Mandir chatiyvandan vidhi (Chaitya Vandana) Jain dharm mein mandir mein tirthankar ko vandan karne ki vidhi hai. Neeche saral tareeke se vidhi batayi ja rahi hai, kuch sthano par Digambar aur Shwetambar mein thoda farq ho sakta hai. Yahan dono traditions ke mool tatva samjha rahe hain.

Mool tatva (samany vidhi)

• Shuddhata ki pratigya: mandir mein jaane se pehle sharir aur man ki shuddhi par dhyan, saaf kapde pehne.
• Aarambh ki bhavna: man mein ahimsa, satya, vrat ki pratigya aur bhav ke saath vandan shuru kiya jata hai.
• Naman aur vandan: mukhya tirthankar ya sabhi tirthankaron ko namaskar karna (Namokar/ Navkar mantra ya unki stuti ke shlok padna).
• Pradakshina (pradakshikā): murti ya chhavara ke chaaron or ghoomna (vyavasthit ruti mein 3-7 pradakshina hoti hain, lokanusar sthaniyvidhi alag ho sakti hai).
• Pushp-ya incense-ya lamp (vilapna): phool, dhoop/dhupak, diya ya deepak ki arpan.
• Jal arpan: murti ke charno ya asan ke samip jal arpan kiya jata hai, pavitrata ke liye.
• Dhyān/Pratyakhyan: tirthankar ki mahima mein dhyaan lagana, aatma ki shuddhi aur moksha ki chaah.

Chaitya vandan ke aam pad (vyavaharik chalan)

• Aamana: mangal-arth (shubh) bhavna ke saath darshan ki sthiti lete hain.
• Namaskar ki kriya: haath jod kar ya pranam sthiti mein unki arji ke saath astang-pratishtha (sar se pair tak bhav se namaskar) kiya jata hai.
• Navkar Mantra ya Namokar Mantra: tirthankar ke samaksh nabad (navkar) mantra ya unki stuti ke shlok padna.
• Murti ke charan sparsh/pratidnya: murti ke samip jaakar, pair milana ya dhyan ke saath sparsh-kriya; Digambar/Shwetambar ke anusar mudraath (knee down) ya pyaar se vandan ki jankari hoti hai.
• Pradakshina: murti ki chaap par ghoomna (vyavastha anusaar 3-7 mantra ya chakravat pradakshina).
• Aupaadhika samapan: vandan ke antim kshan par phool, dhoop, deepak arpan ke saath vidhi samapti.
• Prarthana ke antim shabd: sabhi tattvon ke prati kshama, ahimsa, dheeraj aur moksha ki kamna ke saath vandan samapt hota hai.

Digambar aur Shwetambar mein vishesha antar (sankshipt)

• Digambar: saadharan roop se sir par kapda ya sangat ki sthiti par dhyan, mul-deha (anu-saman) ke alag bhavank ke anusaar kriya, murti sparsh aur bhavon ki vyavaharik rekha thodi alag ho sakti hai. Kubool ki bhavna aur bhav par adhik jor hota hai.
• Shwetambar: murti ke samne ya pradakshina ke samay kuch vishesh mantr-paadya, sallekhana ki bhavna, aur pavitra jal arpan ki rit mein thodi alag vyavaharik rekhayein dikhai deti hain; dev-vandana mein navkar mantra ki padhai pramukh hoti hai.

Kuch upayogi sandarbh (saral tareeke se)

• Darshan se pehle shuddh kapde, pavitra jal se paani se haath-pair ki saaf-safai karna.
• Mantra ya stuti ke saath bhav ki saaf-safai rakhnā.
• Murti ko chahakar, dhiire-dhiire vandan kiya jaaye; jaldbaazi na karein.
• Vidhi mein sthaniya parampara ya mandir ki nishchit reeti ko follow karna uchit hota hai.

Agar aap chahen, to main in vidhi ko Digambar aur Shwetambar ki kisi specific temple tradition ke hisaab se aur spasht, step-by-step roop me likh kar de sakta hoon.
