All the sutras in pratikraman
Here is the standard set of sutras and key components commonly recited in Pratikraman. Note that the exact sequence and names can vary slightly between Shvetambar and Digambar traditions, but the core sutras remain the same: confession, forgiveness, and renewal of vows.
- Navkar Mantra (Namokar Mantra) – bowing to Arihanta, Siddha, Acharya, Upadhyaya, and Sadhu-sadhvi.
- Iriyavahiyam Sutra or Guru/Deva Vandana – reverence to the guru and to devas; a preparatory bowing.
- Kayotsarga – meditation in the motionless, detached posture.
- Logassa Sutra – reverence and praise to the 24 Tirthankaras (Arihants) and Siddhas.
- Swastika or Swastikar – a short Invocatory prayer recited during kayotsarga.
- Khamemi Savve Jiva Sutra – confession and seeking forgiveness from all living beings.
- Samayik Sutra – vow to observe equanimity for a fixed period (usually 48 minutes).
- Alochana Sutra – confession of faults (sin-confession to purify mind and speech).
- Pratikraman Sutra (the main penance text) – comprehensive admission of transgressions and repentance.
- Tassa Michchhami Dukkadam (Michchhāmi Dukkadam) – seeking forgiveness from all living beings for any harm caused.
- Pratyakhyan Sutra (Pachchakhkhan) – vow to avoid specific faults in the future; renunciation of bad conduct.
- Pachchakhkhan Sutra – often paired with Pratyakhyan as part of the self-restraint vows.
- Manglik Sutra – concluding prayers/blessings and auspicious end of the rite.
Important note about tradition-specific variants:
- Digambar and Śvetāmbara traditions may differ in the exact sequence and in which sutras are emphasized or named differently (e.g., some lists call additional short stavans or omit certain items in daily vs. annual observances). The essence remains the same: admit faults, seek forgiveness, and renew vows.
Would you like me to provide the spoken/sung text (Prakrit) for any of these sutras, with a clear Digambar vs. Śvetāmbara note? Also, I can point you to a page on JainKnowledge that enumerates these sutras in more detail. You can read more here
