    Meaning of pachkaan.asanampannam....

    7 months ago 140

    It looks like you are asking about a line from a Pachchakhān (Pratyākhyān) sutra used in Pratikraman or before taking a small vow (like food‑related pachchakhān).

    However, the fragment “pachkaan.asanampannam…” is incomplete and slightly distorted, so there are a few close possibilities (for example, phrases like “paccakkhāṇaṃ samāpaṇṇaṃ, sammā devā maṇasā karemi”, etc.), and the exact meaning depends on the full original line.

    In general, such lines mean roughly:

    > “I properly undertake this renunciation (or vow) with the right mind / with right intention.”

    They are used when:

    • a person renounces or limits something (food items, activities, etc.),
    • and wants to do it consciously, with right faith and intention, in the presence of Arihants, Siddhas, and the Guru tradition.

    To give you a correct, word‑by‑word meaning, I need the exact full sutra line in one script (Devanagari, Gujarati, or Roman) as you recite it. If you can write the full line, I can then:

    • give the original text,
    • explain the simple meaning,
    • and mention any small Digambar / Shwetambar differences if they exist.
