Expectation of future prosperity (nid na) We explain below the atic ras of Sallekhan vrata: o o Jvt sms : Pujyap da explains it is reluctance to leave this body. Dhara thinks that the desire to listen to one's own praise from those who surround the dying person constitutes this atic ra. Maran sms : Pujyap da explains it as desire for quick death. Mitranur ga: This includes remembering one's friends, games of childhood, merry festivities etc. the vet mbaras do not recognize this atic ra. Sukhanubandha: This means recollection of past comforts and pleasures.
