FOUR BHAVNAS OR VIRTUES

BESIDES THE TWELVE BHAVNAS DESCRIBED ABOVE JAINISM HAS LAID GREAT IMPORTANCE ON THE

FOLLOWING FOUR BHAVNAS OR VIRTUES.

·         AMITY, LOVE, AND FRIENDSHIP - MAITRI

·         APPRECIATION, RESPECT AND JOY - PRAMODA

·         COMPASSION - KARUNA

·         EQUANIMITY AND TOLERANCE- MADHYASTHA

FOLLOWING SONG DESCRIBES THESE FOUR BHAVNAS, AND THE TRANSLATION IS AS FOLLOWS:

MAY THE SACRED STREAM OF AMITY

FLOW FOREVER IN MY HEART.

MAY THE UNIVERSE PROSPER,

SUCH IS MY CHERISHED DESIRE.

MAY MY HEART SING WITH ECSTASY

AT THE SIGHT OF THE VIRTUOUS.

MAY MY LIFE BE

AN OFFERING AT THEIR FEET.

MAY MY HEART BLEED AT THE SIGHT OF

THE WRETCHED, THE CRUEL, THE IRRELIGIOUS.

MAY TEARS OF COMPASSION

FLOW FROM MY EYES.

MAY I ALWAYS BE THERE TO SHOW THE PATH

TO THE PATHLESS WANDERERS OF LIFE.

YET IF THEY SHOULD NOT HEARKEN TO ME,

MAY I BIDE IN PATIENCE.

MAY THE SPIRIT OF GOODWILL

ENTER ALL OUR HEARTS.

MAY WE ALL SING IN CHORUS

THE IMMORTAL SONG OF HUMAN CONCORD
