Chauvihār time = from your local sunset today until the next sunrise. After sunset, do not eat or drink (both traditions uphold this; many families try to finish a little before sunset, and during Paryushan some keep a 48‑minute margin before sunset as a stricter maryādā). Today is August 24, 2025—so begin Chauvihār at the sunset time for your city.

If you share your city, I’ll give you the exact clock time for today’s sunset. Meanwhile, you can also check the sunset shown in your phone’s weather app or your local Jain panchāng and observe Chauvihār from that moment.
