Micchami Dukkadam
' is an ancient Prakrit phrase literally meaning — may all the evil that has been done be fruitless.〔Chapple. C.K. (2006) ''Jainism and Ecology: Nonviolence in the Web of Life'' Delhi:Motilal Banarasidas Publ. ISBN 978-81-208-2045-6 p.46〕 It is especially used on the Kshamavani Diwas or Forgiveness Day, celebrated on ''Samvatsari'', the concluding day of the eight or ten day ''Paryushana ''festival (or the first day of Dashlakshan), one of the main festivals of the Jain community. On this day, Jains request forgiveness from each other for all offences committed.〔 The phrase is also used when a person makes a mistake, or recollects making one in everyday life, or when asking for forgiveness in advance for inadvertent ones.
As a matter of ritual, Jains greet their friends and relatives with ''Michchhāmi Dukkaḍaṃ'', seeking their forgiveness. Forgiveness is requested by saying "Michchhami Dukkadam" to each other. It means "If I have caused you offence in any way, knowingly or unknowingly, in thought, word or deed, then I seek your forgiveness".〔 No private quarrel or dispute may be carried beyond Samvatsari, and traditionally, letters have been sent and telephone calls made to friends and relatives asking their forgiveness.〔Hastings, James (2003), Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics Part 10, Kessinger Publishing ISBN 978-0-7661-3682-3 p.876〕
