    Phonetic translation of Alochna path

    11 months ago 52

    Here is a simple phonetic transliteration (Latin script) of the widely recited Alochana Path, focusing on the familiar opening doha and the start of the sakhi-chhand. Note that small wording differences exist between Digambar and Shwetambar recensions, but the core meaning—confession, purification, and renewal of conduct—remains the same.

    Dohā (opening couplet)

    • Vando pañco param guru, chaubīs jinrājā.
    • Karu śuddha alochanā, śuddhī-karan ke kāj.

    Sakhi chhand (beginning, as commonly recited)

    • Sunīye jin arja hamārī, ham dōṣ kiye ati bhārī.
    • Tinnī ki ab nirvṛtti kāja, tum saran lahi jinrājā.

    Important notes

    • The exact words after the opening doha can vary slightly between Digambar and Shwetambar communities; the essential idea is to confess faults, seek purification, and renew resolve to avoid wrong conduct.
    • If you want the full line-by-line transliteration of a specific tradition (Digambar or Shwetambar) or a complete verse-by-verse transliteration, I can provide that from authentic Jain texts.
