The human body is the best medium for spiritual practice. A Jain monk make full use of his body in spiritual practice. When the body becomes weak as a result of spiritual practices and appears like a burden, then considering that death is very near the practitioner, he special practice prepares himself. Such a preparation is called Samlekhane.
To examine in a proper manner—to examine the self critically is called samlekhane. The entire procedure of samlekhane is crystal clear in the aphorism. Following the special procedure the spiritual practitioner with complete preparation liberating himself from any desire for death or dislike for life and any desire for life or dislike for death, becomes deeply engaged in a state of equanimity. In that period of equanimious state the karmas of endless period turn into an ash and wither away. While engaged in highest state of equanimity the spiritual practitioner discards his attachment for physical body.
Every spiritual practitioner engaged in self-realisation has a latent desire in his heart that he may be blessed with samlekhane. So, daily both the time he recites the lesson "apashchim marnnantik samlekhane', so, that at the fag end of his life he may be blessed with the opportunity to go through samlekhana.
