One who is like the past king of Saavasti nagari, whose body is like a vast elephant, whose heart is like a steady rock, one who possesses a gait like that of an elephant, is worthy of praise, whose arms are as strong as the trunk of an elephant, whose complexion shines like melting gold, possessor of the best qualities, most good-looking and peaceful, whose speech pleases the ears and gladdens the mind and is immensely likeable. One whose voice is sweeter than the sound of dundubhi (a musical instrument), who utters only kalyankari (beneficial) words, one who has won over all his adversaries, conquered his fears, eliminated the cycle of birth and death. I bow down to Shri Ajitnathswami, Oh Lord! Please help me achieve peace! (9,10)
