प्रशमरतिप्रकरणम्
यद्वद्विशोषणादुपचितोऽपि यत्नेन जीर्यते दोषः ।। तद्वत्कपिचितं निर्जस्यति संवृतस्तपसा ॥१५९।।
Just as exceedingly enhanced disease is eradicated by endeavour (such as fasting etc.); similarly accumulated Karma of Jiva is annihilated sby austerity, in case of one who has stopped the inflow of Karma. 159
लोकस्यास्तिर्यग् + विचिन्तयेदूर्ध्वमपि च बाहत्यम् । सर्वत्र जन्ममरणे रूपिद्रव्योपयोगांश्च ॥१६॥
One should reflect on the expansion of the lower, middle and upper regions of the universe; on births and deaths (enjoyed in every region) and on matters having form (which are) enjoyed in different regions). 160 .. .. ..
.. धर्मोऽयं स्वाख्यातो जगद्धितार्थ' जिनैर्जितारिगणैः । .. यत्र 7 रतास्ते संसारसागर लीलयोत्तीर्णाः ॥१६१।।
One has (to reflect on) this path of (religious) virtue which is well preached by Jinas, the conquerers of passions, for the welfare of the "world. (Those) who are constantly devoted to this play fully (easily) cross the ocean of mundane life. 161 मानुष्यकर्मभूम्यार्यदेशकुलकलूपतायुरुपलब्धौं । ...
... श्रद्धाकथकश्रवणेषु सत्स्वपि -सुदुर्लभा बोधिः ॥१६२।।

One may be born among human beings; in the land of religious
tions; in Aryan region; in good family; with good health; long life; and obtaining right faith; (proper) teacher and listening (to religious discourses). Still right knowledge is very difficult to attain to. 162
तां दुर्लभां भवशतैलब्ध्वाऽप्यतिदुर्लभा पुनर्विरतिः । मोहाद्रागात् कापथविलोकनाद्गौरववशाच्च ॥१६३।।
Even obtaining that rare (knowledge) after hundreds of births, renu-- nciation of worldly desires is very rare on account of infatuation, "attachment, contemplation on evil course (or pat) and due to (worIdly) prosperity and pleasures. 163
