By what one crosses the flood and the ocean

Śag_9.1

By what does one cross the {{ogha:flood|the flood of saṃsāric defilements}}, and by what does one get across the ocean? By what does one cast off suffering? By what is one purified?

Śag_9.2

By faith one crosses the flood, and by diligence the ocean; by energy one casts off suffering; by wisdom one is purified.
