I m only avoiding jamikannd nothin else then
Answer
If you are only avoiding जमीकंद / kandmool and nothing else, then in Jain Dharma it is a good beginning, but it is not considered the complete Jain way of food discipline.
Explanation
In Jain practice, avoiding जमीकंद is important because root vegetables are believed to involve greater harm to living beings. Common examples include:
- Potato
- Onion
- Garlic
- Carrot
- Radish
- Beetroot
But Jain food discipline also generally includes avoiding:
- Meat, fish, eggs
- Alcohol and intoxicants
- Honey
- Eating after sunset, in stricter practice
- Food involving unnecessary violence or carelessness
So, avoiding only जमीकंद is a positive step, but Jain Dharma encourages gradually reducing all forms of himsa in food and lifestyle.
Spiritual Understanding
Jain Dharma is not only about one food rule. Its main foundation is Ahimsa — non-violence in thought, speech, and action. Food discipline helps us become more careful, compassionate, and self-controlled.
Takeaway
Avoiding जमीकंद is a good start. If possible, slowly move toward a more complete Jain vegetarian and ahimsak lifestyle with awareness, not pressure.
