Kunjarakarna Dharmakathana
The doctrine of final liberation (mokṣa) from the cycle of rebirth, sought by Kuñjarakarṇa and taught by the Buddha.
There are two of us who would be taught the supreme truth of the *dharma*, So that there may be no obstacle for me in finally reaching the feet of the Lord Jina, For I do not desire to take refuge in the fruit of a lesser heaven, a mere external sanctuary.
Since you wish to attain the supreme state, the path to *mokṣa*, listen.
My freedom from rebirth, the means to *mokṣa*, is what I ask at the feet of the Lord of Jinas.
San Hyan Kamahayanikan
The ultimate liberation from suffering and saṃsāra, the final goal of practice.
Likewise, if there is affliction in the world of your body, it is not wrong for you to prepare medicine, so that your body may be whole, creating happiness, creating a proper foundation, creating *samādhi*, which is the cause of finding *mokṣa*.
It is the unsurpassable, supreme, perfect bliss of enlightenment, the bliss of *mokṣa*.
You will always be far from finding *mokṣa*.
