Logan navkar mantra
You may be asking for both: Navkar (Namokar) Mantra and the Logassa (Logassa/Logasā) Sutra. Here are both, with simple, traditional meanings.
1) Navkar (Namokar) Mantra Prakrit (traditional form)
- Namo Arihantanam
- Namo Siddhanam
- Namo Ayariyanam
- Namo Uvajjhayanam
- Namo Loe Savva-sahunam
- Eso panch namokkaro, savva-pavappanasano
- Mangalanam cha savvesim, padhamam havai mangalam
Arth (simple meaning)
- I bow to Arihants (perfect beings with kevaljnan).
- I bow to Siddhas (liberated souls).
- I bow to Acharyas (head monks).
- I bow to Upadhyays (scripture-teachers).
- I bow to all Sadhus-Sadhvis in the world.
- This five-fold obeisance destroys all karmic demerit and is the foremost auspicious mantra.

2) Logassa Sutra (Chaturvimsati-stava) – Śvetāmbara text Prakrit (seven gāthās, as preserved in Avashyaka/Pratikraman):
- Logassa ujjoa-gare, dhamma-tittha-yare jine
- Usabha-majiam cha vande, sambhava-mabhinandanam cha sumaim cha
- Suvihim cha puppha-dantam, siala-sijjamsa-vasu-pujjam cha
- Kunthum aram cha mallim, vande muni-suvvayam nami-jinam cha
- Evam mae abhithua, vihuyara-mala pahina-jara-marana
- Kittiya-vandiya-mahiya, je e logassa uttama siddha
- Chandesu nimmala-yara, aichchesu ahiyam payasa-yara
Arth (simple meaning)
- I praise the 24 Kevalis (Tirthankaras) who illumine the world and establish the dharma-tirtha.
- I bow sequentially to the 24 Tirthankaras: Rishabh through Mahavir.
- May these Jinas, free from karmic stains and beyond old age and death, be gracious to me.
- I revere the Siddhas, purer than the moon, brighter than the sun, deeper than the ocean; may they grant true samadhi and spiritual attainment.

Notes on traditions
- Śvetāmbara: Recites Logassa as above (part of daily Avashyaka/Pratikraman).
- Digambara: An equivalent Tirthankara-stuti is popularly recited (often beginning “Thossi mi…”); wording differs, but the devotion is the same—obeisance to the 24 Tirthankaras and Siddhas. The Navkar (Namokar) Mantra lines are common to both, with only minor pronunciation/spelling variations (e.g., Loe/Loya; Savva/Sabba).
Both prayers preserve the Jain essence: bowing to गुण (virtues) of the Panch Parameshthi and the 24 Jinas, seeking inner purity and liberation, without asking for material favors.
