Happy Samvatsari

Today is Samvatsari i.e. the last day of Paryushana —the eight day festival of Jainism.

Today a Jain person celebrates Kshamavani or "Forgiveness Day". It is a day of forgiving and seeking forgiveness for the followers of Jainism."Micchami Dukkadam" is the common phrase when asking for forgiveness. It means that May all the evil that has been done be fruitless.

"Khamemi Savve Jiva, Savve Jiva Ve Khamantu Me,

Mitti me Savva Bhooesu, Veram Majjham Na Kenavi,

Ev Ma Ye Aaloyam, Nidiyam Giriyam, Dugamcchiyam,

Savv Jive He Nam Padikanto, vandami Jeev Chowisam"

Lord Mahavira said we should forgive our own soul first. Anger begets more anger and forgiveness and love beget more forgiveness and love. Forgiveness benefits both the forgiver and the forgiven.

To make peace in life and world, it is necessary to forgive people and have harmony with them. It will give positive effect on your “Krunanu-Bandh”.
