Originally, Jain philosophy advocated for only two meals a day: the first occurring at least three-quarters of an hour after sunrise, and the second during the third or fourth quarter of the day, that is, post-noon (with evening meals being prohibited).

 However, as time progressed and human desires expanded, their digestive capacity diminished, leading to the establishment of a three-meal structure. 

This contemporary regimen includes the two traditional meals, with an additional third meal to be consumed at least an hour before sunset, thereby ensuring proper digestion and promoting good health.
