________________ 232 देवतामूर्ति-प्रकरणम् सत्रधार मणडन रचित देवता-मूर्ति-प्रकरण का सातवां अध्याय पूर्ण हुआ। This world revolves and moves in search of mukti (salvation), but, even so, many devas (gods), daityas, pishachas and rakshasas (different classes of demons), the semi-divine gandharvas and yakshas, humans (nara), mriga (deer) and other animals are unable to attain salvation. Only the One, Shree Veetaraga, is blissfully subinerged or. dissolved in the path of salvation. That One, the Jina, who is the cause and the object of total bliss, is venerated by the deities, the ganas, humans and other forms of life. (76). Here ends the seventh chapter of the treatise on architecture composed by Sutrabhrin Mandan, son of Sri Kshetra, in which the twenty-four images of the Jinas, the associated yakshas and yakshinis, and so forth have been discussed.
