    Om Hreem Shreem Sijjamsam Jinam Namah

    6 months ago 94

    This is a beautiful Jain mantra of worship to the Arihants / Jinas.

    “Om Hreem Shreem Sijjamsam Jinam Namah”

    Let’s break it in a simple way:

    1. Om

    – Sacred sound used at the start of many mantras. – Invokes auspiciousness and purity of mind.

    1. Hreem

    – A sacred bīja (seed) syllable. – In Jain usage, it is connected with inner purity, spiritual energy, and turning the mind towards the soul (ātma).

    1. Shreem

    – Another bīja syllable. – Connected with mangal (auspiciousness), śubh bhāva (pure, wholesome feelings), and spiritual wealth (dharma, self‑restraint, right faith).

    1. Sijjamsam (from “Siddhaṃ samanam” / “Siddhaṃ samaṃ”)

    – Pointing towards the Siddhas (liberated souls) and the Samyak / Sama state (perfect, equal, passionless state). – It remembers those who have completely destroyed all karmas and are in a state of perfect purity.

    1. Jinam

    – Means Jina = conqueror of inner enemies (kashāyas: anger, pride, deceit, greed). – Refers especially to Arihant Bhagwān and Tirthankars.

    1. Namah

    – “I bow”, “I offer reverent salutation”.

    ---

    Simple overall meaning (arth)

    “Om, I invoke auspicious, pure spiritual energy. With the power of purity (Hreem) and auspiciousness (Shreem), I bow to the Jinas – the conquerors of inner passions – and to the perfected, liberated souls abiding in equality (Siddhas).”

    Or even simpler:

    > “With pure and auspicious feelings, I bow to the Jinas and the Siddhas.”

    This mantra helps to:

    • Remember the Arihants and Siddhas
    • Develop shuddha bhāva (pure feelings)
    • Reduce inner negativity and increase devotion (bhakti) and calmness.

    If you’d like, I can also give you a short way to chant it daily (how many times, with what bhāva).
