The story discusses the fundamental principles of Jainism, focusing on its three elements: Deva Tattva (Divine), Guru Tattva (Teacher), and Dharma Tattva (Religion). It outlines five key precepts of Jainism: Gyanachaar (knowledge of religion), Darshanachaar (faith and conduct), Charitrachaar (following ethics), Tapachaar (physical and mental discipline), and Viryachaar (interest in religious matters). The text elaborates on Gyanachaar, introducing eight rules, starting with Kaal (time), which emphasizes the importance of setting specific times for studying sacred texts. It advises against reading scriptures during certain periods—48 minutes before and after sunrise, midday, and midnight—due to the potential disturbance to divine beings. The narrative stresses the significance of regularity in studying religious texts as a means to deepen one's understanding of Jainism.
