JAINISM-MAHAVEER NURSERY TO MAHAVEER COLLEGE-------------!!!

It was 14/11/2016 full moon day and last day of this current year's Chaturmas. We all gathered to say thanks and goodbye to Gurudeo for his four months preaching. We could not request him to extend stay since in no case monk can extend stay beyond four months as per guidelines of Mahaveerswami. Monks have to obey the guidance
This is essential to avoid negative points of too much familiarity. It is based on theory that moving water of river remains fresh while water in pond get polluted with mud and dust.Hence moving is necessary.
First time three prominent Shravaks spoke to express their delight and achievements in spiritual terms as a effect of Chaturmas. They wished fair and safe onward journey of Gurudeo and requested him for his last message. His last message covers topic of this blog to motivate blog readers. Hope it will serve the purpose.
 "Acquiring right knowledge is first step towards salvation road." Gurudeo started his message. We all were carefully listened

With it correct faith follows leading to last step of correct character. So to impart Jainism knowledge from childhood it is need of hour to have schools for kids similar to concept of Gurukul as in ancient age.

We can give material inheritance in form of wealth to our kids in traditional ways. Unfortunately it will not accompany him for ever. Similarly professional education may solve his bread and butter needs. It can make him smart and scholar but to make him simple and honest- Jainism study is essential and must to add kid's bringing.
His spiritual thirst will not be quenched without Jinwani. So our aim should be to  give him ever lasting gift in form of correct knowledge so his base and foundation will be strong till last breath. If possible we shall aim to have school, teachers, books and mode of transport to arrange Jainsm education of kids. It can bring a healthy change.

Not to dream all big in first instance. With full devotion, efforts and
determination, let us proceed in correct directions for achieving it.
One can start it by offering place in own flat for two days in a week-Saturday and Sunday. It can be with rotation options with like minded group members .If the group arrange free pick up and drop it can add more students. More and more incentives can be thought of.
Knowledge available through Jainism's Aagam They are   now a days is limited since main 12th Aagam "Drishtivaad" got vanished after 1000 years of last Bhagwan  Pujya ShreeMahaveerswami.

However other books are available easily. In a great efforts to preserve it in Pune Katraj Aagam Jain temple all books are being carved in brass plates on all four large surrounding walls of temple. Really it is most appreciated and welcome human efforts. It is a pride and delight moment to watch the correct carvings on metal plates.

 Many Jain Educational Boards provides syllabus and various levels of examinations. One can have affiliation with such institutions.3 to 5 age group can cover up to nursery with syllabus from Navkar Mantra to Samaik and 20 onward group can have Aagam literature.

Seniors knowing the Bhagwan's teaching can spare time to educate such students. Such "Dharamprabhavana" can help them to build our

tremendous positive Karmas. Soon the moment can spread to whole world. I am not advocating conversion or forcefully imparting of Jinwani. But a born Jain or one interested in it must have opportunity to know what really Bhagwan has told for all of us. Only then he can vouch  greatness and correctness of Bhagwan's Jinwani.

As per order of Lord Mahaveer ,we have to carry forward  the torch  of our religion to 21000 years from salvation of Bhagwan. Unless we take care to educate our kids the task assigned to us may not be  called as completed" Gurudeo concluded for a while.
Lastly he added you must be happy for my departure for two reasons. First I am following order of Bhagwan and secondly that others  at various locations can get benefit of hearing Jinwani. Be engage yourselves in reducing bad Karma till I come back. Hope our soul gets more cleaner  when we meet next time, Khamatkhamna

We all stood up to show respect to him offered "Tikutto" Pranam and left the venue. I was nervous with a thought  when in future will get such chance. But agreed for leaving to respect his thoughts.
