जयं चरे जयं चिट्ठे जयमासे जयं सए । जयं भुजतो भासंतो पावं कम्म न बंधई ॥
jayam chare jayam chitthe
jayam āse jayam sa-e jayam bhuñjanto bhāsanto pāvam kammam na bandha-ī
Jain Dashvaikālik Sūtra
When you walk, walk with awareness.
When you stand, be mindful that you are standing. When you sit, know what you are doing. When you sleep, remain aware.
When you speak and eat, do not commit any harm
to any living being. In this way, you will stop inviting painful consequences and will no longer create cycles of karmic bondage for yourself.
