Vimalnāth, Anantnāth, Dharmanāth, and Shantināth. (3) I bow to Kunthunath, Aranāth, Mallināth, Munisuvrat-swami, and Naminäth. I bow to Arishta Neminäth, Pärshvanath, and Vardhaman (Mahavir-swāmi). (4) I praise the Arihantas who have been liberated from all karmā that obstruct or hinder the qualities of soul and thereby have broken the cycle of birth and death. These are the twenty-four Lord Jinas or Tirthankaras that bless me. (5) Oh, Arihantas! You are praised, bowed to, and whole-heartedly worshipped. You are the purest souls in the universe. Grant me divine health and Right Faith/Conviction (Bodhi Samyaktva) and the highest state of consciousness. (6) You are purer than the moon and more brilliant than the sun. You are deeper than the oceans. Please assist me to attain liberation. (7)

Oh! Arihant Bhagawan, I wish to undertake Kāyotsarga to offer obeisance to you, to bow to you, to worship you, to express my reverence to you, to respect you, to attain the true wisdom and to attain salvation. I undertake this Kāyotsarga with ever increasing levels of conviction, intellect, patience, determination and contemplation.
After requesting forgiveness from all living beings of the universe, the next step is to discipline one-self in order to avoid future sins. This is done via Kāyotsarga (meditation in motionless body) and introspective meditation on a Jain prayer. This meditation also helps to get rid of our past bad karmas.
