The Eighteen Sinful Activities

In our life we come across the following eighteen sinful activities:


  1. Killing
  2. Lying
  3. Stealing
  4. Non-chastity - Chastity is the state of not having sex with anyone, or of only having sex with your husband or wife. [old-fashioned] He took a vow of chastity and celibacy.
  5. Possessiveness of material things
  6. Anger
  7. Ego
  8. Deceit
  9. Greed
  10. Craving
  11. Aversion (aka..
    a strong dislike or disinclination)
  12. Disputation
  13. False accusation
  14. Back-biting 
  15. Denigration (the action of unfairly criticizing someone or something)
  16. Happy in sinful acts and unhappy in religious acts
  17. Deceitful speech
  18. False belief (to trust wrong God, wrong Guru or wrong religion)
 If I have committed any of above eighteen sinful acts, personally, asked someone else to do for me, or encouraged others to do so, then in the presence of infinite Siddhäs and Kevalis, I ask for forgiveness. May all my such sins be dissolved. TASSA MICHCHHÄ MI DUKKADAM
