Please give me wording for a pachkhan of porisi fast but allowing water and medication in English
Here is a simple English pachkhan wording for Porisi fast with water and medicine allowed:
“I take Porisi Pachkhan. Until the completion of Porisi, I will not eat any solid food. I will take only plain water, and I will take medicine if needed. I will observe this vow with full faith and sincerity.”
If you want, a slightly more formal version is:
“I undertake Porisi fast. Until the end of Porisi, I shall abstain from all solid food. I may take water and necessary medicine. I accept this vow with pure intention and devotion.”
You may also shorten it to:
“I take Porisi Pachkhan today: no food until Porisi is completed, but water and medicine are allowed.”
If you need, I can also give:
- a more traditional Jain-style English version
- a very short daily-use version
- a version for Ayambil, Ekasana, or Upvas
