Digambar Alochana path lyrics in english
Here is the Digambar version of Alochana Path (Alochana Paath) in English transliteration. It is a traditional format used during Pratikraman to confess faults, seek purification, and renew vows.
Dohā (Opening couplet) Vando paṅchō param guru, chaubīsō jinārāj Karū̃ shuddh alocanā, shuddhi karan ke kāj
Sakhi chhand (Verse 2) Sunīe jin arja hamārī, ham dosa kiye ati bhārī Tinakī ab nivṛtti kāja, tum saran lahī jinārājā
Verse 3 Ik bē tē chau indeṛī vā, manrahita sahita je jīvā Tinakī nahin karuṇā dhārī, niradā'ī ho ghāt vicārī
Verse 4 Samārambha samārambha ārambha, man, vāc, tan kīnē prārambha Kṛta-kārīta modan karikē, kr̥hodādi cattuṣṭaya dharikē
Closing reference (optional summary of the spirit) Doshrahit jindentjī, nij pad dījyo mo-y Subhāvanāen sab jīvan ke sukha badhe, ānanda maṅgaḷ hōy
Notes for you:
- This text can have small wording differences between Digambar and Shwetambar communities. The essential meaning is the same: confession of faults, remorse, vow to avoid them, and seeking the guidance of the Tirthankaras and teachers.
- If you want, I can tailor the exact wording to the Digambar or Shwetambar version you follow.
