    Certainly. Below is a practical list of 50 small Pachchakhān / Pratyākhyān for a youth or adult above 16, keeping in mind a busy life. These are meant to support Ahimsa, Satya, Aparigraha, self-control, and spiritual discipline in daily life.

    Simple way to use these

    A youngster can choose:
    • 1 daily vow
    • 1 weekly vow
    • 1 life-style vow
    • 1 spiritual vow

    For example:

    • “I will do one Samayik every week.”
    • “I will not lie today.”
    • “I will not waste food.”
    • “I will turn off my vehicle at signals when safe.”

    Very short daily Pachchakhān format

    You may also take vows in a simple form like:
    • Aaj mein jhooth nahi bolunga.
    • Aaj mein gussa kam karunga.
    • Aaj mein Navkār Mantra ka jap karunga.
    • Aaj mein ek Samayik karne ka prayatna karunga.
    • Aaj mein kisi jeev ko jaan-bujhkar hani nahi pahunchāūnga.

    If you want, I can also make this into:

    • a pure Jain-style Gujarati/Hindi list, or
    • a daily 7-day vow chart for students and working youth.
