I did 2 upvas and 6 ekashna what it called
1
Answer
In Jain practice, doing 2 Upvas and 6 Ekashna together is generally called a form of Tapasya.
There is no single special fixed name for exactly 2 Upvas + 6 Ekashna that is universally used in Jain tradition.
Explanation
- Upvas means fasting for the day, generally without food.
- Ekashna means eating only once in the day, within proper Jain rules.
- When these are done together over several days, it is called Tap or Tapasya.
Some people may describe it simply as:
- 2 Upvas ane 6 Ekashna ni Tapasya
- 8 divas ni Tapasya, if it was done over 8 days
Takeaway
You can correctly say: “I did 2 Upvas and 6 Ekashna ni Tapasya.”
