Dear Friend, On this auspicious occasion of “SAMVATSARI- The last day of PARYUSHAN FESTIVAL" aka SORRY Day for JAINS,
I extend my "Tassa Michchami Dukkdam - If I have done any harm to you then those bad deeds to be forgiven (to be fruitless)” to you.
"KHAMEMI SAVVE JIVE,SAVVE JIVA KHAMANTU ME METTI ME SAVVE BHUYESU,VERAM MAJAHAM N KENAI" – meaning
I forgive (from the bottom of my heart without any reservation) all living beings (who may have caused me any pain and suffering either in this life or previous lives), and I beg (again from the bottom of my heart without any reservation) for the forgiveness from all living beings (no matter how small or big to whom I may have caused pain and suffering in this life or previous lives, knowingly or unknowingly, mentally, verbally or physically, or if I have asked or encouraged someone else to carry out such activities). (Let all creatures know that) I have a friendship with everybody and I have no revenge (animosity or enmity) toward anybody.
FYI, traditionally we call "Tassa Michchami Dukkdam" – as I beg "SORRY" from you (in English) and in Hindi, it would be "KSHAMA YACHNA" with folded hands.
