    I’m aware of how to do siddhi tap by fast count and besnu but provide Siddhi tap Vidhi

    Answer

    The exact Siddhi Tap vidhi can vary by tradition, locality, and guru-parampara, but the common Jain vidhi is usually done with shuddhi, sankalp, niyam, upvas/besnu discipline, and devotional completion.

    Here is a simple, traditional outline:

    Explanation

    1) Before starting

    • Take sankalp with a pure mind.
    • Seek blessings from Sadhus/Sadhvis, elders, or your guru.
    • Keep the body and mind calm, humble, and focused.
    • Begin with Navkar Mantra and prayer for inner purification.

    2) During the tap

    • Follow the fixed fast count exactly as planned.
    • Keep besnu with proper discipline.
    • Avoid anger, gossip, pride, and carelessness.
    • Maintain:
    - Ahimsa - Satya - Aparigraha - Brahmacharya - Inner restraint
    • Do swadhyay, jap, pratikraman, and meditation daily.
    • Keep the tap as a means of atma-shuddhi, not only physical austerity.

    3) Food and water discipline

    • Follow the specific fasting pattern of your Siddhi Tap.
    • If your tradition has a fixed parna vidhi, do it exactly as instructed.
    • Use clean, permitted, and disciplined food arrangements only.

    4) Mental bhavana

    • Keep the feeling:
    - “I am reducing karmic bondage.” - “I am practicing detachment.” - “May my ego, anger, deceit, greed, and attachment weaken.”
    • The real strength of Siddhi Tap is bhavna + niyam + consistency.

    5) Completion / Udyapan

    • On completion, do parna according to tradition.
    • Offer gratitude to Tirthankars, gurus, and family support.
    • If your tradition includes puja, charity, or seva, do that with devotion.
    • Conclude with kshama yachana and a pure heart.

    Spiritual Understanding

    In Jain Dharma, tap is not only fasting. It is a way to:
    • burn karma
    • weaken attachment to the body
    • increase samyak bhavna
    • strengthen vairagya
    • move toward atma-kalyan

    So the most important part of Siddhi Tap vidhi is not only the outer method, but also the inner purity, discipline, and humility.

    Takeaway

    If you already know the fast count and besnu, then the heart of Siddhi Tap vidhi is:
    • sankalp
    • strict discipline
    • daily spiritual practice
    • inner detachment
    • proper parna and completion

    If you are following a specific community tradition, the exact vidhi should be taken from that parampara or guru, because Siddhi Tap practices can differ slightly.
