Jain Pratikramana Sūtra (Santhārā Porasi)
I am alone in this world; nothing belongs to me and I belong to none.
With this awareness, I can be in command of my mind and
keep it above self-pity.
Though I appear alone, my soul is in immortal company, equipped with infinite energy,
knowledge, and vision; all else is external, comes and goes, due to ever-changing conditions
and associations.
