1. If the Jinėśvara-the only crest-jewel of the three worldsspeaks false-hood, then, why do you practise this tapo-vidhāna (rigorous austerity) by his injunctions ?
2. Having renounced kingdom and country, and having taken diksā at his command, are you not ashamed now to defile his word ?
3. If by a fault of carelessness, a false-hood is spoken, then, purification again results by alocană (confession before the guru) and by nindă (censure of the misconduct) etc.
4. Tinerefore, leaving off false assumptions, go to the Jinégvara-the only illuminator of the world-make atonement before him. Do not waste your life uselessly.
5-6. The man, who has no faith even in one syllable of the Āgamas of the Jinéśvaras, acquires Mithyâtva (wrong belief) and through it, he has an increase of samsara. Thereby, he acquires a succession of unendurable, endless, and unavoidable miseries during his existence as a Kilbisik (sinful) god, as a lower animal, and as a human being.
7. Even a great mass of sins, destroyed by a strong faith in the meanings of the Siddhāntas of the Jinéśvaras, does not again attain its former state, like a mass of clouds dispersed by rough winds.
8. When he (Jamali) was made acquainted with the real meanings with arguments of various kinds by the venerable ascetics, he suddenly became sijent.
