No, nightfall (nocturnal emission) does not break Brahmacharya. It is an involuntary act where the body naturally expels excess semen. Brahmacharya relates to conscious control over one's sexual thoughts and actions, rather than involuntary biological processes. Practicing self-discipline during waking hours is key.
