He took his bath, anointed his body and having put on costly garments and precious ornaments, with an umbrella decorated by garlands of Korința flowers held over his head, and attended by body-guards bearing weapons of various kinds, he took his seat in a fine chariot, and he went to samavasarana. From a short distance, he got down from his chariot. He went to the Jinéśvara, and having respectfully bowed down at his feet, he took his seat with his eyes fixed on the face of the Jinéśvāra with an unwinking sight. Bhagavana Vardhamāna Swami gave the following sermon :
करयलपरिगलियजलं व गलइ पइसमयमेव जीयमिमं । वाहिजरायंकावियदेहं दूति निच्चपि ॥ १ ॥
अइबहुकिलेससमुवज्जियावि विज्जुव्व चंचला लच्छी । पियपुत्तसयणजोगोऽवि भंगुरो जलतरंगोव्व ॥ २॥
विसर्याfपवासा पिसाइवन्द दुनिग्गहा वह कपि । वामोह जह येवमपि नेव संभवइ वेरग्गं ॥ ३ ॥ अवरावरगिहवावारविरयणावाउलो सयावि जणो । stureमुहं वच्च अणुवज्जियधम्मपाहिज्जो ॥ ४ ॥ एसो चिय मुद्धजणस्स विग्भमो सव्वहाऽविय अजुत्तो । जं पज्जेते धम्मं भोतुं भोगे चरिस्सामो ॥ ५ ॥ जं थेरत्ते पत्ते इयंमि सव्विदिप्पयारंमि I अच्छउ दूरे करणं दुलहं धम्मस्स सवपि ॥ ६ ॥
किं बहुणा भणिणं ? जो बाळत्तेऽवि नायरइ धम्मं । संगामसमयहयसिक्खगोव्ब सो सोअइ विरामे ॥ ७ ॥ इय जयगरुणा नोसेससत्तसाहारणाए वाणीए । मोक्खमुहमूलबीयं कहियं सद्धम्मसव्वस्सं ॥ ८ ॥
