SECTION 6 - Sūtras
Sūtra No. 1 Navakāra Mahāmantra
1. Navakāra Mahāmantra
| 1. Navakara Mahamantra
I bow to the perfect souls (because Arihantas have achieved absolute truth and devote themselves to the uplifting of life on earth.)
I bow to the liberaled souls (because Siddhas possess infinite perception, knowledge, and bliss).
१. नवकार महामंत्र नमो अरिहंताणं ।
नमो सिद्धाणं । नमो आयरियाणं । नमो उवज्झायाणं । नमो लोए सव्व-साहूणं ।
एसो पंच-नमुक्कारो । सव्व-पाव-प्पणासणो । मंगलाणं च सव्वेसिं। पढम हवइ मंगलं ।
Namo Arihantānam. Namo Siddhanam . Namo Ayariyānam Namo Uvajjhāyāņam. Namo Loe Savva-Sahunam . Eso Pancha-Namukkaro. Savva-Pāva-Ppanāsaņo. Mangalānam Cha Savvēsim. Padhamam Havai Mangalam.
I bow to the heads of the religious order (because they have mastered the scriptures and principles of religion) I bow to the preceptors of the scriptures (because they devote their life to teaching.) I bow to the all Sadhus and Sadhvis (because they devote their lives to the selfiess pursuit of enlightment for all).
This fivefold reverence destroys all sins. It is the first and foremost amongst all auspiciousness.

In all, my preceptor possesses these 36 attributes.
