JAINISM--BE CONNECTED WITH DHARMA--------!!.

Friends ,I realized that a break in any routine is too difficult to cope with. After Gurudeo left the premises after four months, we missed
his lectures very much. On full dark day, I made it a point to attend
his lecture in nearby area with our group. Here is the summary.
"Devanupriya ,today I intend to brief you all on importance of our
connectivity with Dharma or religion .If we look at masses at large
we can see that number of people engaged in sins are more and
people suffering is also large. On the other hand the people who

cares to avoid sins and happy is much lesser. If one try to analysis
the probable causes, it can be variation in connectivity levels with
Dharma. Dharma can offer you mental peace and simple living. Path
of life is too difficult. The rope of Dharma protect us everywhere.
Dharma is to surrender to almighty with faith. It is beyond logic and
science. It may not bring immediate miracles or relief but definitely
it will support a falling guy mentally.

Here ,I will like to present a example of water. A connectivity with
water by cement can convert it into concrete. A glass of water in a
desert can save a life. Water in fertile land can work wonders for
agricultural land. Same way Dharma can change our destiny present
and future. Dharma is a rope which can assist to walk on road of life
Take another example of a kite. A kite supported by a string can be
sure to land on earth while a needle can be protected if it is duly

fixed  by a string. A torch in hand while passing through forest in 
a dark night can ensure smooth walking. Same is case with human.
If we are attached to Dharma ,we can face the adversities of life in a
much calm ways. Dharma grants us wisdom to remain calm in life.
Dharma assist you to know soul and your last destination- Moksha.
Getting Jain religion is the most precious gift one can get from his
good deeds. As a peculiar human nature we don't care about what
we get without oblivious cost or labor. One shall not allow it happen

Jain religion is being started by Bhagwan Rishabhdevji He is called
as "Aadinath" Aadi means beginner.All subsequent Thirtankars also form "Thirth" after the continuation gets broken by salvation of the previous Thirthankar. One may ask how I can attach to Dharma--- ?.
The answer is simple.If one cares for others and avoid sins and 4
Kashay it is Dharma Kashay covers anger, pride .cheating and greed.
Second part consist of time and sacrifice. It covers Samaik, fast,
reading Aagam. All such rituals train us to have correct behavior.
You are fortunate enough to have Jainism as religion. I do hope
you will utilize the opportunity in most efficient manner.Keep it
mind forever Dharma will definitely stand by  you when you need
it in most negative phase of life"Gurudeo concluded.

JAINISM---FINAL DEPARTURE AND ALLOWED BAGGAGE------------!!!.

Friends 2019 Chaturmas ended on 12/11/2019. We gathered to bid farewell to Gurudeo on 13th November 2019.Here is the summary of his last lecture before moving to next destination for Blog readers.
"Devanupriya,at start of Chaturmas the period of 4 months seemed
to be long enough. At  end of it, we find it a too small period. This
is the speed of time. It passes and we do not realize it. Entire human
life from a kid to old age is being marked by same speed. While we 

pass through present stage, we do not bother about passing time. At
the end we realize the mistake. In last four moths, I tried my best to
present Jinwani to maximum of my capacity. As you all are aware
after this lecture, I will leave this location. It is as per order of our
respected Bhagwan Mahveer. As per his instructions any monk
after completing 120 days must leave the place on Migsar  Vadi 1st.

In normal travel to enjoy our travel, we take care to have minimum
of baggage. Most of us do not bother to plan of final departure from
current world. We assume to be an immortal self. Unfortunately it is
a myth. We conveniently forget the most certain event in form of a
death. Death is a certain event with uncertain time of happening.
We fail to acknowledge death, as a result of it the planning for last
baggage remains absolutely missing. Forgetting probable death. we
keep on running here and there for material things. We add all types
of wealth and relations. In the process of accumulation we forget the

wrong deeds or sins which might have helped us to maximize the 
wealth. All such negative acts causes the accompanying baggage to
get heavier in form of Karma. Just give a thought what can one take
along with him while bidding last farewell----?.Dollars, rupee or any
other currency, gold. silver or diamonds ?.One may list hundreds of
precious things. As a thumb rule over the centuries not a single penny could have been deported. Then why we live a stressful life for ever is a question we should ask ourselves. All type of wealth end with last breath and all relations ends in graveyard. Harsh fact
of human life irrespective of status of a deceased  person. It is a sad
irony of human life that we care less for baggage of our own soul
and we care much for baggage which cannot carry but to be handed
over to others.The beneficiaries may or may not remember you.

We are proud of our wealth. We cherish related memories and get happiness. As a practice a document called succession certificate,
probate or will  in favor of nominees can change our ownership in
less than 24 hours. At this last lecture. I just want to make you all
aware for the final departure. Material things have not accompanied
any one nor will accompany you. So take care of your positive and
negative deeds and resultant Karmas" .If one truly follow Bhagwan
Mahaveers's fifth Vrata of non-possessions, he can have minimum

baggage to carry at departure time. If one could not reduce his love for material things, at least take care not to add wealth by wrong means. corruption, fraud and cheating " Gurudeo concluded.

JAINISM--GOSHALAK-THE SOUL WHO TROUBLED BHAGWAN-----!!!

Friends Jain culture has a particular tradition to celebrate a day to celebrate knowledge. It is known as"Dyanpanchmi". It is the 5th day after Diwali. It is widely believed that it is best auspicious day
to begin learning of "Aagam".Aacharyadevgani Shraman started to

compose Aagam on this day. Gurudeo read 15th chapter of the Sutra
Bhagwatiji. It is based on life of main disciple of Bhagwan named
Mankhiyaputra Goshalak. Later on after taking Dikha from Pujaya Bhagwan Mahaveerswami ,this monk revolted against Bhagwan. He refused to believe teachings of Bhagwan Mahaveer and formed his
own theory advocating destiny"Niyativaad".Gurudeo selected this
chapter to guide us for what Bhagwan's intentions to tell it at full
length to Guruguatamswami. Telling, reading or listening this needs
fast or Aaimbil to protect from bad vibes of some heavenly Gods. I
listened to it having Pachkan of two Porishi. Readers can decide for.

The moral of it is never to disrespect Guru or any knowledgeable
person. Bhagwan saved him from a strong weapon "Tejoleshaya".
It is obtained by a vigorous fast. It empowers the user to burn any
soul or object. Goshalak came to argue with Bhagwan. In process,
he got angry and abused Bhagwan. When  two of Bhagwan's monks
named "Sarvanubhutiji and Sunakshtraji" tried to pacify him. he
used "Tejoleshya" and killed them out of his sheer burning anger.

At the end he got upset and angry, used another Tejoleshaya to kill
Mahaveerbhagwan himself. But he could not succeed. The fire used was capable of burning 16 country. Just imagine power The burning
caused heavy health problem to Bhagwan. While using it ,the fire
moved around Bhagwan and returned to Goshalak. It caused death
of Goshalak in 7 days. The power of the flames of Tejoleshaya was
able to burn sixteen states of Bharatkhetra as named in Sutra.

Bhagwan's devotee were worried for health of Bhagwan. Bhagwan
knew his time of last breath. He informed them that nothing bad will happened to him. For next16 years he will be alive and fully getting
engaged in spreading the light of Jinwani. After six months of the
event, Sinhaangar got medicine as Bhagwan advised him from
Rewatishrawika and got cured fully. With unique charity Shravika has built higher Gati's life The medicine she gace was known as
"Bijorapaak.".The sin committed by Goshalak was too serious. It

might have action of few hours but the act delayed his salvation by
countless births. At the last time of his death, Goshalak only felt bad
for his action so he touched "Samkit" but failed to say sorry to the
Bhagwan with a regret feelings. As a result he could not become
"Aaradhak" and paying a heavy price for it in form of numerous
life and death cycles in all four Gaties. With good deed balance.at
present he is in 12th Deologa Devotees need not to have any bad or
ill feelings towards souls who have made Bhagwan to suffer. We all need only to pray for their regaining  correct knowledge and faith.

With this chapter Bhagwan gave us a warning to care for our any
type of disrespect. On this day one can also read the"Nandisutra".It
informs the types of five knowledge. Chandakaushik and Goshalak
both troubled Bhagwan deeply. But Chandakaushik, when came to know the greatness of Bhagwan ,he asked for his forgiveness but
Goshalak failed to do it. This difference in attitude decided their next lives and salvation. Chandakaushik will have comparatively less time

for getting liberated, We shall learn from mistakes of him and never forget obligations of Guru who gave us Dyan " Gurudeo concluded.

 JAI JINENDRA---------!!!--------- JAI MAHAVEER----------!!!.

          

JAINISM---VEERNIRVAN--- A GENTLE REMINDER--!------!!.

Friends herewith I share, Gurudeo's message for coming Diwali.
 "For most of Jain Diwali festival is of immense important for two
reasons.On this day of Kartik Vadi Amawasya, Mahaveer Bhagwan
achieved Moksha and Guru Guatamswami got Kewaldyan. As a
respect to these noble souls, we celebrate Diwali.To celebrate this
most Jain observe fast. They also recite 108 times Pucchisunam.

Next day we have tradition to attend lecture of Gurudeo. Gurudeo
covers full "Utradhyanasutra" as Bhagwan got salvation when he
was addressing 36th chapter of this Sutra at Pawapuri in Bihar. As a
fact death is painful for us but Bhagwan's death was "Panditmaran".
With it Bhagwan ended cycles of life and death.hence to mark this
rare and unique achievement of his, we celebrate Diwali festival.

 Gurudeo advised devotees to have 108 reading of Pucchisunam.
Those who find it difficult for 108 times reading can  begin it from
today.Thus within 10 days it can be completed. Together with the family we have also to aim at a combined prayer. It shall read as-Mahaveerswami Huye Nirvan,Gutamswami Paya Kewaldyan".

Blog readers can have the text of "Pucchisunam " in this bog series.
If we look back at lives, we owe a huge debts to Mahaveerbhagwan.
We cannot imagine the quantum of 18 sins that we avoided with his
teachings. Bhagwan knew his last breathing point. He also knew
that the souls taking birth in Bharatshetra will have only 2 Siddha
named Gurugutam and Jambuswami after his Moksha/ salvation. 
Soon after approx. 1000 years lapsed from his departure from earth
after his salvation ,this area will be just like orphan in absence of
Kewali and intellectuals.Keeping this in mind Bhagwan covered
most important teachings to live life in Vipak and Uttaradhyansutra

As a true devotee and follower of Lord Mahaveer ,it is basic duty of
all of Jain to have minimum one reading or hearing this Sutra. In
present time when money got absolute dominance over values, we
regard Diwali as festival of Goddess Laxmi rather than our founder.
One is always free to follow his faith and traditions. Just as a part of
my job and duty, I reminded you all. Unless senior members of each

family follow the religious tradition and Jain culture ,it will be very
difficult to carry forward Bhagwan's message. For a single recite
one hardly needs max a time of three minutes, Thus one can cover
nearly 16 recitation in a Samaik and it not that difficult. Friends,
just store a rule in your brain forever-worshiping and respect of
Arihant and Siddaha Parmatama brings you closer to salvation by
keeping 18 sins away" Gurudeo concluded his message.

JAI JINENDRA-------------!!!- JAI MAHAVEER----------------!!!.

JAINISM--IMPORTANCE OF HUMAN LIFE----!!!

In this Chaturmas Gurudeo's major focus and emphasis is on the
youth. He visualized the need for their timely training and education
In series of his continuous efforts- here is the coverage of lecture.
"Dear youth, I can see strong hands and shoulders in you to bear the
torch of Mahaveer Bhagwan's Jainism. Today, I aim to brief you the
maximum achievements one can have  in life in a human birth.

 In 25 Bol you have studied features of all living souls. Human being
enjoy five organs and ten Pran.They are gifted with intelligence and
mind. With former they can know things, with mind they can decide
what is good and what is bad for them. We all gathered here are too
fortunate to take birth in  a Jain heritage formed by Mahaveerswami. As human we are fortunate to get full five organs ,mind and memory,

 You will be delighted to know that only through this human life
we can take Dikha, become monk and achieve salvation. The unique
feature of this life is we can take Pachkhan. Souls in heaven are
enjoying all type of wealth and comforts. Souls in hell are in misery.
Both can not take Pachkan and Dikha. Only few animals can go for
Pachkan like cow, dog and others. If you know teachings of Jainism
you can avoid so many bad things and falling in bad company in life.

In physical world you know the achievements of human It varies
from making a needle to nuclear weapons. In spiritual world human
can start from Navkar, fast, Samaik, Dikha and reach to final step of
becoming- a Thirtankar and salvation. Jainism motivate us to avoid sins and engage in cutting bad Karma termed as Karma Nirjara.
In spiritual world of Jainism there are many positive things one can
do till becoming Kewali or Trinthankar,Trithankar Bhagwan cannot
do only six things listed herewith. They are the only impossible for.

1-To convert living soul into non living.
2-To convert non living into living.
3-To speak at same time in two languages,
4-To go beyond Loga.
5-To escapes awards of Karma and lastly-
6-To alter life span of self or any one else.
Only I can advice you to maximum utilize this best opportunity that
is being offered by current life. In all other types of life one get very
limited opportunity to cut negative Karma. On the other hand those
lives offer more chances of sins. Best determination  for you will be
to keep Mahaveer Bhagwan as role model and try to live life as per
his guidelines as guided by Gurudeo. There is no point in allowing
this precious life go waste. Try to be a real monk, if it is found to be

difficult be a good and true Shrawak .There is no point to wait for  reaching old age to start Dharma- Aaradhana. Start it from current  moment. Bhagwan warned "Samay Goyamam na Payaye" Gurudeo concluded his advice with a small prayer.

JAI JINENDRA--------------!!!---- JAI MAHAVEER------------!!!.

JAINISM--KARMA THEORY And RADIO WAVES--------!!!

Friends,here is the summary of another camp attended by me for youth based on Jainism.At usual time Gurudeo started the session.
"Dear young pillars of Jainism,Today I am very excited to explain 
Karma theory to you. I am confident that as a student of science all
of you can understand it with an example of radio as a basic symbol.

In simple terms Karma is nothing but actions of  soul covering all 3
period-past, present and future, Future is yet to come but one's plans
for it may attract Karmas. In routine life always we attach a concept of accountability. Now let study accountability of own actions.

One anchor broadcast news from radio station. His sound waves
are being transformed into electrical waves through transmitter. The
waves now spread in universe, At same time you happened to start
your radio by starting radio and tuning to a particular station. The
inbuilt detector mechanism of radio, transforms the electrical waves
into original sound waves. Now you can hear good or bad news.

Similarly particles of Karma (termed- Karman Vargana) are always
present around us .They are of 15 types. It covers 8 types of Karma,
and particles of 4 Sharir ( body)(Odariksharir,Vekriyasharir,Karman
sharir and Tejassharir ),language,breathing,and mind.Actions of 
soul using any or all of three-mind,speech and body is called Yoga.

When Yoga is mixed by 4 Kashay (anger,pride,greed and tactics),it
makes the Karman body of a soul active. It attracts the particular
Karma and fixes it to soul for a finite variable period. On maturity
the soul gets the result either good or bad. Mud is a result of mixing
of water with soil. Any one of them cannot create mud, Similarly
in absence of action to attract Karma. they cannot be attached to us.
Siddahaji have no Kashay, no Yog, so they do not have new Karma.
Maturity period is important as a child takes some gap to speak.
 Main reason of attachment of Karma is hate and affection. They
are both are like electrical current positive and negative. One gets a person attracted like magnet and other one throw him away, We
avoid both of such currents. Second reason is of attachment Karma
is called "Adyavyavsaay".It means feeling ,sentiments and emotion
of a soul when something happens and we react. If one get himself
lifted above hate and attachment with love much can be avoided.

 For mind to be blessed with good and pure thoughts, one must try
to be in good company, better atmosphere and good book .Moradevi
Mata could achieve salvation with purity of thoughts riding on the
elephant. She at that time was not even monk by taking Diksha.
 A Jain devotee gets strength from Karma theory. He knew from the
bottom of heart that nobody except his Karma has power to make
him suffer. As a result he faces the happenings with calm and in
equality state of mind. Karmas are non living and soul is living one
Though non living still Karma carry the power to award the results
to the doer as a tablet has power to offer relief from pain or fever.
At the end the soul with it's maximum capacity can nullify all of
the Karma's built and ensure salvation. Salvation is nothing but
the body less existence of soul at it's purest form for ever.

Dear devotees after few years you can study the rich literature on
Karma theory. There are masterpieces which covers it. To name a few-Karmagrantha by Marudharkesari Mishrilaljimaharasaab, then
Karmavidyan by Aacharya Devendramuni.Karmasahita by Sadhvi
Yugalnidhikripa and others. Friends in nutshell if everyone cares
for his action we can have heaven on earth " Gurudeo concluded.

JAIJINENDRA----------------!!! JAI MAHAVEER--------------!!!.

JAINISM---PREFERABLE BRANCH OF JAINISM---------!!!.

Friends lastly with few personal issues, I could not attend lectures of Gurudeo. After a long gap I can attend it. In my last visit I attended
the camp for youth based on Jainism. Here is the brief coverage. I feel, it can be very useful to clear the air among Jain devotees.
 With due permission one young chap around age 20 put his query
to Gurudeo. "Sir, my father belongs to "Sthanak" branch while my
mother came from "Mandir" branch of Jainism. Our family used to

visit both places .I wish to know what is correct thing to do for me."
Here is the answer by Gurudeo " Dear .with such a young age you
have put a very difficult question to me. Since it is a matter of faith,
it will not be appropriate for me to stand by a particular choice. As
you can see, I took Diksha in "Sthanak Parampara "long ago so I am following "Sthanak" branch. But I will not say that worshiping to
Lord Mahaveer by any other method can be wrong. Hereby I give
 a example and leave it to your wisdom to decide it. 

   
Suppose there are two brothers from desert of Rajasthan. Through
books they came to know the beauty and excellent fragrance of the
roses from Kashmir. Now in Rajasthan, they cannot have the actual
roses .To overcome it one of the duo get statue of rose as described
in books and put it his room. As such he try to satisfy his urge to to see and meet roses. The other fellow with his imagination try to
visualize the rose and roses and get satisfied. As a fact they have
made a arrangement where they can have a temporary meeting with their likes on a daily basis. Physical meeting with roses seems to be a distance dream. In such a case they made a possible attempt. 

Now please allow me to replace roses by Mahaveer Bhagwan (Siddha),24 Thirathankars (Siddha) and Simandarswami with other
19 Viharman ( Arihant Bhagwan ) in Mahavedeha region.As a fact
Siddhabhagwan are body less souls and Arihantbhagwan are with
human body. We all Jain from all branches are devotees of Siddha
and Arihant Bhagwan. We all are offering our respect and bowing
down to them as per our own traditions .It may differ from branch
to branch but intentions of all devotees are same and common .We
wish to have their blessings to get salvation at earliest. As given in
14/10 Bhagwatiji Siddha and Kewali can see and know all of us. We
can always worship them in simple and silent manner instead of a
louder one. The sentiments of prayer are important than surrounding

In present period for all of us it is too difficult to see our deities
with eyes. It is for various reasons like area of our Bharatkhetra,
Pancham Kaal and coverage of negative Karmas. As long as the
statue provides inspiration and motivation to follow the numerous
virtues of our deities. I could not have issue with it. When the action
of worship involves any tiny action of sin. glamour or adjusting the
five Mahavratas ,I cannot support it. If process of worship requires
use of flowers, jewelry, ornaments, clothes, water, milk, rice, Kesar music system, oil lamps ,Dhoop, fire stick, Ghee, turmeric,lighting etc, then the action needs a serious review.

One may not agree with me. But definitely one can check actions
with reference to study of Aagaam and Jain literature. One must be
careful enough to check that his "Samkit" which amount to right
action and right faith does not get any harm. Check your any action do not cross 25 Mitthyatva criteria. This is what I can say all about

 the issue at this juncture, Kewali know the exact truth,. One if free to have faith in any one of two branches. Digamber or shwetamber. One do not use cloth as it amount to" Parigraha" later use only white clothes to cope with time. Even in later one like visit to temple one like to go Stanak. For me it makes no difference as long as they have faith in Jinwani" Gurudeo concluded the answer. I looked at devotee
 he thanked Gurudeo and sat down, I failed to judge his feelings.
