Understanding Jain Pachchakkhaan
Pachchakkhaan (પચ્છખાન) refers to the Jain practice of observing specific fasting times and periods. The day and night are divided into Prahars (periods) to help practitioners maintain discipline in their spiritual practice.
Each day and night is divided into 4 equal Prahars (periods). These divisions help Jain practitioners observe proper times for eating, fasting, prayers, and spiritual activities.
These calculations are made precisely for your specific location using traditional principles of Jain astronomy, ensuring your fasting and spiritual practices align with the proper cosmic timing.
