Samvatsari Pratikramana
Äsäyanäe Jo me aiyaro kao, tassa khamä-samano! Padikkamämi, nindämi, garihämi, appänam
vosirämi. (7)
Oh! Forgiving Gurudev, I want to bow to you, by keeping away all faults and by surrendering myself to you. By bowing my head, I ask your forgiveness for the faults that I may have committed while undertaking any religious activities. While discarding all non-virtuous activities, I touch your feet. Please pardon me, if that has discomforted you in any way. I want to bow to you while inquiring about your well-being and atoning for any disrespect. Has your day passed peacefully and without much distress or discomfort? Oh ! Gurudev, I beg your pardon for any violations of vows committed by me and I will refrain from any unworthy acts like anger, pride, deception, greed, hate, and dislike that violate the right practices of the religion. I will atone for whatever faults I might have indulged in at any time. In your presence, I atone for the same, and I (my soul) will keep away from all such sins in the future.
Ichchhā-kārena sandisaha bhagavan ! Samapta khāmanenam Abbhutthiomi, abbhintara samvatchchhariam khāmeum?
