JAINISM AND BUDDHISM
Annyebhyo vyatiriktamâtma niyatam vibhrat

vasthi tam. Madhyâdyanta vibhaga mukta sahaja sphara

sandhârana mátmaniha. " When the knowledge of the soul, being freed from else-where, steadfast in the soul, having its substance freed from others, above giving up or grasping anything, assumes its own nature, then its grandeur bursts forth without any distinction of beginning, end and middle and he remains eternal, full of the pure mass of knowledge. One who has kept one's full power within oneself has given up all that was to be given up and has taken in all that was to be taken in.”
The Jain Saint Pujyapada Swami says in Samadhi Sataka :
स्वबुढ्य यावदगृहणीयात्कायवाक् चेतसां त्रयम् । .. FERHleagi #TITÀ I festa: 11 21 Svabuddhya yâvad grihnî yật kâya vak chetasâm
