Samvatsari Pratikramana
nindia-garahia-duganchhiam sammam.
Tivihena padikkanto, vandämi jine chauvvisam. (50)
I forgive all living beings. I seek pardon from all living beings. I am friendly towards all living beings. I seek enmity (hatred) with none. (49)
I bow down to 24 Tirthankars after purifying the mind, speech and body by contemplating, reprehending, repenting and despising my sins in the presence of a spiritual preceptor. (50)
Sutra to initiate Samayik
Karemi bhante!
Sämäiyam sävajjam jogam
pachchakkhämi,
Jäva niyamam pajjuväsämi, duviham, ti-vihenam, Manenam, väyäe, käenam,
na karemi, na käravemi,
Tassa bhante! Padikkamämi, nindämi, garihämi, Appänam vosirämi. (1)
Oh respected Guruji! I vow to give up all sinful activities. I criticize myself for my wrongful actions. As long as I remain in Sāmāyika, I shall not commit any sinful activity in thought, speech, or action nor shall I encourage anyone to indulge in such activities. Oh! Bhagawan, I hate myself for committing sinful activities. I repent and apologize for the same. I condemn and censure myself for such sinful activities. By the virtue of Sāmāyika, I am determined to free myself from worldly bondage. (1)
