13.
Bhagavan Mahavira would not care whether or not his meal included cooked savoury vegetables, whether he got cold rice, or stale bean-soup; whether his meals consisted of vapid stuff like powdered gram or only grams; whether or not he got any food at all. In all such situations, he would maintain total equipoise.
१४. अवि झाति से महावीरे, आसणत्थे अकुक्कुए झाणं ।
उड्ढमहे तिरियं च, पेहमाणे समाहिमपडिण्णे ॥ 14. Avi jhāti se mahavire, āsaņatthe akukkue jhānam.
Uddhamahe tiriyam ca, pehamāņe samāhimapadiņne.. 14. Completely calm and poised, the Bhagavan would
meditate, squatting in cock-posture or any other posture. He would meditate on various objects of the upper, lower, and the lateral worlds. He had his mind's eye firmly fixed on self-absorption.

15. Becalming all his passions (such as, anger, conceit,
deceit and avarice), abandoning all kinds of attachments, and lulling all kinds of infatuation with (sensuous) sound or form, Bhagavan Mahavira would meditate. Always exerting himself in self-discipline, despite the veils of kar ma (such as knowledge-ob
scuring karma), he never slackened for a moment. १६. सयमेव अभिसभागम्म, आयतजोगमायसोहीए ।
अभिणिव्वुडे अमाइल्ले, आवकहं भगवं समिआसी॥ 16. Sayameva abhisamägamma, åyatajogamayasohie.
Abhiņivvude amâille, avakaham bhagavan samiäsi..
