In 2006, she did a public speaking course and gave her first lecture in Kamani Jain Bhavan on Jainism which was appreciated a lot by eminent speakers. Her journey had just started. She has also accompanied Jain Sadhvijis in giving spiritual lectures in Paryushan. Mrs. Kamdar's interest in Jainism grew so much that she started teaching and giving lectures on Jainism outside the city Kolkata. She decided to do Masters in Jainology but as she was not a graduate, she was unable to do it. But she was unstoppable. She took this as a challenge and she completed her graduation first after a gap of 14 years and then pursued Masters in Jainology from Ladnun University, Rajasthan. She went to Mumbai, Raipur, Jamshedpur, Dhanbad, Agra, Delhi and Pune to spread the knowledge of Jainism. She has also written a book named "Shrota Adhikar" in Hindi which was launched by Governor of West Bengal, Shri Keshrinath Tripathi in Raj Bhavan amongst few dignitaries of Kolkata. She is the first Gujarati lady to write a book on Jainism in Hindi in Eastern India. After the success of her book, she was also invited as a guest lecturer by USA's largest Jain Organisation named JAINA where she had two sessions, one for Children and one for youth. At present, Mrs. Kamdar is a guest lecturer to various Jain Sanghs and is also a teacher at Ahimsa Bhavan. She is also the teacher of faculty members of Kamani Jain Bhavan run Jain Pathshala.
She has been awarded by ANANYA Award by premier club of Kolkata- Hindustan Club in 2018. She has been honored by the title of ‘JAIN DARSHINI’ by Kamani Jain Bhavan, the local Sangh of Kolkata, a title first time ever given to a Shravika in West Bengal. She was honored by Creative Group for her contribution in field of imparting knowledge of Jainism amongst youths and elders. She has been awarded with ‘DEVI’ award by Sahitya times where 10 ladies of Eastern India were recognized for their achievements in various fields.
She presented her book to Hon’ble Governor of West Bengal, Shri Jagdeep Dhankar and he appreciated the title and contents of the book in view of present uses of social media.

MESSAGE FROM CHAIRMAN
Jai Jinendra,
Dear Sadharmik Brother and Sisters,
It is a great pleasure to report that our center is doing well, even in these difficult times. I hope that everyone is staying safe, healthy, and taking as many precautions as possible.
I would like to thank the Sangh, Board of Trustees, Executive Committee, Religious Coordinators, Kitchen Committee, the Office Team, and Volunteers for their unwavering support and dedication to the center. With all your support we continue to celebrate all the ceremonies and rituals at JCA.
This year, JCA will be celebrating Paryushan Maha Parva and Daslakshan Maha Parva from September 3rd to September 19th, 2021. We will be hosting all the scholars virtually via Zoom and we are deeply grateful for their time and effort to make this happen under such circumstances. Let’s celebrate these auspicious days with full “Tan, Man & Dhan” towards our spiritual journey.
Please stay safe and observe CDC Guidelines to protect yourself and others.
Michhami Dukkadam.
Mehul D. Shah Chairman Jain Center Of America, New York
MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT
Dear Sadharmik Brothers and Sisters,
Jai Jinendra & Pranam
I hope you all are safe and healthy. As I step in the second year of my presidency I would like to convey my heartfelt thanks to you, the soul and core of JCA - the members- for supporting me throughout the challenging year of the pandemic.
Moving forward with continued engagement, support and enthusiastic involvement of our EC, BOT, RC, kitchen committee members, volunteers and the entire sangh, we will still be holding all the rituals and celebrations following covid restrictions like last year.
Thankfully due to the relative ease in covid regulations over the past year, our anniversary celebration went much smoother. Moving forward, as you all are aware that Paryushan Maha Parva commences on September 3rd, 2021 and concludes on September 10th, 2021 followed by Das Lakshana which will last from September 10th, 2021 to September 19th, 2021.
However, as you all know due to travel restrictions we once again won't be able to host any of our scholar's lectures in person. Nevertheless, we assure you that, as a team, we will try our best to make this spiritual occasion filled with the same bhav and excitement as always. These circumstances are far from normal, but with your support Paryushan and Das Lakshana 2021 will be just as lively as last year.
We will be hosting our Paryushan/Das Lakshana pravachans remotely via Zoom for all 8/10 days. The scholars will be as follows:
Pujya Sadhvi Shri Shilapi ji Maharaj (Sthanak & Dadawadi) Smt. Mehuliben Kamdar (Mahavir Swami Temple) Dr. Mukeshbhai Ajmera (Shrimad Rajchandra) Pandit Mahesh Kumar ji Jain (Adinath Jinalaya)
On this auspicious occasion, I ask for Michhami Dukkadam from the entire sakal sangh, and promise to make a sincere effort to celebrate this Paryushan/Das Lakshana as spiritually and safely as possible.
Lastly, I would like to thank the Board of Trustees, Executive committee members, religious and kitchen committee members, volunteers, and employees for their continued and selfless support over the past 2 years, despite the unusual circumstances we are facing.
Wishing everyone to stay safe, stay healthy, and stay spiritual!
Ritesh Shah President, JCA Jain Center of America, New York
