JAINISM-----GOD'S EXISTENCE AND JAINISM'S MESSAGE------------!!!.

Friends here sharing of some thought out of my hearing and reading. All major religions believe God's or his ambassador's to be a human. It means they may be special from birth in human form or God status might have been acquired subsequently by them through self efforts in human's particular birth. Point is earth is a birth place for all such noble souls. As at Aug.2023 approximate world population is-- 8.04 billions. It could not be same since its beginning. Just assume initial population of  only 100 number It suggests that few out of them gave

thoughts for cause of existence and tried to relate births and related issues based on ongoing life. Point is God is human discovery .This can be said to be initial process to search reasons for our existence. It may have different purpose like self security, confidence care peace.  After unknown subsequent years and numbers of thinkers the results  that may have stood up as is a religion covering birth, human control,
and happenings after his death. Universe was being created and some unknown force control it- belief emerged as on of one part and world is forever without beginning or end and nobody control is a second theory for . Beside them there can be more theories. These all related theories took form of different religions with different founders for it
 It introduced worship places, symbols different literatures  Human
used his communication skills to spread own theories to increasing population from centuries. Today whatever we witness in the form of different religions is a latest version. Now let us examine message of Jainism. Own theory of Jainism's is being universe being without it's beginning or end without any creator. Similarly no one is controlling
human life except his own actions till liberation through chains of numerous cycles of lives and deaths in different forms of four Gati. God means souls free from 4/8 Karma. Jainism differs living and non
living and says Lok operates through 6 Dravyas. Jainism message can be seen with it's theory of Ahinasa and 18 sins. Message is clear it is better to practice any religion limited to own class. Religion is a matter of faith and must confine to oneself. Basic purposes of all religion is to show ways of happiness and peace. When one attempts to establish how superior his religion and  try to expand and impose 
his followings on others then all evils begin. He forgets all  of good things and slowly engage into hate .This jealousy can even get turned into wars. One can verify the reasons behind all wars in human lives history. Majority wars were fought out of  hate for different faiths. It could have been avoided if there was respect for each other's faith. Purpose of my essays on Jainism through this Blog is to explain the contents of it in simple term in English for young generation. As I feel they should not miss a treasure of knowledge legacy left over by Mahaveer Bhagwan.  I never tried to criticize other faiths. All Soul must be free to carry on his faiths, his rituals and related practices
without any disturbances is my belief. Even I avoided to comment on inter-branches faiths. After all soul reaches to nearest to the final truth after his so many efforts to get correct knowledge and faith.
Hope it will help to reduce hate for other faiths and live in harmony.

JAINISM------DYAN AND MIND----------!!!.

Friends, here is a recap from my recent reading of Jain literature. All of us know that mind is too complex to study. Bhagwan Mahaveer in Bhagwati Sutra chapter 13/7--"Bhasha-Jiva or Ajiva" explained three components-language, mind and Kaya. Bhagwan given features of it. They are-Mind is not soul but other than it. It is Rupi as an air. It is Achit. Mind is available only to living souls. It is non living. Mind exist only while active neither exists prior nor post. It get vanishes- ( Bhedan) once it's engagement over. It is of four types. They are true, 

false mix or practical(Vavahar).In 25 Bol mind is taken as one of tool out of ten Prans. Prans are tools used to live current life. It is form of "Pudgal". It is generated out of "Prayapti".We get details of  Prayapti in 25 Bol. Prayaties are special power of a soul. They help to live life as specified by six parts of Ayushyabandh and accumulated Karmas.  Particles or tiny and "Bahu-Pradeshi" Parmanu of mind are present in Lok. Man Prayati power helps a soul to attract them and to use it. For each living soul it is different. Original Manan power get shape with so many factors. They can be kid's caste, creed, his nationality
upbringing circumstances, culture, religion, schooling, professional
or business engagements. This can explain one's liking for food and clothing's. Hence for any parents it is most important to take care of their kid's upbringing and manners as it will be a deciding factor for his decision power. Good company, good literature reading, Guru's Darshan all can shape mind. Even when all factors are same mind's activation cannot be same even in a family co- brothers. It explains 
inherent virtues of soul and difference in 8 Aatma of any living soul.
As a result one brother may be sober in dealing while other can be an aggressive. Kashay of each soul also shape his mind. We can see the transformation of a soul after his engagement with religious actions and Guru's teachings. Mind covers major memories, experience, fear, anxiety, learning ,thinking planning. Mind is available only to "Sanni Panchendriaya". Mind study is being undertaken by branches like---Psychology, neurology and spirituality. Now let us study Dhyan.  We know "Dyan" is thinking of a subject with concentration.25 Bol give us 4 types of Dyan. First two Dyan are negative while last two are
positive. Last one "Shukladyan" is not available in current era. In the Shukladyan only soul gets unique "Kewaldyan and Kewaldarshan". In present era only "Dharmadyan" is available Modern theories now advocate to concentrate on breathing. Aim behind it is to clear slate of mind and it's routine backup. kid has crystal clear mind slate as it has not been shaped by various factors yet and is in  pure innocent
state. In "Uttaradhyana Sutra" 26th chapter titled as "Samachari"
Bhagwan has asked Jain monks to do Dhyan twice in 24 hours. Thus mind and Dyan both are most powerful tools to create positivity and get free from negativity, jealousy like bad points and taking soul to a right path of knowledge and Moksha. One can start it with asking a simple question like "Who I am" then can switch slowly to nature of "Panch Parmesti , soul, eight Karmas, Nirjara and last aim Moksha. Similarly adding twelve Bhavna to the Dhyan can bring good results. If it is found difficult one can use Navkar and Loggas with meaning. Hopefully friends will use this material for betterment of current life.
A concentrated deep Dhayn can be a useful tool to look into soul. It can provide disconnections with outer chaos and offer inner peace.

JAINISM------ANY HOW STAY AWAY FROM--- "NIKACHIT KARMA"--------------!!!.

Friends here is the next coverage in KYJ series for kids by Gurudeo. "Devanupriya we have covered most important part of Jainism being Karma and it's eight types and four type of it's Bandha. To recap it Bandha is of 4 type 1 Prakruti Bandh-( which type out of 8 Karmas). 

2-Stithi Bandh-(It's period of attachment) 3.-Anubhag Bandh-It is the severity of soul while attracting Karma.4.-Pradesh Bandh-Quantity. We have also seen resultant virtue as a result of clearance of  Karma.
Soul become "Sidha when it clear all 8 Karma positive/negative. As given in 30th chapter of "Uttaradhayan Sutra" titled as "Tapomarg- I will explain the type of severity with which- Karma are being fixed. 1.-Badhaa-Lighter can be cleared with sorry like grass bundle fixed. 2- Srupshta-Tight need "Pratikaman or "Tapsya" like fixing by rope.  3.-Nidhhatta-Tighter fixed with more efforts. Needs more efforts. 
4.-Nikachit--All possible maximum efforts are involved in fixing it.
Such karma cannot be changed even slightly and need to face as it is For examples nails are kept in fire then hammered strongly to fix. Do
you remember Bhagwan Mahaveer had built " Nikachit Karma" ? when he fixed nails in ears of a" Gwala" (Herder) in his 18th birth as "Tripushta Vaudeo". Bhagwan was fond of hearing music till he went to sleep. Then the servant was to stop music. One day on waking up Bhagwan found the music going on as the servant forget to stop and slept. King ordered to fill ear of servant with lead. In this way he had built "Nikachit Karma. Those karma found their rise in birth in last life as Mahaveer. Now  I will tell you how Karmas turns into nature
of  Nikachit.  Attraction of Karma is due to action and efforts called "Yoga"( use of mind ,speech and body).It's period and severity being decided by "Kashay".Kashaya is the frame and feelings while one is  building those Karma. If one tells everyone with pride and joy look the result of my revenge--now  victim's 7 generations will not dare to come in front of me .In a second example one is saying nobody in
town can match my preparation of non vegetarian food. He does not has a feeling of regret to cut innocent animals. Of course as Jain you will not go for it entire life long I am sure. Just remember not to go for any of 18 Sin .If happen  check your feeling and go for apology. Anger or Krodh within soul is the main responsible factor to fuel any actions. Just see basic nature of water is coolness. If kept on fire and allowed to get boiled then original nature of it will turn into hotness.
More you boil more severe will be result. Similarly Kashay addition will make the action bitter and bitter.over a point it may turn into the nature of Nikachit Karma Bandh.In moments of anger soul looses his conscience or "Vivek ".Most times he looses control over his power to select correct or wrong and does things in hurry. So always take a
care to control your actions. Keep reminding soul my original nature is Dhyan, Dharshan and coolness. I need to give up all Kashay as I have to return to mine original nature while attaining moksha. This

lecture if acted sincerely can save one from lot of sufferings. Karma spares none-even he was Bhagwan Mahaveerswami .You can try a short poster in drawing room for a "No Anger Zone" signboard" Gurudeo concluded his today's lecture organized for kid's gathering .
