Jain dharma ke anusar Holi ki aag me lakdi ya anya cheezẽ dalna vanaspati-kaya (paudhe) aur agni-kaya (aag ke jeev) ki hinsa hai. Hinsa se paap-karma bandhta hai. Parantu shastron me aisa koi nishchit “kitni baar jalkar marna padega” jaisa hisaab nahin bataya gaya. Jain karma-siddhant me phal nirdharit hota hai aise kaaranon se:

• bhav (uddishya/niyat),
• kashay ki tivrata (krodh, maan, maya, lobh),
• kriya ki prabandh-ta aur parinaam.

Isliye “ek lakdi = itni baar jalna” jaisi baat shastriya nahin, lok-vartao ki kalpana hai. Hinsa ka phal dukh aur durgati ho sakta hai, par ginti nishchit nahin hoti.

Kya karen (saral upay):

• Holika-dahan me bhag na lẽ. Ahimsa, sayyam aur jivdaya ko prathmikta dẽ.
• Yadi paristithi me jana hi pade to: hinsa na badhayẽ, lakdi/indhan na dalẽ, aur baad me pratikraman–pratyakhyan karẽ.
• Tyohar ko ahimsa se manayẽ: samayik, paath, Navkar jap, swadhyay, dan-jivdaya.

Adhik jaankari (karma aur acharan par saral lekh):

• Understanding the theory of Karma
• Charitra (vraton se hinsa-virati)
• What is karma (Jain drishti se)

Mukhya sandesh: Ahimsa paramo dharmah. Hinsa se bachna hi sahi upay hai; nirdharit baar jalkar marne ki koi shastriya ganana Jain dharma me nahin di gayi.
