SMALL CHETYAVANDAN VIDHI IF WE ARE RUSHING OR HAVE LESS TIME
If you are rushing, a short and respectful Chetyavandan vidhi can be done like this:
Small Chetyavandan Vidhi
- Pratikraman posture / standing respectfully
- Namo Arihantanam
- Namo Siddhanam
- Namo Ayariyanam
- Namo Uvajjhayanam
- Namo Loe Savva-sahunam
- Ichchhami khamāsamano vandium
- Offer humility and forgiveness inwardly
- Micchhāmi dukkadam
- Seek forgiveness from all living beings
- Bhaktipūrvak darshan / bowing mentally or physically before the Jina
- End with a short prayer for right faith, right knowledge, and right conduct
Very short form
If time is very less, at minimum do:- Navkar Mantra
- Khamasamana / Micchhāmi dukkadam
- Mental devotion to the Tirthankar
Important
- Do it with sincerity, not as a mechanical formality.
- Even a short vidhi done with bhav is valuable.
- Different Jain traditions may have slightly different short forms, so follow your guru, temple, or sangh tradition when possible.
If needed, I can also give you a 2-minute mobile-version Chetyavandan vidhi in very simple words.
