(A Panahar Pacchakhan should be taken by those who have done some tapasya (austerity) like Ayambil, Upvas, Ekasna, Biyasna, etc.) For the rest of the day and the entire night, I shall forsake water (food has already been forsaken in the morning Pacchakhan), except for some contingency like anabhog, sahasatkar, mahattarakar and sarva samadhi pratyakar.
