Introduction
This article explains purpose and meaning of the traditional Samvatsari Pratikraman ritual of Swetambar Murtipujak’s Tapa Gachchha Jain Community. 

This annual ritual takes about 3.0 hours or more to complete.  More than 98% of Jains perform this ritual mechanically and satisfy themselves that they have completed their annual obligation to their religion.

In this article, an effort has been to explain each major step of the ritual.

First, we have divided this long ritual into several sections and explain the purpose of each section. 

In the second step, we have listed the corresponding sutras, vidhi and the brief meaning of the sutra to reflect when such sutras are recited.

The actual Vidhi or ritual is listed in Hindi and the explanation and meaning is provided in English.

Six Daily Avashykas or Practices

It is our tradition that the followers of Bhagvan Mahavir need to practice the following Six Avashyaks or daily rituals. 

1	Sämäyika	Practice of Equanimity towards all living beings
2	Chauvisattho	Recite Devotional Prayer remembering  virtues of Tirthankars
3	Vandanä	Respecting Monks, Nuns, and elders
4	Pratikraman	Repentance and Confession of our past Sins (minor violations)
5	Käyotsarga	Meditation in Yoga Posture for certain duration to reflect upon our past sins
6	Pratyäkhyäna (or Pachchkhana)	Take Religious Vows to discipline ourselves for not to commit these Sins again

Later on Acharyas realized that it was difficult for the lay people to practice all six Avashyaks separately everyday. Hence they  incorporated all six Avashyaks into the 4^th Pratikraman Avashyak ritual.  Hence a person needs to perform only this expanded version of Pratikraman ritual to complete all six daily Avashyaka rituals.  This is the reason the 4^th Avashyak – Pratikraman became very important and the term “Pratikraman” is used as a common name for all six essential acts.

Pratikraman Ävashyaka

Even though now the daily Pratikraman Avashyak ritual included all six Avashyakas, not all lay-people can perform the Pratikraman ritual everyday.  Hence the Acharyas have created Pakkhi Pratikraman (to perform this ritual once every 15 days), Chaumasi Pratikraman (once every 4 months), and Samvatsari Pratikraman (once a year). 

The only difference among the three expanded Pratikramans are the length of Kaussag which are 12 Loggas for Pakkhi, 20 Loggas for Chaumasi, and 40 Loggas for Samvatsari that we do during the ritual.  It is a strong tradition that every Swetambar Jain MUST do the annual Samvatsari Pratikraman ritual.

Brief History of Pratikraman Ritual Recitation by Monks and Shravaks together:

The ancient tradition says that Pratikraman needs to be performed in the presence of Gurus but not with them.  This is because Atichar and Aloyana Sutras in Pratikraman are different for monks, nuns, shravaks (laymen) and shravikas (laywomen); therefore there are different pratikraman rituals for monks, nuns, shravaks and shravikas in the past.

About 400 to 500 years ago in Khambhat, Gujarat, Acharya Shri Vijaychandrasuri started a new tradition and did Pratikraman with shravakas (laypeople) in Vadi Poshal Upashraya.  Initially there was significant opposition by other Acharyas.  However later on, these Acharyas accepted  this new tradition and it is now a permanent tradition among Tapa Gachchha Shwetambar Murtipujak Jain community (largest community of the Jain religion).

Hence, again the Pratikraman ritual has been expanded to accommodate both Monks and Shravaks Aloyana and Atichar sutras and that increased Pratikraman time significantly.

There are other sub-sects of Swetambar Murtipujak Jains like Paya-Gachchha and Anchal Gachchha communities in India where laypeople do not do Pratikraman with monks and nuns.

In America, there are no fully ordained Jain monks and nuns live.  Also in many Jain centers, Jain Shravakas and Shravikas do Pratikraman together.  They continue to use and recite the same 

Samvatsari Pratikraman Vidhi of Monks and Shravaks together as done in India. 

However, in place of specific Monks’ Atichar  sutras, the ritual indicates to repeat  the Shravak’s Atichar. .  Hence these Sutras of Shravaks’ Atichar are repeated several times and thus the time it takes to recite the Samvatsari Pratikraman ritual of Shravaks and Shravikas remained same about 3.0 hours.

Major Steps of Samvatsari Pratikraman Vidhi

The complete Samvatsari Pratikraman, which is the expanded version of daily Pratikraman is divided into the following sections:

1. Taking vows of Samayik
2. Expanded Pratikraman Ävashyaka Ritual.  This section is divided into the following four groups. 

·         Daily (Devsiya) Pratikraman Ritual Part 1

This section includes; Chaitya Vandan (Tirthankar Prayer), Pachparesthi Namaskar, Pratikraman Sthäpanä Sutra, 1st Ävashyaka – Sämäyika, 2nd Ävashyaka – 24 Tirthankar Prayers, 3rd Ävashyaka – Vandanä, and the part of 4th Ävashyaka – Pratikraman sutras such as Satlakha, Adhar Papsthanak, and Vanditu sutras.

·         Samvatsari (Yearly) Pratikraman Ritual

This section is added in the 4^th Pratikraman Avashyak of daily Pratikraman ritual for Pakkhi, Chaumasi, and Samvatsari Pratikraman rituals. 

For Samvatsari Pratikraman, it includes; Samvatsari Aloyana, Samvatsari Atichär, Samvatsari Tapa, Michchhämi Dukkadam to Sakal Sangh, Samvatsari Sutra of Monks, Vandittu sutra of Shravak, Käusagga of 40 Loggas, Monk’s Samvatsari Khamant Khämasanä

This section includes left over sutras of 4th Pratikraman Avashyak, 5^th Käyotsarga Avashyak and 6^th Pratyäkhyäna (or Pachchkhana) Avashyak sutras.

Originally the Pratikraman ritual was completed at the end of 6th Pratyäkhyäna Avashyak ritual.  However, over the period of time, some Acharyas decided to add some sutras in the Vidhi to celebrate the successfully completion of this most important ritual and later on they became part of the ritual.

·         Spiritual Celebration for Successful Completion of Samvatsari Pratikraman

This section includes Stuti, Stavan (Ajitshanti), Prayashchita for any Atichar occurred during Pratikraman, Sajjaya (Samsardava), Brahad Shanti, Santikaram and Prayers of Tirthankar (Chaitya Vandan).

Spiritual Celebration after Completion of Pratikraman Avashya

2.1 Daily (Devasia) Pratikraman – Part1

Aloyana and Pachchhakhan (6^th Ävashyaka)

Even though the Pachchhakhan is the 6^th Avasyak, we need to take the vow of Pachchhakhan in the beginning because it should be taken before sunset.  However, we will recite 6^th Avasyak’s other sutras at its proper place.

Also, before we take Pachchhakhan, we need to do Aloyana if we have taken food or water during the day.

Doing Aloyana and Pachchhakhan Vidhi

• फिर (दिन में पानी पिया हो तो) खमासमण, इच्छाकारेण संदिसह भगवन्  मुहपत्ति पडिलेहुं? इच्छं कहकर,

Chaityavandan

Before we begin any pious ritual, it is a tradition to pray Tirthankars by doing Chaitya Vandan. Here we do long Chaitya Vandan (4 Thoys instead of one Thoy as done in the Temple).

1^st Thoy dedicated to Specific Tirthankara

2^nd Thoy dedicated to all 24^th Tirthankars

3^rd Thoy dedicated to Jnan (Gyan)

4^th Thoy dedicated to Dev and Devi for protection

• फिर लोगस्स, सव्व-लोए अरिहंत-चेइआणं सूत्र (शुरुआत में सव्व-लोए शब्द पूर्वक अरिहंत-चेइआणं सूत्र) (सूत्र नं.19) कहकर, एक नवकार का काउस्सग्ग कर, काउस्सग्ग पारकर, दूसरी स्तुति (स्नातस्या की) कहें.

Note –

We recite Namorhat sutra for 1st and 4th Thoy because in the beginning and at the end we bow to Panch Paremsthi also.

Panch Parmesthi Namaskar

After the Chaitya Vandan, we do Panch Parmesthi Namaskar.

संवच्छरी प्रतिक्रमण की विधि.

Samvatsari Aloyana

• फिर खमासमण, देवसिअ आलोइअ पडिक्कंता इच्छाकारेण संदिसह भगवन् संवच्छरी मुहपत्ति पडिलेहुं? इच्छं कहकर, मुहपत्ति का पडिलेहण करें.
• फिर दो बार वांदना देकर,

• एक संवच्छरस्स, बारस मासाणं, चउवीस-पक्खाणं, ती सय सट्ठीराइ-दिवसाणं; जं किंचि अपत्तिअं, पर-पत्तिअं; भत्ते, पाणे; विणए, वेयावच्चे; आलावे, संलावे; उच्चासणे, समासणे; अंतर-भासाए, उवरि-भासाए; जं किंचि मज्झ विणय-परिहीणं, सुहुमं वा, बायरं वा; तुब्भे जाणह, अहं न जाणामि; तस्स मिच्छा मि दुक्कडं. (सूत्र नं.36) कहकर--

संवच्छरीअं आलोउं? सूत्र (सूत्र नं.30)  कहें. - “इच्छा-कारेण संदिसह भगवन्! संवच्छरीअं आलोउं? इच्छं, आलोएमि जो में.... .

Samvatsari Atichär

• फिर इच्छाकारेण संदिसह भगवन् संवच्छरी अतिचार आलोउं? इच्छं कहकर, संवच्छरी अतिचार (न आता हो तो वंदित्तु सूत्र) कहें
• First Monks will recite the first four of Samvatsari Atichar Sutra which are: General, Jnanachar, Darshnachar, and Charitrachar Atichars.  These Atichar are common between Monks and Shravaks
• Then Monks will recite the Atichars applicable to the life of monks and at that time Shravak will say “Dhanya Muniraj” at the end of each Atichar
• Then Shravak will recite their remaining Atichars which are:

12 vows of Laypeople – each vow has 5 Atichär (12x5=60 Atichär), 01 Samyaktva (5 Atichär), 01 Sanlekhana (5 Atichär), 01 Karmadan (15 Atichär), 01 Tapachar (12 Atichär), and 01 Viryachar (3 Atichär)

• एवं सव्वस्स वि सूत्र कहें -
  सव्वस्स वि संवच्छरीअं दुच्चिंतिअ, दुब्भासिअ, दुच्चिट्ठिअ, इच्छा-कारेण संदिसह भगवन्! इच्छं, तस्स मिच्छा मि दुक्कडं. (Sutra 33)

Samvatsari Tapa

• फिर इच्छकारि भगवन् पसाय करी संवच्छरी-तप प्रसाद कराओजी कहकर,
• गुरु भगवंत या वडिल संवच्छरी तप कहें –

अट्ठमेणं - तीन उपवास, छः आयंबिल, नव नीवी, बारह एकासणां, चौबीस बीयासणां, छः हजार सज्झाय (6000 Gatha to recite)  या साठ नवकारवाली और यथाशक्ति तप करके पहुंचाना कहें.

•          तप किया हो तो पइट्ठिओ कहें,

•          करना हो तो तहत्ति कहें

•          एवं न कर सकें तो यथाशक्ति कहें या मौन रहें.

Note – The Samvatsari Tapa is 3 Upavas = 6 Ayambil = 9 Nivi = 12 Ekasana = 24 Biyasana = 6000 Gatha to recite = 60 x 108 Namaskar Sutra

Nivi = Similar to Ayambil but allowed to eat 6Vigais (milk, yogurt, Ghee, oil, Sweets, Brown-sugar) after being heated, which reduces Vikar.  In Ekasana, one can eat all 6 Vigais

Michchhämi Dukkadam to Sakal Sangh Vidhi

           In pakkhi pratikrman Kaussaga = 12 Loggas x 25 Sampada = 300 Sampada
