________________ Sthānē Gabhira HỊdayõdadhi Sambhavāyāḥ | Piyūṣatām Tava Girah Samudirayanti || Pitvā Yataḥ Paramasammadasangabhājā ! Bhavyāḥ Vrajanti Tarasāpyajarāmaratvam 11 21 || It is but proper that people call your holy speech, which has arisen from the ocean of your deep heart, as "nectarlike", for, the exhalted souls, who have attained immense bliss by drinking the nectar in the form of your speech (Sermon), attain to the position of immortality at once. The idea is that just as men become immortal by drinking nectar, so also people become ageless and immortal after listening to your holy words. Thus, because the lord's speech acts like nectar, it is quite proper that people should call it as 'nectar' 112111 આઠમું સ્મરણ-૧૭૭ Eight Invocation-177 ૧૨ Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
