Vandanä means paying respect to all ascetics such as Ächäryas, Upadhyayas, and other Sädhus and Sadhvis. We perform Obeisance to Ascetics by reciting 'Suguru Vandana' sutra. We also atone for whatever faults might have been indulged by us knowingly or unknowingly and at the same time, we resolve (atone) that we will keep away from all such sins in future. The complete obeisance to ascetics is done during Pratikraman by reciting 'Suguru Vandana' sutra
