2015 Praryushan MAHAPARVA is in full swing. For all Jain from different sections, those are the most auspicious 8 days of a year.
It started on 11/09/2015 and will end on 18/09/2015. One day's gap or variation might be there due to Thithies calculations adopted by different sections of Jain. One can free follow any week as per faith.
Gurudeo explained the purpose of such wide celebration which is being shared with my viewers. Hope it can be useful to all of them.
As per 70th chapter of Aagam- Samwayangsutra Sawastari falls due on 50th day from starting of Chaturmas. This is the basic rule of it.
The Chaturmas ends after 70th days of Swastari. Sawastari always falls due on Shuklapanchmi of every Bhadrapadha month of year.
The reason behind such great importance is being attached to this day must be understood. There are chances of next life fixation (Aayushya Bandh) on this particular day as told by Mahaveerswami.
Hence it is just like examination on this day for components of soul based on past deeds and present state of mind on this particular day.
Original nature of soul is crystal clear like water but with Kashaya such as- Anger, pride, smartness used to cheat and greed, we make it dark and darker and move in opposite direction of salvation.
First seven days are for practice to bring such spoiled soul on it's original track with proper cleaning and form ( From Vibhavdasha to Swabhavdasha ) and last day is giving the test with full preparation.
Now one can ask what difference it makes, since we may take birth only to 1 section out of 4 sections i.e. Hell, Heaven. Human and Plants/Animals. If you have pure thoughts, pure actions and full faith in Jinawani ( Samkit) while your Aayushya bandh is taking place, you can build Aayushyakarma of category which will have salvation possibility earlier than other categories. For example "Samyakdrishti Vemanikdeo " ( 1to12 Deolog and Anuttarviman ) category can have possibility of salvation in shorter span than hell or Ordinary heaven. For example after 25th life as Nandan Rajkumar (Human) Mahaveer Bhagwan took birth in 10th Deologa called Pranat and in 27 last life as human, took birth in this Bharatkhetra and got salvation.
As a tradition people visit Sthanak / Temple to hear Antagarhasutra which covers stories of 90 selected souls who got salvation during tenure of Thitthankar Arishtanemiji to Mahaveerbhagwan.
We get inspiration from noble souls like Gajsukumalmuni and Arjunmali to face results of Karmas with happy state of soul and pay off the debts of Karmas as quickly as possible by various ways of Jainism to get salvation. Hence Sutra hearing is essential.
So friends be proud of our tradition. Contribute what ever best you can do. One can go for fast, Samaik, Swadhyay, Poshaad, Pachakhan ,Aalochana ( review of wrong doing in a year ),Asking for forgiveness -"Khamatkamna" etc. One must have target not to miss Pratikaman of this day. Whatever you do ,do with best possible human capacity full determination, can help to cut negative Karmas.
All the best and Good Luck-------!!! .Let us utilize the opportunities.
