PARLIAMENT OF THE WORLD'S RELIGIOUS 2018, TORONTO, CANADA
Here’s how JAINA and Jains will be represented at the 2018 Parliament in Toronto, Canada on November 1-7:
40+ sessions from 20+ Jain speakers, including Acharya Lokesh Muniji, Sadhviji Shilapiji Maharaj,
Samanijis, and Dr. Sohan Lal Gandhi.
Setting up a Jain mandir at the entrance of the Exhibit Hall at the Parliament, which will be the central attraction of
the Exhibit Hall. At the 2015 Parliament in Salt Lake City, a similar mandir was constructed and was a highlight of the
main gathering area throughout the Parliament week, right at the entrance of the Parliament in front of registration.
Sponsoring the Ahimsa Award given to a non-Jain recipient that recognizing for exceptional contributions that enhance and
strengthen the interfaith community through commitment to nonviolence. This award was first given at the 2015 Parliament in
Salt Lake City, and we hope to institutionalize it as a permanent token of the Jain community's efforts and participation in
the Parliaments.
