by being turned entirely upside down; on whomever I may have inflicted pain; whomever I may have frightened; whomever I may have shifted from one place to another; whomever I may have separated from life and made lifeless; May all that be forgiven and may all the suffering I caused, knowingly or unknowingly, cease. May the ignorance in me which caused pain in other beings' lives come to an end, and may they all forgive me.
V. The Vow of Samayik: Recite Karemi Bhante Sutra as presented
below:
A) Sutra: "Karemi Bhante! Samaiyam, Savajjam Jogan Pachchakkhani, Java Niyaman Pajjuvasami, Duviham, Tivihenam, Manenam Vayae Kayenam, Na Karemi Na Karavemi, Tassa Bhante!
Padikkamami, Nindami, Garihami,
Appanam Vosirami."
B) Meaning: I take the vow of refraining from all undesirable activities. 0! Bhagwaan, I will worship you for the duration of Samayik. With the two-fold activities (I will not do and I will not make others do) and with three-fold yoga (namely, with mind, speech and body), I will not overlook any desirable activities. 0! Respected Bhagwaan, I give up all harmful activities of speech and body. I criticize myself for my undesirable actions. I express disapproval of my demerits. I make a determination to free my soul from all demerits.
