Namokar Mahamantra & 108 Sacred Virtues
Composed by Traditional Shruta Agamic Canon • Shauraseni Prakrit
The supreme, non-sectarian mantra of Digambara Jainism eulogizing the Pancha Parameshthis (Arihants 12, Siddhas 8, Acharyas 36, Upadhyayas 25, and Sadhus 27 virtues = 108 aggregate Mulagunas).
अरिहंतों को नमस्कार हो। सिद्धों को नमस्कार हो। आचार्यों को नमस्कार हो। उपाध्यायों को नमस्कार हो। लोक के सर्व साधुओं को नमस्कार हो। यह पाँचों नमस्कार सब पापों का नाश करने वाला है और सब मंगलों में प्रथम मंगल है।
Salutation to the Arhats (the Omniscient Victors)! Salutation to the Siddhas (the Liberated Souls)! Salutation to the Acharyas (the Spiritual Heads)! Salutation to the Upadhyayas (the Preceptor Teachers)! Salutation to all the Sadhus (the Digambara Ascetics) in the universe! This fivefold salutation destroys all sin and is the foremost of all auspicious invocations.
