Acharya Kundakunda in his Samayasara draws our attention to this central Truth :रतो बंधदि कम्म मुचदि जीवो विरागसंजुत्तो।
एसो जिणोवएसो तम्हा कम्मेसु मा रज्ज ||१५०॥ The soul with attachment gets bound by karmas but the one with detachment remains free from karmas. So has been declared by Jina, therefore bear no attachment for karmas.
It has been ordained by the great Teachers that we should always try our level best so that our human life may serve its glorious purpose. Jinavani declares. इंद्रियाणि वशे यस्य यस्य दुष्टं न मानसम् ।
आत्म धर्मरतो यस्य सफल तस्य जीवितम ।। His life is crowned with success, who has subjugated his senses, whose mind is far away from wicked machinations and who is habituated to perform noble deeds for common weal. Such noble person prays :
क्षेम सर्वप्रजानां प्रभवतु बलवान् धामिको भूमिपालः । काले काले च सम्यग्वर्षतु मघवा व्याधयो यान्तु नाशम् ॥ दुभिक्षं चौर-मारी क्षणमपि जगतांमास्यभूज्जीवलोके ।
जैनेन्द्रं धर्मचक्र प्रभवतु सततं सर्वसौख्यप्रदायि ॥ May all persons enjoy peace. May the ruler be powerful and protector of Dharma ( Law'). May clouds provide sufficient rain at the right time. May diseases come to an end. Famine, hurglary and pestilence may not trouble the people fora moment. May the Dharma. Chakra of Lorajineshwara the bestower of happinesst tsifall, whital continuously.
