Das Lakshan is the ten-day festival observed by Digambara Jains as their principal annual occasion for spiritual reflection and purification, typically falling in the month of Bhadrapada (around August or September). Each of the ten days is dedicated to contemplating one of the ten supreme virtues, or dharmas, such as forgiveness, humility, truthfulness, and self-restraint, which guide the soul toward liberation. The observance is marked by fasting, scriptural study, worship, and seeking and granting forgiveness expressed through the phrase "Uttam Kshama," may any wrongdoing be forgiven.
