Jain dharm me Ekadashi vrat ko aam taur par Maun Ekadashi ya Maun Ekadashi vrat kehte hain. Is din shravak/shravika log shanti (maun) banaye rakhte hue upavas ya laghu vrat karte hain aur Tirthankar ki bhakti aur dharma sadhna par kendrit hote hain.

Vidhi (mool dharmik pratha, sandarbh sangh ke hisaab se thoda bhinn ho sakta hai)

• Uthna (subah se pehle) ya subah ke pehle se chaliye; din bhar maun banaye rakhein (kewal zaroori bolna hi pade to hisaab rakhen).
• Ahara niyamit roop se sadharan hota hai: aam taur par ek ya bahut kam bhojan ki anumati hoti hai, ya kisi sangh ki maryada ke anusar laghu upvas (paryantah) ki ja sakti hai; kuch log bina kisi bhojan ke din bhar upvas karte hain. Shikhar sutra ke anusar bhojan ki naitik seema sangh ke maryada par nirbhar karti hai.
• Vyavahar mein ahimsa, satya, brahmacharya jaise satvik sankalp ki pratjarha hoti hai; paryavaran, pareshaaniyon ya jeevon ko nuksan na pahunchaane ki prarthana hoti hai.
• Kayotsarga (sharir ko aram dena, dhyan ki avastha) aur dhyan, pavitra stavan, Jain dharma ki paath, puja-aradhana, aur satsang adhik tezi se ki ja sakti hai.
• Paraspar sahayata, dan-punya, aur bhakti ke kriya (stavan, prarthana) vyavahar me rakhte hain.

Kis tarah ki bhinnataen ho sakti hain

• Digambar aur Shwetambar paramparaon ke beech kuch vidhi-paridaya alag ho sakte hain. Kuch sangh adhikariyon ke liye maun ke saath kamm bhojan ya poorn upvas ki sakti hoti hai, jabki anya vidhi me keval shabd nirodh aur dhyan par zyada zor diya jata hai. Iska mool maksad karmo ko shant karna, tapasya badhana aur moksha ki or agrasar hona hai.
• Vyaktigat ashirvad ya sthanik masnad (temple/pravachan) ke anusar bhi vrat ki visesh maryadaayein vary kar sakti hain.

Aap kis digambar ya shwetambar sangh ki vidhi jaanna chahte hain ya aapke aas-paas ke mandir ki maryada kya hai, yeh batayenge to main usi hisaab se sahi, spasht vidhi aur artha (arth) ki vyakhya kar dunga. Agar aap chahen, main is vrat ki dharmik arth aur pramukh mantra-puja ki saamanya raam se joote arth bhi de sakta hoon.
