• महावीर दर्शन
"होश भूला एक ग्वाला "
(Song: Couplet) "HOSH BHOOLA EK GWALA"
The suffering did not take away from Mahavir's zeal and the Nirgranth saint, determined as ever, immersed himself in meditation, thus shortening the long voyage and filling it with happiness. The goal which he set out to find, was now very much within his reach. He was pervaded by a feeling of "Satchidanandi shuddh swaroopi❞ that truthful joyous immortal and coveted state. From the depths of this ocean of knowledge he had brought out pearls of tolerance, forgiveness, love and affection. How else could he have accepted the various trying phases with much calm ?
महावीर कथा
Mahavir soon arrived in the city of Kaushambi, where awaiting him was Chandanbala. Strange is the story of this princess, a woman of high birth sold as a slave in the streets of Vaishali. The sacred texts tell us of the Lord's vow. Mahavir had been fasting for 5 months and 25 days, yet had vowed not to accept food unless given by a woman of royal bearing, forced by circumstances to become a servant maid. She would have to have a shaven head, chained body, tears in her eyes and black gram in her hands. Waiting at the door as per his requirements was Chandanbala - "चंदनबाला ! तेरा अद्भुत है इतिहास

Surmounting all kinds of trials, Mahavir, the meditative great saint, completes 12 1/2)years of his "Nirgranth" life and reaches his destination of self-realisation.
....... The afternoon was drawing to a close, the hamlet of chiman on the banks of River Rijuvaluka, amidst the lush greenery of the fields and under the 'Shal' tree.......
....
Yes, it was right below this tree in the "Godohika" (f) position, immersed in "Shukla dhyana" of parakoti the highest state, dwelling in the depths of the ocean of self-meditation that Mahavir grew aware of an intense feeling of being aloof from all kinds of attachments, being "merely a conscious self, the knowing and seeing soul, Pure, completely self-sufficient, alone..."
"सच्चिदानंद शुध्ध स्वरूपी, अविनाशी मैं आत्मा हूँ ।"
(Dhoon: Couplet) "SACHCHIDANANDI SHUDDHA SWAROOPI❞
(34)
AND AS THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIS SOUL'S achievement dawns on him, there appears a serene joyou'sness on his face, the light of the omnipotent, complete Panchamajnana, the Kevala-Jnana and Kevaladarshana - in his soul. Nirgrantha Mahavir, free from all bonds of love and hate has now become self-realised, omnipotent, omnipresent vitarag, Arihant, Tirthankar Bhagawant.....!
...... To have the holy glimpse of thie lord and to hear the divine sermons & preachings, the clean celestial planes of the Devas flew, groups of human beings gathered and animals and birds flocked......
