Obediently following the path of the Lord Jina; Only to realize the pure consciousness, Let the external activities gradually diminish, Until I am fully submerged in my pure self.
Let my feelings be without craving or aversion,
In experiencing the five senses,
Let my mind not be disturbed from fivefold indolence,
Let me follow the destiny with no expectations,
Let me not be influenced by external object, space, time, or mode.
Let my provocation be towards the anger itself, Let my humility extend towards arrogance, Let me remain a calm observer towards deception And avoidance of covetousness towards greed.
Let me become a fully detached monk
Who is carefree of his body's cosmetics,
And one who has conquered all the emotions and passions To be a real saint overcoming all the body infestations.
Let me not be angry towards anyone
Who inflicts deep wounds of pain on me,
Let me have no ego even if an emperor bows to me,
Let me remain carefree even in case of the loss of my life,
And let me have no desire for the priceless worldly achievements.
Let me be like an unshakable monk
Who wanders alone in the crematories or lone mountains;
When.....5
Where he may encounter a tiger or a lion,
He remains steadfast in his equanimity,
As if he is with his best friends.
Let there be no mental stress from severe austerity,
Extending Jain Herilage in Western Environment
When.....6
For Private & Personal Use Only
When.....7
Let me live in a state of equanimity
Towards a friend or a foe;
Let me have no concern for life or death,
And my blissful peace prevail in an embodied or a liberated state.
