Samayik Vidhi (Procedure)
Samayik is a Jain spiritual practice focused on attaining equanimity, self-discipline, and detachment from worldly affairs for a set period, traditionally 48 minutes. Below is a step-by-step written vidhi:
1. Preparation

- Attire: Wear simple, clean clothes, preferably white.
- Materials: Keep a muhapatti (mouth-cloth) and sutra (scripture or prayers) if needed.

Recite the following:
- Namo Arihantanam
- Namo Siddhanam
- Namo Ayariyanam

- Namo Loe Savva-sahunam
- This is the Navkar Mantra.
3. Iryavahi Sutra (Repentance for harm while walking)
Recite: "Iriyavahiyae virahiae... (full sutra as per your tradition)".
4. Samayik Aalochana
Repent for all sins committed knowingly or unknowingly by mind, speech, or body.
5. Samayik Pachchakhkhan (Resolution)
Take the vow: "I will observe Samayik for this period, abstaining from all sinful activities, maintaining equanimity, and treating all beings with compassion."
