Suktimuktavali 99_29

99_29

Thus ends the Sūktimuktāvalī, otherwise titled Sindūraprakara, composed by the venerable Somaprabhācārya.
1. The obeisance to the five supreme beings well known in the Jina's doctrine. 2. kuśalasulabhe in manuscripts ka and kha. 3. After this verse, manuscript ka has the additional verse: "Praiseworthy renunciation in the hand, bowing to the guru's feet upon the head, truth in the mouth, scripture received in the ears, pure conduct in the heart, triumphant prowess in both arms—ah, even without wealth, this is the ornament of those who are naturally great." 4. vimucyanaṃ dūre bhava janamanaḥśarmasadanam in manuscript kha. 5. "And what the light of moon and sun does not dispel—the mud of darkness of men—even that, when this fragment of instruction is constantly listened to, goes to destruction." This reading in manuscript ka is identical to the reading received in the Śṛṅgāravairāgyataraṅgiṇī. Here the author has artfully incorporated his own name, "Somaprabhācārya". 6. This verse is absent in manuscripts kha and ga. 7. munīndranāyakena, "by the leader of great sages".
