Answer

While offering Akshat in the morning during Jain puja, you may recite:

“Akṣata pūjā karuṁ prabhu, akṣaya pada nī āśā;
janma-maraṇa nāśa thāya, male mokṣa prakāśā.”

Or simply chant with devotion:

“Namo Arihantāṇam”

while offering the rice grains.

Explanation

In Jain puja, Akshat means unbroken rice grains. They symbolize:

• Akshaya pada — the imperishable state of liberation
• Purity of intention
• Stability in spiritual practice
• The wish to move beyond the cycle of birth and death

When offering Akshat, the main feeling should be:

“May my soul attain the imperishable state of moksha.”

Spiritual Understanding

Akshat is not offered to ask for worldly gains. In Jain Dharma, it is offered as a reminder that the soul’s true goal is moksha, the eternal and unchanging state of liberation.

Takeaway

If you know the traditional Akshat puja verse from your family or sampradāya, recite that. If not, chanting “Namo Arihantāṇam” with pure devotion is appropriate.
