“Bhagwan ke liye gochari lata tha” – yeh bhav bahut pavitra hai, lekin isko thoda dharmik drishti se samajhna zaroori hai.

1. Gochari ka asli arth

- Gochari = sadhu–sadhvi ke liye bhiksha (aahar) dena. - Jinendra Bhagwan to ab siddha sthit mein hain, shareer se rahit hain, unko na bhookh lagti hai na khaana chahiye. - Isliye “Bhagwan ke liye gochari lana” vyavahaar se nahi, bhav se bola jata hai – ki “ye sab Bhagwan ko samarpit bhakti-bhav se kar raha hoon.”

1. Sahi samajh kya honi chahiye?

- Vastav mein aap jeevit sadhu–sadhviyon ke liye gochari late hain. - Man mein bhav rakhte hain: - “Ye mera punya nahi, sab Bhagwan ka hai.” - “Main sirf nimitt hoon, asli adhi kari to Jinendra–Dharma–Sangh hain.” - Aise bhav se ahankar kam hota hai, vinay badhta hai.

1. Aisa bolna theek hai kya?

- Bhasha roop se log aksar kehte hain: - “Main Bhagwan ke liye aaj gochari lekar aaya.” - Agar andar ki samajh sahi ho ki: - Bhagwan ko khaane ki zaroorat nahi, - main to sadhu ko aahar dekar Bhagwan ki agya ko paalan kar raha hoon, - to aisa kehna chalta hai, usmein dosh nahi. - Par agar “main direct Bhagwan ko khilata hoon” jaise bhram ya ahankar aa jaye to phir bhav bigad jata hai.

1. Is seva ka mahattva

- Gochari dena bahut bada punya ka kaaran mana gaya hai. - Kai purva–janmo mein gochari–dana se logon ne uchcha gati, dev gati, aur Tirthankar naam karma tak bandh kiya hai. ( jainknowledge.com)

1. Dhyan rakhne layak baatein

- Ahimsa: saaf–sutra, jiv-hani kam se kam ho. - Asakti na ho: “maine itna diya” – aisi ganana, garv na ho. - Shraddha ho: sadhu–sadhvi ko Bhagwan ke agya-dhari maan kar seva karein.

Saral shabdon mein: Aap jo kah rahe hain, wo bhav roop se theek ho sakta hai, bas andar ye pakki samajh rakhein ki: “Main Jinendra Bhagwan ki agya se, unke sangh (sadhu–sadhvi) ki seva mein, vinay aur shraddha se gochari la raha hoon; asli adhi kari Bhagwan hi hain, main sirf nimitt hoon.”
