Padushan Parv (Dashalakshana Parva) is the Digambara Jain observance of 10 days, held around the time of Paryushana. Shvetambar Jains observe a shorter period (commonly eight days) called Paryushana, ending with Samvatsari. Here are the 10 days and their focus, as taught in Jain tradition:

• Day 1: Kshama — Forgiveness
• Day 2: Mardav (Mardavā) — Humility and gentleness
• Day 3: Arjava — Straightforwardness and honesty
• Day 4: Shaucha — Purity and cleanliness of mind and conduct
• Day 5: Satya — Truth
• Day 6: Samyam — Self-restraint of senses
• Day 7: Tapa — Austerities and penance
• Day 8: Tyaga — Detachment and renunciation
• Day 9: Akinchanya — Non-possessiveness
• Day 10: Brahmacharya — Celibacy (or Chastity)

What happens during these days

• Each day is centered on meditation, study, and discourses, often with a focus on one of the ten dharmas.
• The Kalpa Sutra (a key Jain scripture) is traditionally read or discussed during these days, with teachings offered to the gathered Vaisnaviks/Shravaks/Sadhus. In Digambara practice, these ten chapters are read over the ten days; in Shvetambar practice, the emphasis is often on Paryushana as eight days with related readings and prayers. The last day is Samvatsari, the day of forgiveness (Kshamavani), when followers seek forgiveness from others and pledge to improve. ( jainheritagecentres.com, jainqq.org)

Important note on tradition

• Digambar Jains observe the full 10 days as Das Lakshana Parva (the festival of ten virtues).
• Shvetambar Jains generally observe Paryushana for eight days and end with Samvatsari, the Forgiveness Day. This difference in duration is a recognized distinction between the two major Jain traditions. ( jainheritagecentres.com, jaina.org)
