Can we wat rajgira
Answer
Yes, rajgira (amaranth) is generally eaten in Jain tradition, especially during upvas/fasting days.
If you meant “Can we eat rajgira?” — then yes, it is commonly considered acceptable.
Explanation
Rajgira is not a root vegetable. It is a grain-like seed, so many Jains use it in fasting foods such as:
- Rajgira flour roti
- Rajgira sheera
- Rajgira ladoo
- Rajgira chikki
However, during strict fasts, rules depend on the type of tapasya and your family/guru tradition.
Takeaway
Rajgira is generally Jain-friendly, but for a specific fast or vow, follow the guidance of your guru, family tradition, or local Jain practice.
