खामेमि सव्व जीवे सव्वे जीवा खमंतु मे मित्तीमे सव्व भूएसु वेरं मज्झ न केणइ ।
सव्वे जीवा कम्म वस चौदह राज भमंत ते मे सव्व खमाविआ मज्झ वि तेह खमंत ॥ khāmemi savva jīve savvejīvā khamantu me
mittīme savva bhū-esu veram majjha na keņa-i savve jīvā kamma vasa chaudaha rāja bhamanta te me savva khamāvi-ā majjha vi teha khamanta
Jain Pratikraman Sūtra (Vanditu)
I forgive all beings; may all beings be willing to forgive me.
I am a friend to all life; I have no ill will toward anyone. All living beings, including myself,
are suffering and reincarnating
throughout the whole universe because of clinging to conditions and habits,
the push and pull of karmas;
through mutual forgiveness, we can bring an end to our suffering. So again, I declare that I forgive everyone
and may everyone forgive me.
