monko (Whatever fault is committed) on the basis of empirical stand point or doubt raised by mind (in your words) that all, also to, purify, I am ready to confess in your presence, because, pious, wise people have to make (others) heart free from cause of tormentation, in every respect.
सर्वोऽप्यत्र मुहुर्मुहुर्जिनपते लोकैरसंख्यैर्मितः व्यक्ताव्यक्तविकल्पजालकलितः प्राणी भवेत् संसतौ। तत्तावद्भिरयं मदै(में)व निचितो दोषैर्विकल्पानुगैः
प्रायश्चित्तमियत् कुतः श्रुतगतं शुद्धिर्भवत्सन्निधेः(धौ) ॥१०॥ 10. O Jinapati! every Jiva in this cycle of births and deaths (travels) in
innumerable worlds associated with the ret of clear and unclear thought. Therefore this jiva is always 1o piled up by endless defaults followed by this net of thoughts. For So many faults (innumerable faults) where is scriptural (Agamic) expiation ? Expiation (of them) is (possible) only in your presence.
भावान्तःकरणेन्द्रियाणि विधिवत्संहृत्य बाह्याश्रयान् एकीकृत्य पुनस्त्वया सह शुचिज्ञानकसन्मूर्तिना । निःसङ्गश्रुतसारसङ्गतमतिः शान्तो रहः प्राप्तवान्
यस्त्वां देव समीकृते स लभते धन्यो भवत्सन्निधिम् ॥११॥ 11. O Lord! he who, withdrawing internal and external senses from out
worldly objects in a proper way and uniting (them) with you- the personified pure true knowledge; being detached (from worldlyobjects), understanding, the gist of scriptures, being tranquil and approaching solitude (it) such a one meditates 11 on you, that fortunate one attains your vicinity.
त्वामासाद्य पुराकृतेन महता पुण्येन पूज्यं प्रभु ब्रह्माधरपि यत्पदं न सुलभ तल्लभ्यते निश्चितम् । अईन्नाथ परं करोमि किमहं चेतो भवत्सन्निधौ
अद्यापि ध्रियमाणमप्यतितरामेतद्बहिर्धावति ॥१२॥ 9. Non-violance, truthfulness. non-theft, celibacy, and non-acquisition are called
Mūlagunas, i.e. fundamental virtues. To protect, nourish and purify these fundamental virtues certain other minor virtues are accepted. These are known as Uttaraguna, that is. subsidiary virtues -T.S.-VII. Pub: L. D. Indology.
Ahmedabad. 1974, p. 281. 10. Horo U and J edition reads 'Sadaiva' in place of Madaiva', which is more
correct reading. 11. The word . Samiksate' is used in U and J edition in place of Samikyte: Which is again a more satisfactory reading.
