Dash Lakshan Parva is a holy Jain festival that lasts ten days and centers on the ten virtuous qualities (lakṣaṇas) that purify the soul. It is celebrated by Digambar Jains mostly after Paryushan, and its aim is spiritual renewal through reflection, practice of virtues, and confession/forgiveness.

Key points:

• Ten virtues: forgiveness (kṣamā), gentleness (mārdava), straightforwardness (ārjava), purity (śauca), truth (satya), self-control (saṁyama), austerity (tapas), renunciation/detachment (tyāga), non-possessiveness (ākincanya), and celibacy (brahmacarya).
• Each day is devoted to one virtue. Monks give discourses and laypeople study and practice the teachings.
• Central ritual: kṣamāpanā (asking for forgiveness) and pratikramaṇa, culminating in Micchāmi Dukkaḍaṃ (May no harm come from my actions, thoughts, or words).
• Purpose: atmashuddhi (purification of the soul), reduction of passions, and progress toward liberation. It emphasizes self-examination, restraint, and living by Jain ethics.

Notes on tradition:

• In Digambara practice, this period is especially emphasized and followed after Paryushan; in Śvetāmbara tradition, a similar period is observed as Paryushana/Das Lakshan with some ritual differences.
• The festival is considered a time to reflect on Mahavira’s teachings and to strengthen personal vows, fasting, and charitable acts.
