Here are simple Jain verses (shanti-related ideas) and a brief note on how Digambar and Shvetambar traditions differ in their understanding of shanti.

Simple Jain verse (easy to recite)

• Navkar Mantra (Namokar Mantra) — salutations to the five supreme groups

Om Namah Arihantānam Om Namah Sahebānānam Om Namah Siddhānam Om Namah Ayariyānam Om Namah Uvajjhānam (Meaning: I bow to the Arihants, to the Siddhas, to the Acharyas, to the Upadhyayas, and to all monks.)

• Short Shanti idea (easy to remember)

Ahimsā shanti samāj, sarva bhūta shanti prāpti (Meaning: May nonviolence prevail; may peace come to all living beings.)

• A simple universal peace wish

Shantiṁ āsvāsya divya bhāva pūrvaka, Sarva jīveṣṭa shanti (May all beings be peaceful in heart and life.)

Notes on the meaning of shanti in Jainism

• Core idea: Shanti (peace) in Jainism is inner calm, nonviolence in thought, word, and deed, and harmony for all beings. It is closely tied to ahimsa (nonviolence) and vivek (right understanding).
• The aim is not just external quiet but a steady, compassionate mindset that reduces harm and increases welfare for all living beings.

Differences between Digambar and Shvetambar about shanti and related practices

• Who can be spiritual perfected beings:

- Digambar (sky-clad): Traditionally emphasize strict asceticism and sometimes hold that moksha (liberation) is achieved by those who have renounced worldly life completely; differences about the specific eligibility for certain spiritual attainments are more pronounced in some texts. In practice, Digambar emphasis tends to focus on the higher, austere path and direct experience of truth through severe restraint. - Shvetambar (white-clad): Emphasize a broader set of practices that include monastic and lay paths, with more rituals and temple-centered activities. They generally maintain that both men and women can pursue and attain moksha through the right path, inspite of social roles.

• Women and shanti/path to liberation:

- Digambar: Traditional interpretations sometimes hold that women must be reborn as men to achieve the kevala jnana (omniscience) required for moksha, though many Digambar communities also emphasize the strong spiritual capacity of women and practice devotedly. Some Digambar groups emphasize ascetic discipline as the path to peace, with more emphasis on austerities. - Shvetambar: Generally teach that women can attain moksha through the right spiritual path, and many venerable female saints and ācāryinīs are recognized in their lineages. The shanti practices often include a strong role for temple-based rituals and community recitation.

• Practices and expressions of shanti:

- Digambar: Shanti is often embedded in austere practice, silent contemplation, and rigorous adherence to nonviolence and ascetic conduct. The emphasis is on inner purification and the direct experience of truth through self-control. - Shvetambar: Shanti is expressed through a mix of inner cultivation and outward acts like puja (worship), communal prayers (stotras), and organized meditation and study, alongside ascetic discipline for monks and nuns.

If you’d like, I can tailor these verses to a specific tradition (Digambar or Shvetambar) and provide more precise, traditional stotras or prayers from Jain scriptures.
