2) For deep (lamp)
- Sanskrit phrase: Deepaarpita svaha
3) For chamar (fly-whisk)
- Sanskrit phrase: Chamara-arpita svaha
4) A concise, standard temple invocation often recited together with these offerings
- Sanskrit line: Namo Arihantnaṁ, Namo Siddhānaṁ, Namo Āchārya नामो अरिहंतनं, नामो सिद्धानं, नमो आचार्याणं
5) Short, inclusive benediction often recited with all three offerings

Important guidance
- The edifying purpose is to honor the Tirthankaras, remove distractions, and cultivate humility. Each community (Digambar and Shwetambar) may have slightly different words or sequence, but the underlying intent is the same.
- If you want, I can tailor the exact phrases to the specific temple tradition you follow (Digambar or Shwetambar) and provide more precise lines used in that tradition.
