________________ Verse 139 चतुरावर्त्तत्रितयश्चतुःप्रणामः स्थितो यथाजातः । सामयिको द्विनिषद्यस्त्रियोगशुद्धस्त्रिसन्ध्यमभिवन्दी ॥१३९॥ सामान्यार्थ - जो चारों दिशाओं में तीन-तीन आवर्त करता है, चार प्रणाम करता है, कायोत्सर्ग से खड़ा होता है, बाह्याभ्यन्तर परिग्रह का त्यागी होता है, दो बार बैठकर नमस्कार करता है, तीनों योगों (मन, वचन, और काय) को शद्ध रखता है और तीनों सन्ध्याओं में वन्दना करता है, वह सामयिक प्रतिमाधारी है। The householder who, standing in the kāyotsarga (nonattachment with the body), does three āvarta (turning round the joined palms clockwise) and one salutation each in the four directions, is rid of all external and internal attachments, performs two reverences in the sitting position (in the beginning and at the end of the sāmayika), maintains the purity of the three activities (of the mind, the speech and the body), and thus makes obeisance in the three times (morning, noon, and evening) of the day, is called the sāmayika śrāvaka (third stage). EXPLANATORY NOTE Jain, Champat Rai explains: Briefly put, the sāmayika śravaka is he who performs sāmayika three times a day. This consists in performing āvarta (joining the palms of both hands and moving them from right to left) three times in each direction, salutation to the Tīrthankaras, adoration of one or more of the twenty-four Arhantas (Gods), and the like.
