2. Adeshwar Bhagwan's Panch Kalyanak Puja
Jai Jinendra Brief Explanations about Various Pujas we perform at JSGD Temple. 1. Snatra Puja: This is a common Puja widely performed by most of the Deravasi Jain worshipers. It is also a starting Puja before any other main Puja. Snatra Puja has been composed by Pandit Shri Veer Vijayji Maharaj in a very poetic style. It illustrates the celebration of two of the auspicious (out of five) events (Kalyanaks) occurring in the last life of Tirthankar Bhagwan’s Soul. This Puja and celebration is for all Tirthankars and not specific to any particular one. Two Kalyanaks narrated in this Puja are Chyavan (conception) and Janma (birth) of Tirthankar’s Soul. At the end of this life the soul of Tirthankar reaches its climax and achieves liberation from life and death cycle (attains Moksha). This Puja recital explains the effect of Bhagwan’s birth on the whole universe, narrates how glorious the occasion was and how much joys were shared by all the living souls including all heavenly/hellish souls. Puja in end includes Ashta Prakari Puja (using eight dravyas) and a prayer recital of Shanti (peace) for all living beings and rejoices the event by performing Aarti, Mangal Divo, Shanti Kalash and Chaitya Vandan. 2. Adeshwar Bhagwan’s Panch Kalyanak Puja: This puja is also known as Shri Adinath Panch Kalyanak Puja – i.e. Rushabhdev Bhagwan. It is composed by Shri Dharma Dhurandhar Vijayji Maharaj. Puja narrates all five auspicious events of Adeshwar Bhagwan’s life-last life (Chyavan- Conception, Janma-Birth, Diksha-Monkhood, Kevalgyan-achieving Pure and Perfect Knowledge Omniscience and Nirvan-Moksha-Complete Liberation from birth and death cycle). -

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. -

Sculptural Representation of Yoga on Mahuḍī Gate at Dabhoī in Gujarāt
‘Yoga on Stone’: Sculptural Representation of Yoga on Mahuḍī Gate at Dabhoī in Gujarāt Vijay Sarde 1 1. Department of Ancient Indian History, Culture and Archaeology, Deccan College Post Graduate and Research Institute, Deemed to be University, Pune – 411 006, Maharashtra, India (Email: [email protected]) Received: 04 July 2017; Revised: 02 September 2017; Accepted: 11 October 2017 Heritage: Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies in Archaeology 5 (2017):656‐675 Abstract: The United Nations General Assembly approved and declared June 21st as the ‘International Yoga Day’. In present times yoga is accepted commonly by almost all the nations of the world. Yoga tradition has evolved over thousands of years having its origins in India. There are many textual references for yoga in the past such as yogasūtra of Patañjali, Haṭhayogapradīpikā, Gherānḍ Saṃhitā, śiva Saṃhitā etc. These texts throw detailed light on the yoga practices. However, there is less work done from archaeological perspectives. Dabhoī is situated 34 kilometer southeast of Vaḍodarā. It has been a medieval fort town of Gujarāt. The four magnificent gates of the fort are located in four directions. One of them is called Mahuḍī gate. It is of the Vāghelā period and has elaborate sculptural embellishments of rare yoga practices done by the Nātha‐Siddhas. It seems that, the earlier scholars did not pay much attention to these sculptures. These sculptural representations need to be examined vis‐à‐vis the rules and methods of traditional yoga. These depictions of yogic postures also throw light on the beliefs and religious life and their importance in contemporary society. The present research paper is an attempt to document and analyze yogic postures depicted on the Mahuḍī gate. -
The Cult of Nākoḍā Bhairava - Deity Worship and Possession in Jainism
The Cult of Nākoḍā Bhairava - Deity Worship and Possession in Jainism - Knut Aukland Master‟s Degree Thesis in History of Religion (60sp) Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages The Faculty of Humanities Univerisity of Oslo Autumn 2010 i Abstract Based on ethnographic work in India this thesis deals with various aspects of worship and possession related to the cult of Nākoḍā Bhairava, an extremely popular and famous protective deity among Jains in India. In its present form the cult seems to have been created and propagated by Jain mendicants about 75 years ago. The idol of Nākoḍā Bhairava is situated in a Jain pilgrimage site in western Rajasthan to which both Jains and non-Jains come to worship. Although Nākoḍā Bhairava is the centre of much attention and the main reason for the site‟s popularity, the temple itself is not dedicated to him since he is “only” the protective deity of the site. This becomes the starting point for an analysis of the relationship between religious doctrine and actual practice, the ideal and the real. One of the the most fascinating aspect of the cult of Nākoḍā Bhairava is the oracular possessions that Jains participate in. In these sessions Nākoḍā Bhairava is believed to enter into individuals before verbally interacting through them with spectators. Jain possession has hardly ever been studied before. Contrary, perhaps, to the general view of Jainism as a religion focused on asceticism and self-control with no apparent space for such religious expressions as possession, I argue that possession is not something new or foreign to Jainism. -

Demographic Trends in Jaina Monasticism
12 DEMOGRAPHIC TRENDS IN JAINA MONASTICISM Peter Flügel The study of Jainism as a living religion is still hampered by a lack of reliable sociological and demographic information both on the Jain laity and Jain mendicants.1 Most empirical studies to date have been thematically oriented or were of an exploratory nature. They were based on the methods advanced by the classical anthropological village studies or on small surveys of a non- representative nature.2 In both cases, the units of investigation were defined in terms of observer categories3 which were often created ad hoc in the field due to the advantages of snowball sampling under conditions of limited resources. In a paper read at the American Oriental Society Meeting in 1978, at a time when comprehensive field studies had yet to be conducted, the late Kendall Folkert (1993: 156) suggested avoiding the inevitable abstractions of ‘general accounts of the Jains’ by concentrating on ‘the smaller divisions within the tradition’ which ‘have actually been the basic units of the tradition’. What Folkert had in mind was to study the individual ‘schools, sects or orders’ (gaccha) of the Jain mendicant tradition,4 rather than ‘Jain religious culture’ in general.5 Certainly, not all Jains coalesce around monastic groups, but the majority does so in one way or another. The investigation of categories which are recognised by the Jains themselves promises indeed to yield testable results of greater accuracy and relevance for the Jain community itself. However, the research programme envisaged -
