Dear Sadharmik brothers and sisters,
Jai Jinendra!

On this second day of Paryushan, let's deepen our resolve to live a life of non-violence (Ahimsa). By embracing Ahimsa, we can foster harmony within ourselves and the world around us. Let our thoughts, words, and actions be a testament to the power of compassion.
We encourage you to join our live lectures conducted by Jain Scholars in English, Gujarati, and Hindi, both in the morning and evening. The Paryushan lectures will also be accessible through the JAINA Mobile app for your convenience. Please check the link / QR code below to download JAINA Mobile App. Feel free to actively engage by asking questions to address any doubts you may have. Additionally, you are welcome to attend the discourses of our revered Pujya Gurudev and seek his blessings. Your active participation will enrich your spiritual journey.
Sincerely and respectfully,
Haresh Shah, JAINA President
