________________ Samvatsari Pratikramana 83 I shall now engross myself in meditation in a completely motionless yoga posture (Käyotsarga) for a specified duration. I will remain motionless except for breathing in and out, coughing, sneezing, yawning, belching, involuntarily losing balance, vomiting, fainting, subtle flickering movements of the eyes and other involuntary bodily movements. I shall perform meditation and keep myself (my soul) away from all sinful activities by keeping my body motionless and by observing complete silence. At the conclusion of meditation, I will complete the Käyotsarga by offering salutation to Arihants. Observe kausagga of 'Atichaar ni gaatha' or eight navkar. Then recite one Logassa. Atichar ni Gatha Description and confession of five ethical codes of conduct: right knowledge, right faith, right conduct, right penance and spiritual strength Nānammi dansanammi a, Il charanammi tavammi M y taha ya virayammi, Ayaranam āyaro, ih eso panchahā bhanio.
