(क) अनाभोग - प्रत्याख्यान की विस्मृति हो जाने पर कुछ खा लेना अनाभोग नामक आगार है। स्मरण होते ही तत्क्षण भोजन बन्द कर देना चाहिए और मुख में रहे हुए अन्न कणों को यतनापूर्वक थूक देना चाहिए। स्मरण होने पद भी भोजन बन्द नहीं किया जाए तो प्रत्याख्यान भंग हो जाता है।
(ख) सहसाकार - अचानक अन्न या जल का कण मुंह में आ गिरे, इससे भी प्रत्याख्यान भंग नहीं होता।
Exposition-This resolve is called Navakarsi because in it there is mention of Namokar. The practitioner makes a resolve that the period of his resolve shall not be considered as concluded till he recites namokar mantra. In it there is no indication about the period but it is traditionally accepted at all places that this resolve is for 48 minutes.
The literal meaning of 'ashan' and the like is as under:
1. Ashan-It means loaf, rice, flour preparations such as halwa, cake, bread
etc.
2. Paan-It means liquids such as milk, whey, juice, water and the like. In fast wherein three type of articles of consumption are avoided, paan stands for water only and therein only water can be taken.
3. Khaadim-It means dry fruit such as almonds, walnut and the like.
4. Svadim-It means those things which make the mouth fragrant such as sance, cardamom, ilaichi, clones and the like.
Aagar
It means that which is allowed in navakarsi. There are only two aagars.
A. Anabhog It means if any thing is consumed forgetting that one has made a resolve for this austerity. When one recollects his austerity, he should immediately stop consuming that article and spit out that one which is in his mouth. In case even after recollection of the particular fast, it is still consumed, the fast is considered to be broken.
B. Sahsakar-It means if suddenly a particle of food or a drop of water enters the mouth the fast is not considered as broken in that situation.
