## Sixth Study: Rejection
[131]
Eight Agars (exceptions) are mentioned in the Ayambil. Five of these Agars are the same as the previous rejections, while the three new Agars are as follows:
1. **Lepalepa:** If a vessel or hand is contaminated with ghee or other impurities, and the householder wipes it clean and offers food that is fit for Achaml, then there is no breach of the vow if it is accepted.
_The word 'Lepalepa' is formed from 'Lep' and 'Alep'. 'Lep' means to be contaminated with ghee, etc. 'Alep' means to wipe it clean and remove the contamination. Even after wiping, some residue of the impurity remains. Therefore, the Agar of Lepalepa is included in Achaml. 'Lepasch Alepasch Lepalepaṁ Tasmadanyatra, Bhajane Vikṛtyādyavayavasadbhave'pi Na-bhanga Ityarthaḥ.'_ - Pravachanasaroḍdhāravṛtti 2.
2. **Utkṣipta-Viveka:** If dry rice or bread, etc., has been previously contaminated with jaggery or sugar, etc., and a Muni observing the Achaml vow is offered that food, it can be accepted. 'Utkṣipta' means to lift, and 'Viveka' means to remove - not to leave it behind after lifting.
3. **Gṛhasthasamsṛṣṭa:** Taking Kulmāṣa, etc., that has been touched by ghee or oil, etc., is the Agar of Gṛhasthasamsṛṣṭa. In this Agar, it is important to note that if the amount of impurity is small, then there is no breach of the vow, but if the impurity is in large quantities, then accepting it becomes a cause for breach of the vow.
Some Acharyas believe that the four Agars of Lepalepa, Utkṣipta-Viveka, Gṛhasthasamsṛṣṭa, and Pariṣṭhāpanikāgāra are only for Sadhus, not for householders.
7. **Abhaktārtha-Upvāsa Sutra:**
Uggaye Sūre, Abhatṭhaṁ Paccakkhāmi, Cauvvihaṁ Pi Āhāra-Asanaṁ, Pāṇaṁ, Khāimaṁ, Sāimaṁ.
Annattha'ṇābhōgeṇaṁ, Sahasāgāreṇaṁ, Pāriṭṭhāvaṇiāgāreṇaṁ, Mahattarāgāreṇaṁ, Savvasamāhivattiāgāreṇaṁ Vōsirāmi.
Meaning: From sunrise, I observe the Abhaktārtha-Upvāsa, therefore I renounce all four types of food: Asana, Pāna, Khādima, and Svadima.
_I renounce all types of food except for the five Agars of Anābhōga, Sahasākāra, Pāriṣṭhāpanikākāra, Mahattarākāra, and Sarvasamādhipratyayākāra._
