Bhagwan Mahaveer ke niyam sabhi kaal ke liye same hain. Panchamkaal (aaj ka samay) dushkaar, dukh aur adharma-vriddhi ka samay hai, isliye aur bhi zyaada sambhal‑kar jeena chahiye.

Neeche main saral roop me bata raha hoon – 1) sabke liye mool niyam, 2) grahasthon (shravak–shravika) ke खास niyam, 3) Panchamkaal me khas dhyan dene wali baatein.

---

1. Sabke liye mool 5 niyam (Panch Mahavrat ka saar)

Yehi Mahaveer Swami ka mool dharm hai. Muni/Sadhvi ke liye ye Mahavrat, aur grahasthon ke liye Anuvrat (thoda halka roop) ke naam se aate hain.

1. Ahimsa – kisi bhi jeev ko jaan‑bujhkar, krodh, lobh, matsar se

sharir, vachan ya man se takleef na dena.

1. Satya – hamesha hitkari satya bolna, jhooth, chugli, kadi baat se bachna.
2. Achaurya (Asteya) – jo diya na ho, chhota ya bada, lena hi nahin;

cheating, bhrashtachar bhi isme aata hai.

1. Brahmacharya – indriyon par niyantran;

muni ke liye poorn brahmacharya, grahasth ke liye pavitra, ek‑patnivrata / ek‑patnivrata jeevan.

1. Aparigraha – zyada samaan, paisa, aasakti na badhana;

jitna zaroori ho utna hi rakhna, baaki me daya aur daan.

Digambar–Shvetambar dono in 5 mool vrat ko maante hain; antar sirf muni‑achar, vastra aadi me hai, niyam ka arth same hi hai.

2. Panchamkaal me Grahasthon ke liye – 12 Vrat (Shravak‑achar ka saar)

3. Panchamkaal me khas dhyan rakhne wali baatein

Panchamkaal me:

• jeevan chhota, dukh zyada,
• krodh, lobh, kapat, hinsa badh rahi hai,
• Bharat kshetra me na Tirthankar aate hain, na yahan se moksh hota.

Isliye Mahaveer Swami ke niyam ko aur majbooti se pakadna zaruri hai:

1. Roz thoda dharm‑kaam pakka kijie

- Namokar Mantra, - chhota samayik, - thoda swadhyay (Jinwani padhna/sunana), - raat ko pratikraman‑bhaav: “aaj maine kya galti ki?”

1. Khane‑peene me satarkata

- shakahar, jal‑chayan, - raatri‑bhojan se jitna ho sake bachna, - vyarth waste aur atyadhik bhog se door rehna.

1. Vyapar/Job me suddhata

- hinsa‑adharit business se bachna, - jhooth, bhrashtachar, milavat, nasha‑vyapar na karna.

1. Parivar‑jeevan me niyam

- krur boli se bachna, - sanyam, sharam, maryada, - bachchon ko chhoti umar se hi ahimsa, satya, daan sikhana.

1. Daya aur Daan

- samay, shakti, dhan ka kuch hissa dharmik karya, gareeb, rogi, jeev‑daya me lagana.

4. Panchamkaal aur kal‑vichar (synthetic saar)

• Abhi hum Avasarpini ke Pancham Kaal (Dushamaa) me hain.
• Is kaal ki kul avadhi 21,000 varsh mani gayi hai.
• Mahaveer Swami ke nirvan ke thode samay baad se yeh kaal chalu hua,

Is samay me niyam dheele karne ka nahin, aur kasne ka samay hai, taaki jeev kam se kam bandhan kare aur aage ke janmon me moksh‑marg ke aur kareeb aa sake.

Panchamkaal ke baare me aur padhne ke liye yahan dekh sakte hain: – Panchamkaal ki avadhi par charcha – “Kalyug ka ant Jain drishti se kaise hoga?” – Abhi kaun‑sa kaal chal raha hai?

Ye sab Mahaveer Swami ke hi bataye huye Panch Mahavrat + 12 Shravak Vrat par adharit jeevan‑niyam hain, jinhe dhire‑dhire apni shakti ke anusaar apnana hi Panchamkaal me sahi Jain jeevan mana gaya hai.
