Samvatsari Pratikramana
In regard to knowledge, belief and conduct of a layman's life, the scriptures, the equanimity (sāmāyika), and whatever wrong doing I may have committed in respect to the three-fold restraint vows (guptis), four passions (kashayas), and the five minor vows (anu-vratas).
In regard to three spiritual merit vows (guna-vratas), four spiritual disciplinary vows (shikshā-vratas), the layman's twelvefold rule of conduct that I may have broken or opposed, may those bad deeds of mine be forgiven and become fruitless.
This Sutra is seeking forgiveness for the violations attached to the conduct of the 12 vows of shravak.
Seeking pardon for all sins committed in one's conduct and in one's vows with an overarching prayer to purify one's soul Vandittu savva-siddhe,
dhammäyarie a savva-sähu a. Ichchhämi padikkamiu,
sävaga-dhammäiärassa. (1)
Bowing to the Omniscient pathfinders (Tirthankaras) and liberated souls (Siddhas), the leaders of the monastic congregation (Dharmächärya), and all the monks (Sädhus), I wish to confess for all the wrong doings I may have committed while following layman's vows. (1)
To pray and ask forgiveness for Common code of conduct
Jo me vayäiyäro, näne taha dansane charitte a. Suhumo va bäyaro vä, tam ninde tam cha garihämi. (2)
