Pooja ke liye sabse pramukh shloka (navkar mantra) hai. Ye puja ki shuruaat mein bahut aam roop se recite kiya jata hai.

Navkar Mantra (Namokar Mantra)

• णमो अरिहंताणं
• णमो सिद्धाणं
• णमो आयरियाणं
• णमो उवज्झायाणं
• णमो लोए सव्वसाहूणं

Arth (artham):

• Namo Arihantanam: main unpurva arihanton ko pranam karti/karata hoon, jo antarmukhi krod, garbha, maya ko vijayit karke keval jnana ko prapt karte hain.
• Namo Siddhanam: main siddho ko pranam karti/karata hoon, jo moksha prapt karke bandhan se mukt hain.
• Namo Ayariyanam: main acharyao ko pranam karti/karata hoon, jo sadhujan ko gyaan aur marga dikhate hain.
• Namo Uvajjhayanam: main upadhyayo ko pranam karti/karata hoon, jo shastra-gyan devataon ki shiksha dete hain.
• Namo Loe Savva-Sahūṇam: main duniya bhar ke sadhu-sadhvi ko pranam karti/karata hoon.

Ye paanch parmatmashtiyon ki namaskar ki aawaz dhyaan se sunti hai: yahi mantra man aur karm ko shuddha kar ke moksha ki or le jata hai. Digambar aur Śvetāmbara dono hi is mantra ko sweekar karte hain; uchcharan (pronunciation) mein thoda bhinnata ho sakti hai, lekin arth aur lakshya ek hi hai.
