Annexe : 265
d) Universal prayer of the Jains
“Cessation of sorrow, cessation of “karma”, death while in meditation, attainment of enlightenment; Oh holy Jina! Friend of the entire Universe let these be mine, for I have taken refuge at your
feet.”
7. The immortal hymn of fraternity
"Let the flood of friendship flow always from my heart! Let the Universe be prosperous, so is my dearest desire! Let my heart sing with ecstasy at the view of the virtuous! Let my life be an offering to their feet! Let my heart bleed at the view of the disabled, the cruel and the poor!
Let tears of compassion flow from my eyes! May I be here, always, to show the way to those who wander about in their life! May I wait them patiently, if they do not follow me! May the spirit of good will enter in their heart! May we sing all, together, the immortal hymn of fraternity!
