Aham tiththayara-maya sivadevi tumha nayar-nivasini
Amha sivam tumha sivam asivovasamam sivam bhavatu swaha. (22)
I, Shivadevi, mother of Tirthankar Neminath, am a resident of your town. May we attain peace, may you attain peace, may every one's troubles get eradicated and thus may everyone attain peace (22)
(24784) Upasargaha kshayam yanti chhidhyante vighnavallayaha;
Manah prasannataameti pujyamane jineshware. (23)
By praying to the Jineshwars, difficulties get resolved, solutions are found to tackle the troubles and the mind becomes peaceful. (23)
Sarvamangal maangalyam sarvakalyan karanam; Pradhanam sarvadharmanam jainam jayati shasanam. (24)
The one that is the best among the rest, one that is beneficial to all, the most prominent among the religions, may the Jain order prosper. (24)
Haribhadrasuri Maharaj had two nephews - Hans and Paramhans, who were also his disciples. Once they went to a Buddhist school to learn their religion. The Buddhists found out and planned to kill them. The two disciples escaped from the school, pursued by the Buddhist monks. One of them was killed on the way while the other one reached the upashray and and threw his book into the upashray and was then killed. The book contained this sutra. So it is not sure whether this sutra was written by the disciple or by Shivadevi, mother of Tirthankar Arishtanemi, as her name is mentioned in the second last verse.
