Preface On the occasion of the Pratishta Mahotsava in Boston, Massachusetts, in Vira Samvata 2528 (2002 AD), the Jain Center of Greater Boston (JCGB) Pathasala published the first edition of this booklet of popular Jain Pathasalasa. JCGB Pathasala students sing many of these Pathasalasa before each session of Pathasala. These Pathasalasa, when sung in unison by youth and adults together, generate a unique feeling of spirituality. we have also produced an audiotape accompanying this booklet. In addition to providing the Sanskrit, Praksta, and Hindi Pathasalasa in the original Devanagari script, we have also presented the corresponding transliterations and translations. We assume that most of the first generation of immigrants are familiar with the Devanagari script. Therefore, they should be able to read the Pathasalasa in Devanagari, and should also be able to recite these prayers with correct pronunciations to their children. Having listened to these prayers from their teachers and parents, and having a reasonalbe understanding of the English versions written using diacritical marks, children should be able to recite these Prarthanasa with correct pronunciations. We have presented a guide to the diacritical marks on the previous page. We believe that it is important to maintain the correct pronunciations of the original languages. Without diacritical marks, a word Pandava can be pronounced in seventeen different ways. However, it is important to study the transliteration code before attempting to read transliteration. As English sounds do not exactly correspond with the sounds of Indian languages, Enlish characters often have to be modified by special marks to convey the original sounds, we call these special marks "diacritics." The transliteration tables that we have prepared will make the learning of this system easy. The illustrated guide is used by all academia, except for few minor changes that recently have become more common in every day usage. The transliteration tables on the previous page are self-explanatory. we wish to emphasize the importance of preserving the original Sanskrit and Praksta texts. The true expression of our religious texts can only be achieved by preserving the original languages in which they were composed. One can easily see how meaning is lost in attempts to translate Sanskrit words such as "dharma," "karma," and "Moksha" into English. In this case, the simple English equivalents of "religion," "action," and "liberation" do not even come close to expressing the deep spiritual significance of the original Sanskrit or Prakrta words. Therefore, if we abandon our original vocabulary, we also abondon the ideas that our vocabulary was created to express. Proper application of diacritical marks remains a diificult issue especially for unclear nasal sounds. We have used the Pratikramana Sutara book by Muni Shri Nirvana Sagara as the reference for our booklet. We have taken care to avoid mistakes in transliteration and spellings in the Devanagari script. For any mistakes in this booklet, please accept our sincere Michchhami Dukkadam, we encourage your comments and suggestions. Acknowledgement We want to thank Darshana Shah and Mukesh Doshi for editing this book and providing valuable suggestions. Our special thanks to Premal and Kashmira Vora of Kreate & Print for their assistance in printing and graphic design.

Darsanapa Darshan Path is usually sung while performing the darshan of Bhagavana. In general a person looks back on all the false beliefs he/she was following blindly and on all of his/her accumulating karmas. Now having realized the right path, the person prays for forgiveness and guidance from Bhagavana. The following is the meaning of the prayer. O Lord ! I pray to you to gather the strengh, the knowledge, and the energy to shed my karmas and help me get rid of this cycle of birth and death. O Lord ! all this time, I have been ignorant by not recognizing your virtues and I worshipped other gods. Ignorantly, I always thought what little knowledge ! had was sufficient. (1) This sensual and materialistic world has put a vell over my true perceptions. Because of this lack of knowledge. I have forgotten my true self, and I am wandering in this painful cycle of many births and deaths. This moment is blissful this day is blissful and so is my birth, because I feel forunate enough to be one with you. (2) O Lord ! You have rid yourself of all worldly attachments; your eyes are focused in meditative posture; your body is in its purest form, where it is covered by nothing but the four directions, you are adorned by eight Pratiharyas. You have an infinite amount of good qualities contained wihtin you. Even the brightness of millions of sun is not comparable to your radiant face. O Lord ! just by your mere glimpse, my dark cloud of frisehood has vanished and the brightness of right knowledge has appeared. I have never felt so blissful before; I am but a beggar that has acquired an invaluable jewel. (3) O Lord! I bow to you because you are the greatest. I bow to you as the supreme lord of the three worlds. You have stopped the cycle of the birth and death forever, and you are the one who has given me the right knowledge to do the same. O Lord! I do not ask for heavenly abode, kingdom or family, nor do I ask for any worldly pleasures. The poet 'Budhjan' and I pray to become your devotee in all future lives until I get liberated. (4)

Even an obeisance offered to you will result in many good things. Because of your prayers, human beings and animals will not suffer from sickness and poverty. Upon attaining right faith (as preached by you), which is more valuable than the most precious heavenly jewels, the living beings easily attain the place of immortality. Oh greatly renowned (Lord Parsvanatha), I have eulogized you with a heart full of devotion. Bestow upon me the seeds of attaining perfect knowledge in all my future births.
