Answer

Devsi Pratikraman should be started in the evening, after sunset, generally during Pradosh Kaal.

A practical guideline is:

• Start after the sun has set.
• Do it before eating dinner, if possible.
• Complete it with a calm mind and proper bhaav.

Explanation

In Jain tradition, Devsi Pratikraman is performed to reflect on faults committed during the day and to ask forgiveness for them. Since it is related to the activities of the daytime, it is done in the evening after the day has ended.

The exact clock time depends on your local sunset time and your sangh or guru-parampara’s practice.

Takeaway

Start Devsi Pratikraman after sunset, ideally before dinner, with repentance, humility, and awareness.
