Answer

Yes, moongfali (peanuts) are generally considered eatable during Dash Lakshan, because they are not root vegetables.

Explanation

During Dash Lakshan Parva, Jains usually avoid:

• Root vegetables like potato, onion, garlic, carrot, radish, etc.
• Green leafy vegetables in many traditions
• Foods involving more harm to living beings
• Eating after sunset
• Careless or indulgent eating

Moongfali grows underground in pods, but it is not treated the same as root vegetables like potato or onion. Therefore, many Jain families allow peanuts during Dash Lakshan.

Important Note

Some families or sanghs follow stricter rules during Dash Lakshan and may avoid underground-grown items more broadly. So it is best to follow your family tradition, guru guidance, or local sangh maryada.

Takeaway

Moongfali is usually allowed during Dash Lakshan, but if your practice is strict, confirm with your guru or family tradition before eating it.
