Typically performed daily, Samayika involves silent contemplation, prayer, and reaffirmation of vows, helping individuals develop a calm mind, reduce passions, and progress on the path of spiritual purification and liberation. It is a means to attain mental clarity and moral balance, emphasizing the importance of mindfulness and self-discipline in spiritual growth.
