JAINISM-LIFE OF MAHAVEER BHAGWAN----!!!

"If the world can follow His teaching ,there can be heaven on earth"  I was listening to speaker during eight days celebration of Mahaveer Jayanti following due on 2nd April 2015.Since it sounded interesting and based on study, I continued listening carefully. The speech  being summarized on following lines. For blog readers it can be interesting

The period of this great soul was B.C.527 To B.C.599. He took birth in Kundalpur with Lord Siddarth and Queen Trishalamata as parents on Chaitra Shukla Teras .He got salvation in Pawapuri on day Kartik Amayasya around age of approximate 72 years. Till his last breath he was delivering lecture on 36th chapter of Sutra " Uttardyansutra."'

He obtained special full knowledge known as 'Kevaldyan" which enable to know all things for past, present and future. It is result of his vigorous Tap and mediation. He guided mankind through it to remove their sufferings and achieve salvation following his teaching.

 This great soul is being remembered even today not for his physical strength or wealth or power but for his conquering evils of soul such as love, hate, lack of true knowledge and others similar one. The three most important principle he laid down for entire mankind  are
Non-violence, Anekantwad (multi opinions) and simple living based on Ahinsa, His other principles are-Truth, Non-theft, Bramacharya and Non-possession. It can be used as tools to control desires of soul. He showed the correct path to mankind with out any self interest since he is Vitraagi- ( No love or hate) who cut off Mohniya karma.

 Non-violence means not to harm any living soul by mind, body and speech. Anekantwad means there can be more ways of believing  and expressing the truth since human beings are not capable of knowing full truth all the time. It values all opinions to avoid rising conflicts..
It implies that we shall respect views of others though may not be exactly matching with our own perceptions. It teaches the theory of coexistence. This principle is very much needed to ensure our own existence in current boiling time  as chaos depicted in image given.

If we look at the world  and observe so many wars are going on the basis of faith, regions, territory with a motive to establish self superiority. We refuse to believe entire human race to be of one category. We also refuse the right of every one to live his life on his
own terms. We want every one to be molded in our own model.
What I say is the only and only truth is current wrong philosophy, 

Territory disputes are  apparent cause while dumping of weapons, eye on natural resources, expanding empire and ego are the hidden reasons. If we study history of any particular border over a period of 500 years, it  keep changing with earth- quakes ,land sliding ,volcano ,sea-storm. cloud busting and so many other natural calamities. So many disputes can be solved with  understanding but we do not like to listen the views which is different from own thinking, view and
version. That is the root cause of current unrest seen every where.

  It results into non violence and disturb peace of the entire world. It is the fact that if all nations stop military weapons spending for a year entire poverty of the world can be removed, I do not think an expert is required to back this fact. The cut throat competition to stay ahead of others in form of military strength is consuming large part of earnings of hard work of human forces. It needs a urgent thought.

It may be too late when the human realizes that it can live with harmony only with path shown by Lord Mahaveera or else can continue to walk on path of self destruction with chaos and much sacrifice of number of innocent human lives on daily routine basis.
We are fortunate enough to have this immortal light spread by the great soul for the benefit of entire living ones. We can not afford to miss it even though we may follow different faiths of various branch.
At the end I congratulated the speaker for his contribution to revisit  thediscover the teachings of Lord Mahaveer. Time will tell if it has made the impact or else life goes on as it is-------------!!!.

JAINISM--TRUTH IS ALWAYS TRUTH--------!!!

Gurudeo was delivering lecture in " Mahaveer Class" in Upashraya. Today's topic was 25 Bol. Gurudeo completed third bol--Kaay,16th bol--24th Dandak and 21th bol--Jiva- Rashi and it's categories being-563 living and 560 non-living one. He explained it in a simpler way.

 After completion of class 3/4 from students raised doubts over the classification. They asked Gurudeo how earth, water, fire and air (Prithikaay,Upkaay,Teukaay and Vayukaay ) can be treated as living one. They do not have doubts for remaining two Kaay seen by eye- plants. animals and o moving creatures .They requested explanation. 
 In their opinion majority of men believe them to be non living. Gurudeo told that he will clarify the doubt but before he wanted the all students to answer his question by written slip.
The question was What is the significance of celebrating birthday ?.

Out of collected 60 slips the resulting answers was declared. Being-
1--It is birth time of one particular person-----57 slips.
2--We follow tradition of majority though it is only delivery time.  Real birth time is when a soul takes birth in mother's womb approximately 9.25 months prior to delivery ---02 slips.
3-It is wrong to celebrate it as a birth time, because actual birth starts when the soul leaves the previous body with death and start his new march with a destination of mother's womb---01 slips.

 After it Gurudeo continued-" Dear friends the question and answer demo shows that majority can not tell or follow the truth all the time as evident from above sample case .It is also evident in daily
practice on day to day cases. Hence majority not always be true.
In above case our exact time of birth is not known to even our own mother who gave birth but only known to Kewaldyani ,thus so many things we do not know but can know through Jinwani only.

 If what we believe is whole truth then there is no need for new research. Each year Nobel and other similar prizes are declared.
It shows that still much more is left to reach near the truth for our modern science. So we have been left with no choice but to believe fully whatever is told by Kewaldyani Mahaveerswami Bhagwan. 

If there are no living souls in those categories how various viral diseases can be spread through air, water, earth and fire ?,What keeps burning of fire on ? If air is not powerful then how sound and picture waves are being transmitted from one place to another one ?
 Just think can a seed on rock can grow ?Why it grows  only on in fertile land- ?  Soil has souls hence it can assist seed to turn into plants. We cannot see hell or heaven but as told by  Bhagwan ,we have to believe their existence. So some time in most of our wisdom we have to follow the doctrine "Tameva Sachham Nisskham Jam Jinehim Pavehyim" (It is the only and only truth that has been told by Jinendra Bhagwan. ).Such faith makes our Samkit strong and put us on the path of salvation. It reduces our life and death cycles.

Thus knowing the truth ,we must make use of these resources to the minimum extent. Boiled water or water mixed with ash prohibit new lives creeping in. So there is minimum sin in such modified careful consumption. Thus truth cannot be same as visualized from surface

Truth is whatever is told by Bhagwan. So give up your doubts with reference to our limited knowledge and start believing teachings of Bhagwan. Soon you can have tremendous treasure of knowledge.
