Welcoming Paryushan: A Time for Reflection, Compassion, and Spiritual Growth

As we welcome the sacred festival of Paryushan today, JAINA extends its warmest wishes to you and your family. Paryushan is a time for deep reflection, forgiveness, and spiritual renewal—a time to cleanse our souls and reconnect with the core principles of Jainism. 


During these eight days, let us strive to live by the teachings of Lord Mahavir, practicing Ahimsa (non-violence), Satya (truthfulness), and Aparigraha (non-possessiveness) in our daily lives. Whether you are fasting, engaging in Pratikraman, or participating in local or online spiritual activities, may this period be one of profound growth and inner peace. 


JAINA is here to support you on this journey with a variety of spiritual resources, including interactive online sessions in English, Gujarati, and Hindi language, led by esteemed Jain scholars. These sessions offer a unique opportunity to ask questions and engage directly with academically acclaimed scholars. Whether you have long-standing doubts or seek deeper insights into Jain principles and practices, these lectures are designed to help you clear your mind and enrich your spiritual understanding.
