Shuddh bhojanalay (Jain shuddh bhojan-shala) mein khana khate samay kuchh mool Niyam dhyan rakhne chahiye. Main inhe bahut simple points mein likh raha hoon:

1. Samay aur Din ka Dhyan

- Ratri-bhojan (suryaast ke baad) se bachna chahiye (jitna sambhav ho). - Din mein jaldi khana khana, der raat tak khana khane ki aadat se bachna.

1. Shuddhata (Pavitrata) ka Dhyan

- Bhojan se pehle haath, muh, pair achchhi tarah dhona. - Saf, saaf kapde pehankar khana. - Jahan baithkar khate hain, vah jagah bhi saaf ho.

1. Jeev-hinsa se bachne ke Niyam

- Hamesha Jain drishti se shuddh bhojan hi lena: - Koi ande, machhli, maans, madhupaan (alcohol) adi kabhi nahi. - Jadon wali sabziyon (jaise aaloo, pyaaz, lasun, adrak, muli etc.) se bachna – jaisa aapke Ghar/Guru parampara ka niyam ho. - Khane ko zyada na uchhalna, na giraana – kyunki isse bhi jeev-hinsa badhti hai.

1. Asan-bhojan / Baithne ka tarika

- Shaant hokar, ek jagah baithkar khana, chalte-phirte, khade hokar ya gaadi mein khana jitna ho sake na karein. - Pair phaila kar thali ki taraf na karein. - Khana khate samay shareer ko adhik hilaana-dulana nahi.

1. Man ki Shuddhata

- Bhojan se pehle “Bhojan-vidhi” ya chhota sa Paath / Namokar Mantra, ya kam se kam shukrane ka bhaav rakhna. - Krodh, chinta, jhagda, mobile, TV, loud baatein chhodkar shaant ho kar khana. - Dusron ke khane ka, thali ka ninda-vandana na karna.

1. Bhojan ki Matra (Parimaan)

- Jitni sharir ko jarurat ho utna hi khana, sirf swaad ke liye zyada na bhar lena. - Pet ko bilkul 100% bharne ke bajay thoda halka chhodna – isse swasthya bhi achchha rehta hai aur sadhana mein bhi sahayak hai.

1. Khane ka Dhyan (Ekdriyata)

- Dhyan idhar-udhar na bhaagta rahe: - Bevajah mobile dekhte-dekhte khana nahi. - Bahut jor ka hasna, chillana, debate karte hue khana nahi. - Har niwala aaraam se, achchhi tarah chaba-chaba kar khana – isse bhi jeev-hinsa kam hoti hai aur swasthya bhi theek rehta hai.

1. Bhojan ka Samman

- Jitna lena ho utna hi serve lein, thali mein bacha hua khana na chhodein. - Jo mila hai uske liye krtagyata (gratitude) ka bhaav rakhna, ninda-badnami na karna.

1. Anya vyavaharik Niyam

- Khana khate time thukna, naak saaf karna, jor se khansi karna, ya aisi kritya jo doosron ko asuvidha de, unse bachna. - Thali ya table par thokar marna, chamach zor se patakna, ucchi aawaz mein seva-waalon se baat karna, daantna – sabhi se bachna.

1. Ant mein

- Bhojan ke baad, haath-muh dhona. - Thali, plate, table ko jitna ho sake saaf-suthra chhodna – doosre jeevon ke liye, aur seva-karne waalon ke prati samman ke roop mein. - Antar se prarthana karna ki: “Is shuddh bhojan se sharir dharma-sadhana mein lage, paap-kriya mein nahi.”

Ye saare Niyam ka mool uddeshya hai:

• jeev-hinsa ko kam karna,
• sharir ko swasth rakhkar dharma-sadhana ko badhana,
• aur bhojan ko bhi ek chhoti saadhana banana.
