    What to say after completing the prayer on The Mala

    an hour ago 2

    Answer

    After completing prayer on the mala, Jains commonly say a respectful closing such as:

    “Michchhāmi Dukkaḍaṃ.”

    This means:

    “May any faults or mistakes committed by me be forgiven.”

    Explanation

    At the end of mala or mantra-jap, it is spiritually appropriate to:

    • Bow with humility.
    • Ask forgiveness for any mistake in pronunciation, counting, attention, or devotion.
    • Offer the benefit of the prayer toward purity of the soul.

    You may also silently say:

    “Namo Arihantāṇam, Namo Siddhāṇam, Namo Āyariyāṇam, Namo Uvajjhāyāṇam, Namo Loe Savva Sāhūṇam.”

    or simply end with:

    “Jai Jinendra.”

    Spiritual Understanding

    In Jain Dharma, prayer is not for worldly reward, but for inner purification, humility, right faith, and reduction of karmas. Ending with forgiveness and reverence keeps the mind gentle and spiritually focused.

    Takeaway

    A simple and proper way to end is:

    “Michchhāmi Dukkaḍaṃ. Jai Jinendra.”
