    May all souls be free from resentment toward me; I release every fault I have shown and seek pardon from every living being, with a pure, growing heart.

    This statement is a Jain vow of forgiveness and self-purification. It expresses:

    • A wish that all beings hold no resentment toward me.
    • A sincere confession of faults I may have shown.
    • A request for pardon from every living being.
    • A resolve to nurture a pure and growing heart.

    In Jain practice, this aligns with the spirit of kshama (forgiveness) and the habit of saying sorry to all beings, sometimes encapsulated in the common greeting Micchami Dukkadam during Paryushan and other occasions. It emphasizes humility, non-violence (ahimsa), and the aim to refine one’s conduct and inner intention.

    Notes on tradition:

    • The sentiment is universally valued in both Digambar and Shwetambar communities, though phrasing and formal prayers may vary slightly between the two traditions.
    • It is often paired with sincere acts of restraint, honest reflection, and committed effort to refrain from the faults mentioned in daily life.

    If you’d like, I can help translate your lines into a traditional Jain formulation or provide a simple, authentic prayer you can recite.
