Samvatsari Pratikramana
inner enemies, I praise you, O omniscient, the twenty-four Tirthankaras. (1)
I bow to Rishabhadev, Ajitnāth, Sambhavnath, Abhinandan, Sumatinath, Padmaprabha, Supärshva, and Chandraprabhu. (2) I bow to Suvidhinath or Pushpadanta, Shitalnath, Shreyansnäth, Vāsupujya, Vimalnath, Anantnäth, Dharmanath, and Shantinath. (3)
265
I bow to Kunthunath, Aranath, Mallinath, Munisuvrat-swami, and Naminäth. I bow to Arishta Neminäth, Pärshvanäth, and Vardhaman (Mahavir-swami). (4)
I praise the Arihantas who have been liberated from all karma that obstruct or hinder the qualities of soul and thereby have broken the cycle of birth and death. These are the twenty-four Lord Jinas or Tirthankaras that bless me. (5)
Oh, Arihantas! You are praised, bowed to, and whole-heartedly worshipped. You are the purest souls in the universe. Grant me divine health and Right Faith/Conviction (Bodhi Samyaktva) and the highest state of consciousness. (6)
You are purer than the moon and more brilliant than the sun. You are deeper than the oceans. Please assist me to attain liberation. (7)
Paying obeisance to Lord and preceptor (with five organs of the body) Ichchhämi khamä-samano!
Vandium, jävanijjäe nisihiäe, matthaena vandämi. (1)
'With all my devotion and by renouncing all wrongful acts, I bow down (to the Tirthankar's image or Ascetics).' (1)
