Oh! Arihant Bhagawan, I wish to undertake Kayotsarga 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 Kayotsarga 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 Kayotsarga (meditation in motionless body) and introspective meditation on a Jain prayer. This meditation also helps to get rid of our past bad karmas.
