Volume : 66 Issue No. : 66 Month : January, 2006 AHIMSA FOUNDATION WISHES A VERY HAPPY & PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR 2006 TO ALL THE ALL PATRONS & READERS TEMPLES PRESIDENT KALAM DECLARES OPEN FIRST MAHAMASTHAKABHISHEKA CEREMONY The hills of Vindhyagiri and Chandragiri in the town of Shravanabelagola resounded with chants of"Bhagawan Bahubali ki jai" as President A. P. J. Abdul Kalam on Sunday, 22nd January 2006 declared open the first Mahamastakabhisheka of the millennium and reiterated the relevance of the Jain tenets of non-violence in a strife-ridden world. Mr. Kalam said the practice of truth, ahimsa and vairagya that are the tenets of Jainism was relevant in modern times and the message of peace and non-violence as enunciated by Bahubali should be taken to all parts of the country. Addressing a vast gathering of Jain munis, nuns, acharyas and devotees who have assembled here from all parts of the world, the President said the spiritual congregation symbolised the continuity of a great tradition, which started in the 3rd century B.C. by Chandragupta Maurya, who settled here with 12,000 sages and munis performing austerities. It is a beautiful sight of people of multiple faiths and affiliations gathering to celebrate a great cultural event. The most sacred meaning of life consists of helping the establishment of peace and harmony on earth. This can only be achieved through the practice of truth, ahimsa and vairagya by all of us," the President said. The Mahamastakabhisheka is held once in 12 years and Sunday's inauguration marked the launching of the events and rituals that will lead up to the grand event of the anointment of the 57-foot statue that will be held Jainsamaj Matrimonial from February 8 to 19. -

Finally, my dream came true and after six years of my effort and with the help of some Jain community members in India, finally I have put together this document. It took me this long because I had to struggle to get lots of information and talked to many scholars, Sadhus in India to get information, particularly about Dev Devies, particularly 16 Vidya Devies, as this information is not available in original Jain scriptures. Dev Devies came about seventh century in the era of Sri Yasovijay Maharaj Saheb. He was the big sadhak of Sri Saraswati Devi. With the help of her sadhana, he convinced many Brahamins about Jain religion and philosophy. I would like to thank Dr. -

It began as a spiritual discipline for Samanas, Arhats, Tirthankaras, Nigganthas, and Jains. They were called Samanas (Monks) because they believed in equality of all beings and practiced nonviolence. They were called Arhats (worth of Worship) be cause they lived virtuous lives. As the originators of the spiritual path, they were known as Tirthankaras (Fordmakers). Being free from passions, they were called Nigganthas (detached). And because they have conquered all of their desires they were identified as Jinas (Victors). Hence, the religion propounded by such conquerors it fittingly called the Jaina religion or Jainism. Jaina tradition ascribes the origin of the system to Rsabhadeva, who lived many centuries back. -

Volume : 120 Issue No. : 120 Month : July, 2010
Volume : 120 Issue No. : 120 Month : July, 2010 JAIN CHATURMAS PARVA The meaning of Chaturmas is “Four Months”. Chaturmas begins on Chaturdashi of Ashadha month (Shukla paksha) and ends on Chaturdashi of Kartik month (Shukla paksha). During chaturmas period, Jain Muni and their followers pursue the principles of non-violence strictly and thus they stay at a single place. Religious activities and rituals are strictly observed by all. Chaturmas is followed by all jain sects, however the timings differ slightly. They use their time to preach, conduct discourses on dharma and anushtan pravachan (preach principles) to the devotees. During these four months, they are invited to listen to these discourses every morning," says Girish Jedia of the Vashi Jain Mandir. "It is the time for Vrats (fast) and revival of religious beliefs," Jain associations in various cities and towns organise Chaturmasi programmes and discourses at different venue. Apart from fasting and carrying other rituals, it is expected that all Jains abstain from eating after sun set and perform samayik or pratikraman in the morning and evening. Workshops, prayer meetings, fasts, discussions and donations are a common feature during Chaturmas period. These four months of monsoon is the ideal time for Jain monks to settle down at a suitable place as they believe this will save numerous insects and other small living beings from getting perished from accidental deaths. These four months are holy not only for the Jains but also for the Hindus but they commence and conclude chaturmas from Ekadashi.
