________________ Exposition of Pratikramana Stotras 3. The performer: Three ways an activity can be performed (i) by own self (karana), (ii) to get it done by others (karävana) or (iii) to approve actions of someone else (anumodana). 4: Passions: There are 4 types of passions (i) anger (krodha), (ii) pride (mäna), (iii) deceit (mäyä) and (iv) greed (lobha). One hundred and eight (108) kinds of activities are enlisted in the Jaina Scriptures, which are harmful to the soul. This figure is arrived by taking into account the four (4) different passions, the three (3) actors, the three (3) kinds of activities and the three (3) stages of activities. The result of multiplication of these factors (4x3x3x3) is 108. 34. Vandittu Sutra 57 Object: This is the longest principal aphorism of both night (devasika) and day (räi) Pratikramana. A householder is supposed to observe five ethical codes of conduct (Ächära) and twelve householder vows (bärä vrata). This aphorism is to ask forgiveness, if any transgressions have occurred while observing these vows.
