Jain dharma mein mantran ka upyog man ko shant karne aur sahi drishti se sochne mein madad karta hai. Niyamit abhyas se nakaratmak soch kam hoti hai. Sabse prachlit aur sadharan mantra jo aap naye ya anubhavik dhyaan ke sath bol sakte hain, woh hai Navkar Mantra (Panchavaran vandan) ka sankshipt roop.

Navkar Mantra (panch vardhan vandan) ki mool roop:

• नमो आरिहंताणं नमो सिद्धाणां नमो आयारियाणं नमो उवज्जायाणं नमो लोए सव्व साहूणां

Iska arth (arth) — main Arihanta, Siddha, Ayariyana (Acharya), Uvajjhaya (Upadhyaya), aur sabhi sainiko/saahuṇon ko vandan karta/ka karti hoon. Inka uddeshya man ki unche astralataon ko yaad dilaana aur man ko niyantrit karna hota hai.

Digambar/Shwetambar ke beech vichaar:

• Dono paramparaon mein Navkar Mantra ki mool avriti lagbhag ek jaise hi hoti hai. Kuch shabdon ki chhoti-fadhi ya samayik vyakhya alag ho sakti hai, lekin tattva ki bhavna — Arihanta, Siddha, Ayariyana, Uvajjhaya aur Sahuṇon ko vandan — samaan hi rehta hai.

Is mantra ke sath kuch sidhi upay:

• Sthir baithen, halki saans lein aur dhyan ke sath mantra ko 3–5 minute tak dhwaraen.
• Saans ko dheere dheere chhodein, man mein nakaratmak vichaar aate hi unhe note ya likh kar chhodiye; phir mantra par wapas aaiye.
• Rozana 5–10 minute practise karein; jald hi man ke chain aur kendritata me sudhar mehsoos hoga.
• Zarurat pade to Pratikraman ya Samayik jaise Jain dharmik abhyason ko sath rakhein, jisse man ki bhool-bhool aur gussa kam ho.
