Answer

In a Digambar Jain mandir, tying a rakhi is generally not part of the temple worship ritual.

A Jain mandir is primarily for:

• Darshan of Arihant Bhagwan
• Puja
• Abhishek
• Stavan and bhakti
• Meditation and spiritual reflection

So, it is better not to tie rakhi inside the main temple area or near the idol unless the local mandir committee or priest specifically permits it.

Explanation

Raksha Bandhan is a social and cultural festival, while Jain mandir maryada focuses on purity, devotion, non-attachment, and reverence toward the Jina.

If you want to observe Raksha Bandhan, you may:

• Do darshan and pray first
• Take blessings with a pure feeling
• Tie rakhi outside the temple area, in a hall, at home, or another appropriate place
• Follow the rules of that specific Digambar Jain mandir

Spiritual Understanding

In Jain Dharma, the highest protection is not from a thread, but from:

• Samyak Darshan
• Right knowledge
• Right conduct
• Ahimsa
• Self-control
• Detachment from passions

Takeaway

You may celebrate Raksha Bandhan respectfully, but inside a Digambar Jain mandir, follow mandir maryada. If unsure, ask the local mandir authority before tying rakhi there.
