“Dohla” (also written as “Dohada” / दोहड़) ka arth:

• Jain parampara mein: garbhavati stri ki achanak, vishesh icchha. Isse shubh sanket mana jata hai, khas kar Tirthankar‑mataon ke Garbh‑Kalyanak ke samay.
• Bhashik/śabdik: Sanskrit “dohada” aur Prakrit “dohaḍa” se – garbhavastha ki vishesh cheshta/ichchha.

Parampara ke anusar:

• Shwetambar aur Digambar dono mein dohada ka ullekh milta hai; Tirthankar‑mataon ke garbh‑kalyanak me shubh swapnon ke saath dohada ka varnan aata hai.
• Swapnon ki sankhya ka antar (Shwetambar 14, Digambar 16) rehta hai, par dohada ka tattva dono mein sweekrit hai.

Dharmik saar:

• Dohada ko pavitra sanket samjha jata hai; ise pura karna shubh mana gaya hai, bina kisi himsa ke aur shuddhata ke saath.
