vow for any reason such as performing additional religious rituals or due to unavoidable circumstances. For example: If someone fortunate enough to have accepted the vows to do Navkarshi is unable to relieve his/her vow 48 minutes after sunrise due to reasons like listening to a religious discourse or being engrossed in devotional rites at the Derasar or due to unforeseen circumstances, even then the benefits of Mutthisahiyam Pacchakkhan are still accrued. Meaning, he/she still remains in cessation until then. (Sarva-Virati is complete cessation, desh-virati is partial cessation and a-virati is non-cessation of sinful activities).
All accepted vows right from Namukkarsahiyam to Tivihar Upvas should be relieved by performing proper procedural rites. The procedure is as follows:
Recite the sutras from Shri Irivahiyam to Logassa sutra
Perform khamasaman and say, "Icchakaren sandisah bhagwan! Chaityavandan karu? Iccham”. (Oh Lord, I am desirous of performing Chaityavandan? May I? Yes) and recite the sutras from Jagchintamani to Jayviyarai and perform chaityavandan.
Perform khamasaman and say, “Icchakaren sandisah bhagwan! Sajjhai karu? Iccham”
Sit in the Godohika posture (positioned as if milking a cow) and recite Shri Navkar mantra and Shri Mannah Jinanam sutra (respected sadhu/sadhviji bhagwants recite the first chapter of Dashvaikalik sutra).
Stand up; perform khamasaman and say,” Icchakaren sandisah bhagwan! Muhapatti padilehu? Iccham”.
Carry out inspection of the muhapatti and body with the proper rituals and while reciting the 50 versess of such inspection.
Perform another khamasaman and say, “Icchakaren sandisah bhagwan! Pacchakkhan paaru? Yathashakti”.
