15 Scriptures should be studied only at the appropriate time as prescribed in
i the Agams. Study of scriptures at a time inappropriate for studies' (anadhyaya * kaal) is prohibited.
Detailed description of anadhyaya kaal (time inappropriate for studies) is 55 also included in Smritis (the corpus of Sanatan Dharmashastra) like 4 Manusmriti. Vedic people also mention about the anadhyaya kaal (time
inappropriate for studies) of the Vedas. This rule is applicable to other Aryan holy books. As Jain Agams are sermons of the Omniscient, ensconced by the devas, and phonetically composed, discussion about the anadhyaya kaal (time
inappropriate for studies) is also included in the scriptures. For example: W According to Sthananga Sutra there are thirty two slots of time defined as
anadhyaya kaal (time inappropriate for studies)—ten related to sky, ten related to the gross physical body (audarik sharira), four relating to mahapratipada (the date following a specific full moon night), four relating to the date of the said full moon night, and four relating to sandhya (the four junctions of parts of the day, viz. morning, noon, evening, and midnight). They are briefly described
as follows: 4 RELATING TO SKY
1. Ulkapat or Tarapatan-If a falling star or a comet is visible in the sky, scriptures should not be studied for three hours following the incident.
2. Digdaha-As long as the sky looks crimson in any direction, as if there was a fire, then study of scriptures should not be done.
3. Garjit--For three hours following thunder of clouds such studies are 5 prohibited.
4. Vidyut-For three hours following lightening such studies are

However, the prohibition related to thunder and lightening is not applicable during the four months of monsoon. This is because frequent thunder and lightening is an essential attribute of that season. Thus this prohibition is relaxed starting from Ardra till Svati Nakshatra (lunar mansion or 27/28 divisions of the ecliptic on the path of the moon).
