WOMEN AS DEFENDERS OF THE FAITH 171 nectar of Jina teaching, having given up the false impressions of the mind, and being filled with desire to attain to the purity set forth in the doctrine, having given up all, saying, 'Not so much as a gain is mine', Jakkavve thinking on her god, came to a decision. Thus placing herself at the lotus feet of Jina, fixing her eyes on the tip of the nose, and listening to the words of the Āgama, with ears and eyes having completed samnyasana, by the rite of samādhi”, Jakkavve died. 1
