Das Lakshan ya Dash Lakshan Parva Das Lakshan ke 10 guna ya dharm hain, jo Digambar Jain tradition me 10 din ki vrata ke roop me manaye jaate hain. Ye har din ek mukhya gun par dhyan aur abhiyas karta hai.

Das Lakshan (10 Mahatvaapoorna Gun) 1) Uttam Kshama – Param kshama (kshama) rakhna, sabhi jeevon ko maaf karna. 2) Uttam Mardav – Param namrata, garv ya ahankaar ko kam karna. 3) Uttam Arjava – Param dharm-sathya, satya aur imaandari ke saath chalna. 4) Uttam Shaucha – Param shuddhi, man aur sharir ki pavitrata. 5) Uttam Satya – Param satya, sacchai bolna. 6) Uttam Sanyam – Param niyantran, indriyon par control. 7) Uttam Tap – Param tapas, vivek aur sangharsh se chitta ki shuddhi. 8) Uttam Tyag – Param tyag, vastra-vastu se asakti ko kam karna. 9) Uttam Akinchanya – Param asakti-rahit rehna, anek dharmo me tyag aur daan-daya. 10) Uttam Brahmacharya – Param brahmacharya, brahmarup ya sambandhon par niyantran.

Vyakhya ki bhasha me, in gunaon ko “Uttam” isliye kaha jata hai ki yeh atma ki shuddhi ke liye uchchatar star par kiye jaane wale, vyavaharik aur nischayik donon roop ko darshate hain.

Chhoti si baat:

• Digambar Jain dharma me Das Lakshan par 10 din ki utsav ya vrat hota hai.
• Shwetambar Jain dharma me is ke sath sambandhit Paryushan (8 din) hota hai, jiska samapan Samvatsari par hota hai. (Yeh dono alag prachar hain, par mool artha atma shuddhi ki hi hoti hai.)
