(९) निर्जरा-भावना
(इन्द्रवंशत्ताम् ) केन प्रकारेण पुरात्मदर्शिनः, कृत्वाऽखिला कर्मगणस्य निर्जराम् । ज्ञानं निराबाधमलं प्रपेदिरे, त्वं चिन्तयतच्छुभभावनावशः ॥६६॥
Meaning :- These spiritual persons who have flourished in the past have obtained perfect knowledge that cannot be invalidated by any of the proofs. So long as the Karmas as knowledge - obstructing etc. are existing, such a perfect knowledge is never obtained. In this ninth Reflection called Karmic Dissipation, the author proposes to fully discuss the problem as to how these spiritually great persons cut off the obstructing causes, and what means they adopted in order to work out complete destruction of the knowledge - obstructing Karmas etc. which way they treated upon and by what efforts they attained unobstructed perfect knowledge. Oh! good person ! think over these things in this ninth Reflection. (66)
