[jinastuti/jina's praise] How can a man lose reverence for you? (They can't)

[Vyom A. Shah]

परस्पराक्षेपविलुप्तचेतसः स्ववादपूर्वापरमूढनिश्चयान्।

समीक्ष्य तत्त्वोत्पथिकान् कुवादिनः कथं पुमान् स्याच्छिथिलादरस्त्वयि?॥

[परस्पर-आक्षेप-विलुप्त-चेतसः। स्व-वाद-पूर्व-अपर-मूढ-निश्चयान्।
समीक्ष्य। तत्त्व-उत्पथिकान्। कु-वादिनः। कथम्। पुमान्। स्यात्। शिथिल-आदरः। त्वयि॥]

{parasparākṣepaviluptacetasaḥ svavādapūrvāparamūḍhaniścayān.
samīkṣya tattvotpathikān kuvādinaḥ kathaṃ pumān syācchithilādarastvayi?..}

Seeing the perverse debaters, whose minds are ruined by mutual accusations, who are ignorant of east and west of their final conviction, and who are treading on deviated path—how can a man lose reverence for you? (They can't.)
