Here is a very simple and pure daily Jain prayer you can do every day.

1. Main daily mantra – Navkār / Namokār Mantra

This is the most important Jain prayer, suitable for every day, morning and night.

In Prakrit:

णमो अरिहंताणं णमो सिद्धाणं णमो आयरियाणं णमो उवज्झायाणं णमो लोए सव्वसाहूणं

एसो पंच णमोक्कारो सव्वपावप्पणासणो मंगलाणं च सव्वेसिं पढमं हवइ मंगलं ॥

Simple meaning (arth):

• Namo Arihantāṇam – I bow to all Arihants (perfect beings who have destroyed inner passions and know everything).
• Namo Siddhāṇam – I bow to all Siddhas (liberated souls who have reached moksha).
• Namo Āyariyāṇam – I bow to all Āchāryas (head monks, spiritual leaders).
• Namo Uvajjhāyāṇam – I bow to all Upādhyāyas (spiritual teachers).
• Namo Loe Savva-sāhūṇam – I bow to all sadhus and sadhvīs (monks and nuns) in the universe.

• Eso pañcha Namokāro – These five bowings
• Savva-pāvappaṇāsano – destroy all sins.
• Mangalanam cha savvesim – Among all that is auspicious,
• Padhamam havai mangalam – this Navkār Mantra is the highest auspicious.

This meaning is accepted in both Śvetāmbara and Digambara traditions.

After Navkār Mantra, you can say:

खामेमि सव्व जीवे, सव्वे जीवा खमंतु मे। मित्ति मे सव्व भूएसु, वेऱं मज्झं न केणई ॥

Simple meaning:

• I forgive all living beings,
• May all living beings forgive me.
• I am friendly towards all beings,

3. How to use this as your daily prayer

Very simple routine:
