Answer

In Jain Dharma, a Navkarshi package usually means a food arrangement or meal package meant for people who are doing Navkarshi.

Navkarshi is the practice of taking food or drink only after a fixed time after sunrise, traditionally connected with spiritual discipline and restraint.

Explanation

The word Navkarshi is commonly used in Jain practice for eating after a certain period from sunrise. Many Jain families, derasars, or yatra organizers arrange a Navkarshi package, which may include suitable Jain food served at the proper Navkarshi time.

It generally means:

• Food prepared according to Jain rules
• Served after the Navkarshi time
• Often without root vegetables, depending on the arrangement
• Meant for people observing Jain discipline while travelling, doing yatra, or attending religious events

Spiritual Understanding

Navkarshi encourages:

• Control over hunger
• Discipline in eating
• Awareness of sunrise and daily religious routine
• A small form of tapasya and self-restraint

Takeaway

A Navkarshi package is not a scripture term by itself; it is a practical term used today for food arranged for those observing Navkarshi according to Jain discipline.
