Devanagari script
तपोनित्येन दान्तेन मुनिना संयतात्मना | अजित जेतुकामेन भाव्यं सड्लेष्वसज्धिना,जो जितेन्द्रिय है, जिसने मनपर अधिकार प्राप्त कर लिया है तथा जो अजित पदको जीतनेकी इच्छा करता है, नित्य तपस्यामें संलग्न रहनेवाले उस मुनिको आसक्ति-जनक भोगोंसे अलग--अनासक्त रहना चाहिये
Translation
ਜੋ ਜਿਤੇਂਦ੍ਰੀ, ਸੰਯਤ-ਆਤਮਾ ਮੁਨੀ ਨਿੱਤ ਤਪ ਵਿੱਚ ਰਤ ਹੈ ਅਤੇ ‘ਅਜਿਤ’ ਪਦ ਨੂੰ ਜਿੱਤਣਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ, ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਆਸਕਤੀ ਪੈਦਾ ਕਰਨ ਵਾਲੇ ਭੋਗਾਂ ਵਿਚ ਰਹਿੰਦਿਆਂ ਵੀ ਅਨਾਸਕਤ ਰਹਿਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ।
