Description

भगवान महावीर वह साधक थे, जिनका जीवन स्वयं की आत्मा को समर्पित था और जिनकी आत्मा सदैव आत्म गुणों में विचरण करती थी और उस आत्मा का विचरण क्षेत्र था तपस्या, ध्यान और स्वाध्याया तप भगवान महावीर द्वारा स्वीकारा गया या तप ने प्रभु को स्वीकारा दोनों ही अतिशयोक्ति के दायरे में नहीं आते। भगवान महावीर ने अपने जीवन को साधना को समर्पित कर दिया था। इस समर्पण को खंडित करने के लिए सैकड़ों प्रयास सैकड़ों लोगों के द्वारा किए गए कभी उनके पैरों पर खीर पकाई गई तो कभी कानों में गौशालक द्वारा कील ठोकी गई कभी चंडकौशिक ने डंक लगाया तो कभी गांव वाले लोगों ने डंडो से प्रहार किया पर वह उस वीर को डिगा न पाये। नमन उनकी समता को।

Lord Mahavira was that practitioner whose life was dedicated to his own soul and whose soul always abided in its intrinsic spiritual virtues; and the domain of that soul was penance, meditation, and self-study. Whether penance was accepted by Lord Mahavira or penance accepted the Lord—neither of these statements falls into the realm of exaggeration. Lord Mahavira dedicated his life to spiritual practice. To break this dedication, hundreds of attempts were made by hundreds of people. Sometimes kheer (rice pudding) was cooked on his feet, sometimes nails were hammered into his ears by Goshalak, sometimes Chandakaushik bit him with venom, and sometimes villagers attacked him with sticks, but they could not shake that brave soul. Bows to his equanimity!
