Answer

Varshitap mein Diwali ka Chhath ek din baad aaye, to is vishay mein apne Guru Bhagwant / Sadhu-Sadhviji / sangh ke vidhi-gyata se margdarshan lena uchit hai, kyunki Varshitap ki tithi-vidhi parampara aur panchang ke anusaar ki jaati hai.

Samanya roop se Jain Dharma mein tapasya shraddha, maryada aur samyak bhav se karni chahiye. Agar tithi mein asamanya sthiti ho, to apni ichchha se nirnay lene ke bajay guru-maryada ke anusaar chalna shreshth hai.

Attam karna labhkari hota hai?

Haan, Attham tapasya labhkari mani jaati hai, agar:

• sharirik kshamata ho,
• man mein shraddha aur shuddh bhav ho,
• ahankar, dikhava ya zidd na ho,
• guru ki anumati / margdarshan ho.

Attham ka labh keval upvas se nahi, balki kashay kam karne, dharma-dhyan, swadhyay, pratikraman, samayik aur vinay-bhav se badhta hai.

Spiritual Understanding

Jain Dharma mein tapasya ka mukhya uddeshya hai:

• karma nirjara,
• indriya-nigrah,
• raag-dwesh mein kami,
• atma-bhav ki vruddhi.

Isliye Varshitap ya Attham dono mein bhav ki shuddhi sabse mahatvapurn hai.

Takeaway

Diwali Chhath ek din baad ho to apne guru/sangh ki vidhi ke anusaar nirnay lein. Attham labhkari hai, lekin shakti, shraddha aur guru-margdarshan ke saath karna hi uchit hai.
