Samvatsari Pratikramana
267
I bow to the Arihantas (Tirthankars), I bow to the Siddhas or liberated souls, I bow to the Acharyas, who head the order, I bow to the Upadhyays, who are the religious scholars and guides of the scriptures. I bow to all ascetics who strictly follow the five great vows of conduct and inspire us to live a simple life. True bowing to these five types of great souls, help remove all sins and create auspiciousness of the most supreme ovder.
Prayer for removal of all impediments in the spiritual path Uvasagga-haram päsam, Päsam vandämi
kamma-ghana-mukkam.
Visahara-visa-ninnäsam, mangala-kalläna-äväsam. (1) Visahara-phulinga-mantam,
kanthe dhärei jo saya manuo. Tassa gaha-roga-märi, duttha-jarä janti uvasämam. (2) Chitthau dure manto, tujjha panämo vi bahu-phalo hoi.
Nara-tiriesu vi jivä, pävanti na dukkha-dogachcham. (3)
Tuha sammatte laddhe, chintämani-kappa-päya vabbhahie. Pävanti avigghenam, jivä ayarä maram thänam. (4)
Iya santhuo mahäyasa! Bhatti-bbhara-nibbharena hiaena. Tä deva! Dijja bohim, bhave bhave päsa!
Jina-chanda! (5)
