Sisatha Arihanta, Siddha vayanammi, surina kanthe, Hiyayammi uvajjhaya, caranathiya sahuno vande.
I venerate the Arihanta, who is located at the head: the Siddha who is located in the face; the Acharya who is located in the throat; the Upadhyaya who is located in the heart and the Sädhu who is located in the feet.
The Aum in the Namaskara:
Arihantä asarirä äyariya taha uvajjhäva munino, Pancakkhara nipfanno, omkäro panca paramitthi.
Aum is composed by combining the 'a' from Arihanta, the second 'a' from asarira (formless, Siddha), the third 'a' from Achärya, 'u' from the uvajjhäya and the 'm' from muni (monk, Sädhu). (a + a + a +u+m= AUM)
The Eight-Petal Lotus: Visualise an eight petal white lotus. Write the seven-syllable mantra, 'Namo Arihantänam' in the centre. Write "Namo Siddhänam on the eastern petal. Write Namo Ayariyanam' on the southern one and then write 'Namo Uvajjhäyänam' on the western petal. 'Namo loe savva sähunam' is to be written on the northern petal. On the south-eastern petal write 'Eso pancha namukkäro', on the south-western petal write 'Savva päva panäsano', on the north-western petal write 'Mangalänam cha savvesim', and on the north-eastern petal write 'Padhamam havai mangalam'. Then focus on this and meditate.
