I renounce (myself) from the business of sins.

Discussion - In the second study, the Tirthankaras, who are the preachers of the Samayik vow, which is the renunciation of the Savadya Yoga, such as Pranatipat, etc., have been praised. The Samayik vow, as instructed by the Tirthankaras, can only be obtained by the grace of the Guru Maharaj. For this reason, and because it is the etiquette to perform Pratikraman after paying respects to the Guru, it is necessary to pay respects to the Guru. Therefore, we begin the third study called 'Guru Vandana'.
'Icchami' - Jainism is a religion based on desire. Every sadhak performs every sadhana of his own free will, there is no pressure on him. Sadhana performed without the joy of the mind, or out of reluctance or pressure, is not actually sadhana, but a kind of punishment. Lifeless religious practices, laden with pressure or fear, crush the life of the sadhak instead of elevating it. This is why the word 'Icchami' is used first in every sadhana of Jainism, in the form of 'Icchami Khamasamano', 'Icchami Padikkamami', etc. The meaning of Icchami is - I want, that is, I am desirous of performing this action from the inspiration of my inner mind.
'Khamasamano'
The four words Shramanah, Shamanah, Samanaah, Samanah become 'Samano' in Prakrit. Although there is a slight difference in the meaning of these four words, there is no difference in the meaning.
2. 'Shaman'
is called 'Shaman'.
1. 'Shraman' - One who labors, that is, who works hard in twelve types of austerities, or who suppresses the senses and mind, is called 'Shraman'.

[Essential Sutra

-
3. 'Saman'
One who has equal regard for enemy and friend is called 'Saman'.
4. 'Saman' One who teaches the Jina's teachings well, or who lives by conquering the Kshaya by the power of restraint, is called 'Saman'.
—
The root 'Shramu' is used in the sense of penance and sorrow. Therefore, one who performs penance and remains completely detached from the world is called a Shraman. A Shraman who is full of forgiveness is called a Kshamasraman.
In the Anuyogadwar Sutra, six types of essentials are mentioned
-
'Samaiyam Chauveesatthao, Vandayanam, Padikkamaman, Kaussaggo Pacchakkhanam.'
Of these, Vandana is the third essential. In this, the disciple addresses the Gurudev and says
O Kshamasraman Gurudev! I, with my strength, offer my respects with a body free from the Savadya business, such as Pranatipat, etc.
