101
Conquer thy unconquered senses By unmutilated knowledge, faith and conduct, Follow thee a śramana's life, rightly acquired. Oh Lord ! Conquering all obstructions, Live thee in perfection, By penance, overpower attachment and hatred, - The two mighty wrestlers, Vigorously gird thy loin with steadfastness, Crush the enemy, the eight karmas, by meditation — Best and purest. Being uninfatuated, Bear the banner of spiritual practices. Oh hero ! In the arena of the three worlds, Gain kevala knowledge and faith, supreme and best, With no stain of obscurity. Attain thee the highest state of liberation By treading on the straight path, As advised and chalked out by the best of Jinas. Bravo ! You have beaten the battalion of obstructions Victory to thee ! A bull among the ksatriyas. By fearing not sundry omens and obstructions, For many days, fortnights, months and seasons. For many half-years and years full Are thee capable of fortitude and rest Even when in the midst of fear or danger.
May thy path be harm-free.” So saying they shouted “victory' incessantly.
