Digambar Jain Muni / saints have given up all possessions , belongings,attachments, relations and even clothes, footwear, comforts, bed etc. . All seasons they live without clothes, mattresses, coverings etc.. They walk bear foot on all kind of roads, and all on kind of seasons. They eat only once and that too standing and without using any utensils. While world is mad after having more and more the Jain Monks do not have any bank accounts, any possessions etc. And to give Ahar ( serve food) to such Tyagi is a life time opportunity , a great privilege. Jain followers and even others take it is a great privilege to give Ahar to Jain Sadhus/ Muni.
