महादेवस्तोत्र - Mahādeva Stotra ( Hèm )
Mahā krodho, mahā māno, mahā māyā mahā madah; Maha lobho hato yèna, Mahādèvah sa ucyatè. 3.
He, who has complete knowledge capable of enlightening Loka the Universe, and A-loka-the space outside the Universe; who has great compassion ( for living beings ); who has selfcontrol; and who is devoted to religious meditation, is called a great God.
Jain Education International
I really consider him, as a great God, who has conquered, the two very powerful wrestlers,-passion and hatred-which are hard to be conquered; the rest are merely bearing the
name.
He, who has thoroughly overcome great anger, great pride, great deceit, great conceit, and great greed, is called a great God.
यो वीतरागः सर्वशो यः शाश्वतसुखेश्वरः क्लिष्टकर्मकलातीतः सर्वथा निष्कलस्तथा ॥ ४ ॥ यः पूज्यः सर्वदेवानां यो ध्येयः सर्वयोगिनाम् यः स्वष्टा सर्वनीतीनां महादेवः स उच्यते ॥ ५ ॥ -Bnagavan Haribhadra Sūri Aṣṭaka Prakaraṇam.
