FUNDAMENTALS OF JAINISM
Had we but stopped and destroyed the karmas; the wish of the heart we should have had ! a.
मनुष्य को जून दुर्लभ है जो बिरपा हैं इसे खोते। 4
वोह मासानी से मौका फिर नहीं है दूसरा पाते॥ (11) Difficult of attainment is the human form: those who now dissipate it away, Will never easily again obtain another such (golden) chance ?
अहिंसा-धर्म है सच्चा; अहिंसा मूल है तप का। 15
अहिंसा पालने से कम-बन्धन सब हैं सड़ जाते ॥ (12) True is the Dharma? that teaches non-injuring; of saintship non-injuring is the root !
By the observance of the vow on non-injuring are destr oyed the entirety of the chains of karma !
जो देखा गौर से तो प्रात्मा हो देव है सच्चा ।
सेखो संयम इसी के जौहरे असली नज़र पाते ॥ (13) On proper reflection, the soul itself is found to be the truest God !
Joy and self-control would appear properly to appertain to the soul.
खुदा है, देव है, त्रिलोकी का सरताज है, जन है।
तमामो पूज्य गुण हैं जात में इसकी नजर पाते ॥ (14) Khuda is He, He is Deva, too; the crown of Glory of the world, and Jina (Conqueror) !
The infinity of the worshipful attributes all may be seen in Him !
हयाते ला ममातो वा नूरे खालिस, मौत का फ़ातेह ।
मो ऐसा अपने को जानें अवश्य वे सिद्ध-पद पाते॥ (15) Life that is Deathless, Effulgence Pure, the Conqueror, of Death:
7 Religion.
