Citron juice refers to one of 21 kinds of liquids (which the Jain mendicant should consider before rejecting or accepting them), according to the “Sajjhāya ekavīsa pāṇī nī”, which deals with the Monastic Discipline section of Jain Canonical literature.—The technical terms used here are either borrowed from the Prakrit or rendered into the vernacular equivalents.—Note: Citron juice is also known as Bījorāṃ (Vernacular), as Māuliṃga in Prakrit and as Bijaura in Hindi.

General definition book cover
context information

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance’) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
