Uttam kshama is the highest or supreme form of forgiveness in Jainism. It means staying calm, letting go of anger, and choosing mercy even when wronged. It is praised in both Digambar and Shwetambar traditions and is the first virtue among the ten Dashalakshana (disciplines). It also ties to the Dashalakshana parva and the practice of Micchami Dukkadam (forgiveness) during Samvatsari.
