• Ayambil nu arth: Din bhar bahu halka ane saral bhojan khavanu, ane vaakate ekaj meal (mostly dopahar ya sandhya) pratishtha ma khavu. Kai-kai varsho ma 4, 7, 9 ya 8 divaso sudhi no ayambil kidhu jaay chhe.
• Kya karvu: Upwas ni avdharna pramane, chhota paat, sabji, dal, anna vagere ni sadharan ane punya bhari bhojan no paribhar hoy chhe. Shuddh shakahari bhojan, mool ni jad (forbidden) vagere vrat na niyam hoy shakhe. Salt ya madhurta bahu kam hoy ya totally band hoy to hoy shake.
