52. Aggi a i i ké vitté, Kési Goamamabbavi; Tao Késim buvantam tu Goamo iņamabbavi.
52. Sramaņa Kési Kumāra asked Gañadhara Mahārāja Indra bhūti Gautama “ Which fires did you say? When Sramaņa Kési Kumāra asked him in this way, Gautama Gañadhara replied thus
कसाया अग्गिणो वुत्ता, सुअसीलतओ जलं । सुअधाराभिहया संता, भिन्ना हुन डहंति मे ॥ ५३ ॥
53. Kasāyā aggiņo vuttā, suasilatao jalam; Suadharābhihayā santā, bhinnā hu na dahanti mé.
53 The four कषायाः Kashayah, Passions (viz 1 कोष Krodha, Anger, 2 मान Mana, Pride, 3. माया Maya, Deceit and 4. लोभ Lobha, Greed) are said to be blazing fires, and श्रन Śruta, the preachings of the Scriptures, gita sila, Celibacy; Abstinence from sexual intercourse, and 79: Tapah, Penance are the water (used for extinguishing the fires ). When crushed by subjecting them to the current of Sruta, Sila and Tapah, these blazing fires do not really burn me.
साहु गोअम! पण्णा ते, छिन्नो मे संसओ इमो । अण्णो वि संसओ मज्झं, तं मे कहसु गोअमा ! ॥ ५४ ॥
54. Sāhu Goama! puņņā te, chhinno mé samsan imo; Aņņo vi samsao majjhani tam me kahasu (Goama!
54.0 Gautama! you are very intelligent. This donbt of of mine bas been removed (by you). I have also another doubt O Gautama ! (please ) tell me that.
अयं साहसिओ भीमो, दुस्सो परिधावइ । जंसि गोअममारूढो, कहं तेण न हीरसि ? ॥ ५५ ॥
