Answer

Jain Dharma mein 1 upvas se “kitna” karma tut-ta hai, iska koi fixed number ya exact measure nahi bataya ja sakta.

Karma-nirjara upvas se hoti hai, lekin woh is par depend karti hai:

• Upvas kis bhav se kiya gaya
• Man, vachan, kaya ki shuddhi kitni rahi
• Krodh, maan, maya, lobh se kitna bache
• Samayik, pratikraman, swadhyay, dhyan kiya ya nahi
• Upvas ke dauran ahankar ya dikhava tha ya nahi

Explanation

Jain Dharma ke anusaar tap se karma ki nirjara hoti hai, yani bandhe hue karmo ka kshay/ghatna hota hai. Upvas bahya tap ka ek mahatvapurn roop hai.

Lekin agar upvas sirf sharir se kiya, aur mann mein:

• gussa,
• irsha,
• ahankar,
• dikhava,
• ya ashubh vichar

chal rahe ho, to uska spiritual labh kam ho jata hai.

Aur agar upvas ke saath:

• vinay,
• shanti,
• samayik,
• pratikraman,
• jap,
• swadhyay,
• atma-chintan

ho, to karma-nirjara adhik shuddh bhav se hoti hai.

Spiritual Understanding

Jain Dharma mein upvas ka main purpose bhookha rehna nahi, balki atma ko sharir aur indriyon ki aasakti se alag samajhna hai.

Sahi upvas ka arth hai:

• Kam khana nahi, balki kashay kam karna
• Sharir ko control karna
• Mann ko shant banana
• Atma ki taraf dhyan le jana

Takeaway

1 upvas se karma zarur nirjara hoti hai, lekin uska “kitna” phal bhav ki shuddhi par nirbhar karta hai.

Sabse uttam upvas wahi hai jisme bhookh se zyada kashay par vijay ho.
