    Need Anumodha template

    12 months ago 70

    Here is a simple, easy-to-fill Anumodhana template you can customize for your Jain gatherings or daily practice. It keeps the spirit of Anumodhana (expression of joy and approval of virtuous conduct) and can be adapted for different occasions.

    Template (English with Jain spirit)

    • Lokā-samās rake: I offer Anumodhana for the virtuous deed performed today by [Name/Group].
    • Mahā-punya-prācara: May the merit of [the act/discipline/fasting/prajñā practice] spread to all beings.
    • Arihanta-ādi-shrutī: With reverence to the Tirthankaras (Arihants, Siddhas, Sambhavas, Kevalins), I rejoice in this virtuous conduct.
    • Shubha-vāda: May this merit uplift the weaver of karma and guide us toward right conduct, right faith, and right knowledge.
    • For the speaker or doer: I express hearty Anumodhana for [their name], whose [specific action, e.g., charity, study, self-control, service] reflects true Jain ideals.
    • For the community: May all beings benefit from this merit; may peace, compassion, and ahimsa flourish.
    • Closing: Namo Siddhaya, Namo Arihanta, Namo Mahavira. May we all grow in detachment, discipline, and compassion.

    Fill-in-ready version (Sanskrit-influenced style, simple)

    • Anumodayaṁ mama [Name/Group] iti kartavyam, yadā [act/virtuous deed] kartavyaṁ.
    • Punyasya prachāraṇe sarvaiḥ bhūta-snigdhaḥ; yaṁ karmābhivr̥ddhiḥ tat sarvasya hitāya.
    • Arihantānaṁ śravaṇāni; siddhānaṁ sambhavānāṁ ca bhāvanā. Mama anugrahaḥ prāptiḥ.
    • Āhīsa-rahita-dṛḍha-citta, dharmic-vṛtti, samyag-jñānaṁ yaḥ saṅgṛhītaḥ; tasya yujjate Anumodayaḥ.
    • Yeṣāṁ kāryaṁ sadā sādhuṁ bhavati, tasya [Name] prati ahaṁ anugrāhaṁ (Anumodhanaṁ) prakāśaye.

    Notes to customize

    • Use the person’s name and a brief description of the virtuous act (e.g., "yāga-śraddhā, dāna, sāmsāradāna, upāsana, śravaṇa, samayik, pratikraman, nīti-sikāsa").
    • You can add a line of personal reflection: "I acknowledge my own shortcomings and renew my commitment to ahimsa, truth, and non-attachment."
    • If you know the tradition (Digambar or Shwetambar) and the audience, you can adjust phrasing to match common local practice (still keeping the above meaning intact).

    Would you like me to tailor this to a specific occasion (daily pratikraman, a ceremony, or a study circle) and provide a finalized version in Devanagari with a transliteration?
