I wonder less now that I have had experience in having a book printed thousands of miles away. I am deeply indebted to Muni Sri J ayantavijayaji for his constant assistance and information on both doctrinal points and allusions to practical life and customs ; and also for his aid in obtaining books and manuscripts. The Jaina Dharma Prasaraka Sabha of Bhavnagar has per­ mitted me to keep its manuscripts for several years, a loan of the greatest assistance to me ; and the Atmananda Sabha of Bhavnagar has presented me with some valuable texts. In addition to the Bhavnagar and Poona MSS. whlch I used for Vol. I, I have consulted a MS. of Parvan II in the Oriental Institute of Baroda, and one for Parvan II and Parvan III from a Jain library in Radhanpur, which they were kind enough to send to this country. I have not, of course, made an exhaustive study of all existing manuscripts, as for a critical edition ; but it has been my intention to make a correct readable text with good manuscript authority. The bibliography, it would seem unnecessary to say, consists of the works I have found useful for my needs, and is not a bibliography of Jainism. REI.EN M. JOHNSON.

CLASS 7 JAIN HISTORY OUR GREAT LEADERS The Jain Shasan as prescribed by Bhagwan Mahavir has been brought to us by several great leaders. The first eight of these since the nirvana of Bhagwan Mahavir were as follows. 1. Shree Sudharmaswami: He was the fifth of the eleven Ganadhars of Bhagwan Mahavir. He was a learned Brahmin Pandit before he took Diksha. He was a student of the Vedas and he had a question in his mind about the way the Vedas explained reincarnation. He believed that each species would be reincarnated into its own species e.g. humans could only be reborn as humans. Bhagwan explained the theory of karma to him and explained how a jiva could be born as any species depending on its karma. Bhagwan addressed his doubts. He was impressed and asked Bhagwan Mahavir to give him Diksha.

And a fruitful trip to Maha Sarovar (West Kolkata) water to celebrate Mahashivatri here in our temple Sunnyvale. Shiva Abhishekham was performed every 3 hrs with milk, yogurt, sugar, juice and other Dravyas. The temple echoed with devotional chanting of Shiva Panchakshari Mantram, Om Namah Shivayah. During day long Pravachan Swamiji narrated 2 special stories. The first one was about Ganga, and why we pour water on top of Shiva Linga and the second one about Bhasmasura. King Sagar performed powerful Ashwamedha Yagna (Horse sacrifice) to prove his supremacy. Lord Indra, leader of the Demi Gods, fearful of the results of the yagna, stole the horse. He left the horse at the ashram of Kapila who was in deep meditation. King Sagar's 60,000 sons (born to Queen Sumati) and one son Asamanja (born to queen Keshini) were sent to search the horse. When they found the horse at Shri N. Swamiji performing Aarthi KapilaDeva's Ashram, they concluded he had stolen it and prepared to attack him. The noise disturbed the meditating Rishi/Sage VISAYA VINIVARTANTE NIRAHARASYA DEHINAH| KapilaDeva and he opened his eyes and cursed the sons of king sagara for their disrespect to such a great personality. Fire emanced RASAVARJAM RASO PY ASYA from their own bodies and they were burned to ashes instantly. Later PARAM DRSTVA NIVARTATE || king Sagar sent his Grandson Anshuman to retreive the horse.

    PANCHA PARAMESTHI Chapter 01 - Pancha Paramesthi Namo Arihantänam: I bow down to Arihanta, Namo Siddhänam: I bow down to Siddha, Namo Äyariyänam: I bow down to Ächärya, Namo Uvajjhäyänam: I bow down to Upädhyäy, Namo Loe Savva-Sähunam: I bow down to Sädhu and Sädhvi. Eso Pancha Namokkäro: These five fold reverence (bowings downs), Savva-Pävappanäsano: Destroy all the sins, Manglänancha Savvesim: Amongst all that is auspicious, Padhamam Havai Mangalam: This Navakär Mantra is the foremost. The Navakär Mantra is the most important mantra in Jainism and can be recited at any time. While reciting the Navakär Mantra, we bow down to Arihanta (souls who have reached the state of non-attachment towards worldly matters), Siddhas (liberated souls), Ächäryas (heads of Sädhus and Sädhvis), Upädhyäys (those who teach scriptures and Jain principles to the followers), and all (Sädhus and Sädhvis (monks and nuns, who have voluntarily given up social, economical and family relationships). Together, they are called Pancha Paramesthi (The five supreme spiritual people). In this Mantra we worship their virtues rather than worshipping any one particular entity; therefore, the Mantra is not named after Lord Mahävir, Lord Pärshva- Näth or Ädi-Näth, etc. When we recite Navakär Mantra, it also reminds us that, we need to be like them. This mantra is also called Namaskär or Namokär Mantra because in this Mantra we offer Namaskär (bowing down) to these five supreme group beings. Recitation of the Navakär Mantra creates positive vibrations around us, and repels negative ones. The Navakär Mantra contains the foremost message of Jainism. The message is very clear.

  • The Birth of Jainism Mahavira the Path-Maker
    JAINISM - RESPECT FOR ALL LIFE: By Myrtle Langley For a religion of only 3 million people, almost all of whom live in India, Jainism has wielded an influence out of all proportion to its size and its distribution. This influence has been felt most keenly in the modern world through Mahatma Gandhi. Although not himself a Jain, he grew up among Jains and embraced their most distinctive doctrine; non-violence to living beings (Ahimsa). But the influence of Jainism has also been felt in the Jain contribution to India’s banking and commercial life. As Buddhists are followers of the Buddha (the enlightened one), so Jains are the followers of the Jina (the conqueror), a title applied to Vardhamana, last of the great Jain teachers. It is applied also to those men and women who, having conquered their passions and emotions, have achieved liberation and attained perfection. And so the very name Jainism indicates the predominantly ethical character of this religion. THE BIRTH OF JAINISM The period from the seventh to the fifth centuries BC was a turning point in the intellectual and spiritual development of the whole world: it produced, among others, the early Greek philosophers, the great Hebrew prophets, Confucius in China and Zoroaster in Persia. For north India, the sixth century BC was a time of particular social, political and intellectual ferment. The older and more familiar tribal structure of society was disintegrating. In its place were appearing a few great regional kingdoms and a number of smaller tribal groupings known, as republics. These kept some of the characteristics of tribal structure but had little political power, being dependent on the largest of the kingdoms.

  • Ganga As Perceived by Some Ganga Lovers Mother Ganga's Rights Are Our Rights
    Ganga as Perceived by Some Ganga Lovers Mother Ganga’s Rights Are Our Rights Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswati Nearly 500 million people depend every day on the Ganga and Her tributaries for life itself. Like the most loving of mothers, She has served us, nourished us and enabled us to grow as a people, without hesitation, without discrimination, without vacation for millennia. Regardless of what we have done to Her, the Ganga continues in Her steady fl ow, providing the waters that offer nourishment, livelihoods, faith and hope: the waters that represents the very life-blood of our nation. If one may think of the planet Earth as a body, its trees would be its lungs, its rivers would be its veins, and the Ganga would be its very soul. For pilgrims, Her course is a lure: From Gaumukh, where she emerges like a beacon of hope from icy glaciers, to the Prayag of Allahabad, where Mother Ganga stretches out Her glorious hands to become one with the Yamuna and Saraswati Rivers, to Ganga Sagar, where She fi nally merges with the ocean in a tender embrace. As all oceans unite together, Ganga’s reach stretches far beyond national borders. All are Her children. For perhaps a billion people, Mother Ganga is a living goddess who can elevate the soul to blissful union with the Divine. She provides benediction for infants, hope for worshipful adults, and the promise of liberation for the dying and deceased. Every year, millions come to bathe in Ganga’s waters as a holy act of worship: closing their eyes in deep prayer as they reverently enter the waters equated with Divinity itself.

  • Jainism?  Jainism Is the Religion That Teaches the Idea of Liberation Through Good Acts and Harmlessness
    Hannah Boisvert, Sabrina Navarro, and Juanita Gallegos What is Jainism? Jainism is the religion that teaches the idea of liberation through good acts and harmlessness. The main goal of the Jain believer is to reach liberation of the soul. Founder & Date The lineage of the tirthankaras, Found which are the 24 great thinkers, begins with Rishabha and ends with Mahavira. Mahavira is credited to be the founder of Jainism. He was the last of the tirthankaras. Mahavira’s lifetime: 599 BCE-527 BCE He was born in Bihair, India. • It is believed that Jainism was founded in 550 BCE, and the origin of Jainism was located in India. In Jainism, the main concept is perfecting the soul. Seven or nine tattvas are the fundamental beliefs in Jainism. Other beliefs under the umbrella of the tattvas include karma, soul, and knowledge. Reincarnation occurs until the soul is free of karma. Ahisma is one of the most important Jain principles, which is the belief in nonviolence. The scale of perfection is used to free believers of karma. The salvation of the soul, moksa, comes after absolute knowledge. Jainism has beliefs in gods, but it doesn’t support the concept of god as a creator, operator, or destroyer.

Goddesses= Recognized in Buhad Shanti Demi-Goddesses Protectors of devotees and dharma Demi-Gods Arihants- destroying karmas Tirthankara- monks and nuns Reincarnation occurs until the soul is free from Concept of Afterlife karma. The soul is liberated from karma through the through scale of perfection.
