    Biyasana eating time

    an hour ago 2

    Answer

    In Jain practice, Biyasana means eating only two times in a day.

    Both meals should be taken during the day, generally:

    • After sunrise
    • Before sunset

    No food is taken after the second meal.

    Explanation

    There is no single fixed clock time for Biyasana for everyone, because sunrise and sunset times change by place and season.

    Commonly, people take:

    • First meal: morning or before noon
    • Second meal: afternoon or early evening, before sunset

    Water rules may vary depending on the type of vow, family tradition, and guidance from Guru Maharaj Saheb.

    Spiritual Understanding

    Biyasana helps reduce attachment to taste and food. It supports self-control, discipline, and awareness in daily life.

    Takeaway

    Biyasana = two meals only, both before sunset, with no eating after the second meal.
