26_21

Who arises for the sake of liberation, with a mind eager to cast off transmigration, / whom they call a ford because of its purifying power, than whom there is none other equal, / to whom the Lord of Tīrthankaras bows, from whom the welfare of the good arises, / whose radiance is supreme, and in whom virtues dwell—let that community be worshipped! // 22 // / Fortune approaches him of her own accord in haste; fame embraces him; / love attends upon him; intelligence strives with longing to attain him; / the splendor of heaven desires to embrace him constantly; liberation gazes upon him— / the one who, delighting in the highest good, serves the community, the play-house of a multitude of virtues. // 23
