प्रभूतचित्तो च अकुब्जगात्रो उत्तप्तवर्णो यथ सुवर्णबिंबं ।
दृढसमाधि च असंप्रवेधी वादेत्व वाद्यं जिनचेतियेषु ॥ ५५५ ॥
prabhūtacitto ca akubjagātro uttaptavarṇo yatha suvarṇabiṃbaṃ |
dṛḍhasamādhi ca asaṃpravedhī vādetva vādyaṃ jinacetiyeṣu || 555 ||
Large of heart and straight of limb, radiant in beauty like the golden amaranth, firm in concentration and unshaken, does he become who has played on an instrument of music at the Conqueror’s shrines. (555)
