JAINISM-------JAIN UNIVERSE-----------!!!.

Friends here is a brief coverage of Gurudeo's Sunday lecture for kid.  "Devanupriya I hope you all are finding the various topics discussed under "Know Your Jinwani." Today I am introducing in a short the basic of universe called as "Lok. The subject can not be completed in a full month. My aim to make you aware of it's basic concepts.

 Entire 3 "Aagams " explain it. They are Jambudiwpapranapti. Suryapranapti and Chandrapranapti. My aim is to share basics of it. Universe is mainly of 3 parts. Added by "Siddhasheela" can be  four.

1-Siddhasheela.2-Deolog3-Tirchalog and last one 4.-Hell- when we start from top to bottom. These 4 parts in totality called "Lok". Area out of "Lok" is called "Alok". The difference is due to presence of 6

Asthikaay in Lok as given in 25 Bol. In "Alok only sky is present. In absence of it no living or non living thing is- present there. Alok is too vast than Lok. Siddha Bhagwan's souls cannot cross Lok limit as there is absence of "Dharmastikaay" Total area of Lok is 14 Rajju. It can not be expressed in measurement. In book you will find example of 1000 iron balls, Bhagwan said each of us took birth in each place.  1-Deologa -is consist of 2 parts. First part is called as "Kalpopannak Second part called "Kalpatit".In former all Devta are equal while in

second part "Indra or Ahmindra" is senior followed by various ranks. First part have 3 classes--1-Anuttara-5.-2,Anudesh-9.3-Graveyak-9.

Second part has 1 to twelve Deologa. Souls going to higher with and good deeds, Tap, Sanwar. Jyotishideo sun, moon are in upper part.

The two namely Bhuvanpati and Vyanvantar Deo are in lower part.   2.-Manushya Lok.-- Area of 45 lacs Yojan is Manushyalog and is called as "Jambudwipa" a dot like area at surface.It is situated at the surface called "Ratnaprabha Pruthvi" It covers following 5 Category.

A.-Jambudwipa 1 lac Yojan having 3 Karmabhumi 1-Bharatkhetra-  2.Eravaatkhetra x1.3-Mahavidhehakhetra x 1.It has 6 Akarmabhumi.

B-Ghatakikhand-8 lac Yojan having 6 Karma +12 Akarmabhumi. It has 2 each Bharat, Eirawat and Mahavideha- Khetra. 

C- Ardhapushkar Dwipa-16 lac Yojan- 6 Karma+12 Akarmabhumi D-Lawan-Samudra-4 lac Yojan.                                                            E-Kalodhadhisamudra-16 Lac Yojan.1+8+16+4+16-Total 45 L yojan

F. In Jambudwipa there are total fifty-six- Antardwipa (inner island)

In all 5 Mahavideha there is always same cycle of time and always have salvation of human. In Bharat and Eirawat there is rotation of cycle known as Awasarpini and Utsarpini having six cycles each. Let me tell you about Akarmabhumi. Here humans need to get engage in

agricultural or trading or weapons to live life. For it ten types of  Kalpavruksha are available. They take birth jointly as "Yugalik".In center of Jambudiwpa highest mountain exist called" Meru Parvat". It's length is 1 lac Yojan. Devta celebrate all Kalyanaks here.

3.-Naraki---Lower part is hell having 7 Naraki. At end of it there is

Nigod--Ghanodhadhivat--Ghanawat- Tanuwat and lastly- sky. Kids,

 Bhagwan in 9/33 chapter of Bhagwatiji --told that universe was, is

and will be there as it is permanent and without end and beginning.

External it will be same ,internal changes may happen due to natural calamities like earthquake, fire, volcano, hurricane ,storm. landslide, like or manmade like forest cutting or roads, bridge construction. It  is Druva, Nitya, Shashwat and Akshay. This provides you the basics. With age gain you can have more reading of Jain Aagam to gain more and more knowledge''Gurudeo concluded his today's lecture.

JAINISM----YES----! -- --WE CAN DO IT-CHATURMAS-23.--------------!!!.

Friends here's next lecture coverage in  series of "Know Jinwani."  "Devanupriya from life of Bhagwan Mahaveer we knew indefinite power of any soul backed by determination. Bhagwan has in his short span of life being only 72 years- cut off all Karma and got salvation. If we take his life as a roll model and try- in few lives we can succeed to achieve the most distant dream of any Bhavi soul.

 Each soul is being backed by " Bal, Veerya and Utthan".To know "Jinwani"32 Aagams and Jain Granths are a genuine source. We may find it difficult to cover all of them in 2023 Chaturmas alone. Here is the list to basic knowing and learning which can help you to know.  1-Samaik.-2.-Pratikaman.-3-Nine Tatva.4.-25 Bol.5.-14 Niyam and 3 Manorath.6.- Preliminary Pachkhan taking and 7.-Puchisunama.This steps will prepare the pitch for four essentials of Moksha. Bhagwan has told four tool for salvation. Dyan, Darshan, Charitya and Tap are

those four tools. As before monsoon any farmer leverage his land to  sew the seeds, we all who aim for Moksha need these seven basics. I will explain how these basic help you to prepare ground of Moksha.  1-Samaik- It is an entry point to Jain spiritual world. All 48 minutes allow you to be alone with self soul disconnecting with outer world.

2.-Pratikaman--It covers major concepts of Jainism such as 18 sins,

Pachkhan to avoid them, Salekhna with Santhara,15 Karma-Daan,25 Mittatva,84 million birth places, nature of Panch Parmesthi-- highest pure souls, purification of faith - Samkit and Karyostarga (Dhayan).

3.Nine Tatva-It is a brief introduction to subjects dealt by Jainism. It

helps to clarify easily basic concepts of Jain philosophy with clarity. 4.-25Bol--It is a Gem of knowledge for all beginners being relevant

summary from various Aagam. It gives a glimpse of things covered. 5.-14 Niyam and 3 Manorath-It is a easy tool for Charitya building. With  guidelines, limits and restrictions daily life can be carried on

with a most simple and less sinful ways. Sunrise and set Pachkhans a good health can be assured for more "Dharma Sadhana" with a ease.

3 Manorath cultivate non possession, Diksha Santhara and Moksha. 6.-Pachkhans-We should know wording to take Pachkhan. With it a

Shrawak enters category of "Desh Virati" and eligible for Devloga.  7- Puchhisunam--With it's learning we can pay tribute to our role model Lord Mahaveerswami who had shown us path of salvation. It

gives idea of all qualities needed to become Arihant and Siddha.        8.-Khamatkhamna and Aaloyana----Former is asking for other's  forgiveness for our misbehavior with them. Later is self review and

criticizing self for wrong deeds. Both actions makes soul lighter.        9-Swadhay---It is reading 32 Aagams in specified timings.One can start with Dushvekalik and Uttaradyan and end with Bhagwatiji. At

first may be felt like too difficult but go for second or more reading.  10-Manglik-It is always better to have "Sharna" of four auspicious deities in all times good or bad. They give us inner spiritual strength.

Hope you can make days wise target for learning and complete the basic tasks within time frame of this Chaturmas. Senior Shrawaks can guide the beginners. We all monks can be approached whenever felt necessary" Gurudeo concluded his today's motivational lecture.

It is just like a maintenance work shop. Readers who are  regulars with this Blog may have idea for minimum must in this period. For newcomers I am listing it again. Try to follow them.  1-Minimum four Upwas or Ekaasan- Start and end day of Chaturmas and Paryushan Parva. At any condition not to miss Upwaas on holy

day of Sawanstari as it can be a "Aayushya Bandh" day for anyone. 2.--Pratikaman, Aaloyana and Khamtakhamna for the Sawastari day.  3.-Hearing "Antagarha Sutra" in eight days of  Paryushan Parva. In this sutra you can meet Hero like Gajsukumal Muni and Arjunmali, 4.-Hearing "Uttaradhyan Sutra" on next day of Diwali- on Pratipada. It has background of Bhagwan getting Moksha while reciting it.        If possible then arrange "Guru Darshan" and hearing their lectures.

In outer area than India being "Anarya Desh" difficult to have Jain monk presence. In such circumstances "Samaik can be done at home with "Swadhya" of Aagam. Main purpose should be "Nirjara" of all the negative Karmas. Our engagement with 18 sins is in real terms is 24x7.On such scale 4 months period is not enough to clear sins of 8 previous months. Just give it a thought that how much time of this 4 months we should use. We shall aim to use this holy period to learn

whatever we could not learn so far. It can be from taking Samaik to learning Pratikaman.25 Bol or remembering "Pucchisunam".One can even think of to do "Swadhaya" of 32 Aagam. It can open a treasure  of true  knowledge for us. Jinwani has full capacity to lift us on the path of salvation. Friends good luck and best wishes for your Nirjara.

JAINISM--WORSHIPING PANCH PARMESTHI__!!!

 Friends, here is a brief coverage for Gurudeo's guidance in a summer camp held in city recently for kids in the age group of 10 to 20 years  "Dear kids you are a great treasure for Jain religion. How all of you perform task of torch bearer for Jainism- will decide the intact nature of Jainism  in years to come. This is the reason I selected today's topic for this camp .I desire that you should know the reasons to worship Punch Parmesthi of Navkar Mantra. Only orally recitation

of it will not be sufficient. you must know the background for which so many devotees bow down to those five great souls without having any specific name. worshipping is a rare and last step. This is an end result of a long process. It starts with  interest, liking, appreciation, love and respect. If you  can learn the reasons for this worship it can add a new dimension to all of your feelings, respect and devotions.     Arihant Bhagwan.------Here the meaning of the word "Ari-Hant" is very important. Ari means enemy and Hant means the destroyer. A warrior is always looked at with a respectful eye. Here this warrior has won the war with his inner self. He fought his this unique war not with any outside enemy or any reason of caste or  creed, color, nationality or boundary. He fought a most difficult war with his evils within in form of Kashay, eighteen sins and Mohniya Karmas All his these efforts made him "Vitraagi". Now his soul is in most pure state and far behind of any love or hate. If we try to give at least a single sin out of eighteen ,just see how difficult it is. Just try to give up love for body ordinary soul will fail at it miserably. With such background any brave soul who can do this  most difficult task will definitely be a Hero and a reason to worship for providing role model for devotees

Siddha Bhagwan.-No doubt achievements of Arihant Bhagwan are too great, In an imaginary concept it can be termed as 99%They have cleared soul related four "Ghati" Karma but as their life term is going on they have body related four "Aghati"Karma yet to be cleared. As a result they have not achieved the object of "Moksha" as they have yet physical presence .In this area "Siddha Bhagwan are real winner.

They have achieved the target and enjoying indefinite happiness and joy at "Siddhasheela". We worship them as we aim to achieve what they have achieved. May be too difficult but with "Jinwani's light it can be achieved. True knowledge ,character, faith will help for it. To be with all existing Siddah at top is our long cherished only dream.

Aacharya Bhgwan-We are fortunate to have them physically in our Bharatkhetra. They are the noble souls who knew all 32 Aagams and act exactly what has been laid down in "Aagam. They lead bunch of monks. To lead them and to motivate them constantly to follow the correct path of Mahaveerswami is not a simple job. It involves full care and constant observations while self walking on salvation path.

All the times, they remained aware of following five Mahavrata. It is Aacharyaji who are carrying torch of Bhagwan Mahveer at present.

Upadhayaji-They are the monks who have deep Knowledge of all 32 Aagams. As they have cut more layers of knowledge covering Karmas- they have a sharp grasping and intelligence level to know the secrets and reasons behind Bhagwan's teachings. They  perform the duty of explaining and spreading Jinwani to monk and Shrawaks.

Sadhuji Maharaj-.Just cutting all connections with outer domestic world a courageous soul takes Diksha and start his first step towards path of salvation. As a new joiner he is the junior most expected to follow his Mahavratas along with "Guru-Aadnya".Neither he can miss Aagam study and learning. Passage of time makes him perfect  and familiar with all routines .In the process he succeeded to cut off his past connections and concentrate on his "Sayam". while serving Gurudeo he achieves skill of explaining "Jinwani" to Shrawaks.

Kids the sacrifices, tolerances and control over organs of all these deities makes us to respect and worship them. You know in the end it is qualities and virtues of any soul that attracts us towards to them and not money, fame or personalities. Last 4 lines make us aware for sins and warns that without full clearance of all sins Moksha is never reached, Hope you will soon know them in more details and soon try join  holy circle by taking Diksha, which is only tool for salvation " Gurudeo concluded his lecture and offered kids has Manglik.

JAINISM---BEGINNING OF LIFE ---IN BHARATSKHETRA---------------------!!!.

Friends, here is a coverage for Guru Deo's lecture in a youth's camp held recently in city. The camp covered  age group 25 to 35 yrs. One youth with permission put his question" Sir, as per a popular beliefs God has created this universe. What is your comment for it and what Jainism theory for it. Gurudeo with his usual ease started answer for  the query. " Devanupriya, I don't generally comment on faith or other popular beliefs. I can ask a simple question. If you can answer it then you can have my comment. If God has created universe then who has created God ?. Such a creator if any must be a Super God. If He is so then worshipping a super God should be more preferable?. The youth expressed his inability to provide answer on it for Guru Deo. Then

Guru Deo continued. My reply is based" Jambudweepa Pranapti",It is an important "Aagam " of Jainism. For Jains God is a crystal clear soul in form of Siddha, Arihant and Kewali Bhagwan. Now turning to your second part to understand how life comes into existence one must know  how "Kaal- Chakra " of twenty Kodakodi Sagaropam operates. We know K.C. has two main sections. First is good-  going to bad and second one is bad turning to good (Avasarpini).As of now we are in first type's fifths era called as   " Dushma". Fifths and Sixth both era each one consist of 21000 years.Please check above image. Mahaveerswami has got Moksha in early period of beginning of this

fifth Aara. Jainism will last up to 21000 years after Bhagwan. 2550  years passed since Bhagwan's Nirvana. Means now after 18450 years this 5th phase will come to an end. After 21000 more years next last Sixth era will end. I have explained the end in a separate Blog read as end and black holes.. One important point to note that the universe is "Sayambhu".It means self made having no beginning nor any end. In Jain terminology it is called as "Anadi-Anant." It was there in the past ,it is now there and will be there for ever. When 6th Aara ends ,it

means of end of majority of living souls. Only 72 family will be able to survive facing high temperature and other natural calamities. They take shelters in holes of only existing two rivers and single mountain namely Ganga, Sindhu and Vetadyaa. Those family will act as "seed" provider to human race as given in Bhgwatiji "Nathure of 6th Aara". From 2023 after total 39450 years first section of Utsarpini will end. Then in reverse serial sixth Aara for second section of Avasarpini will start. First 21000 years will be very bad. New life will start to flourish in fifths Aara with 5 cloud raining heavily and continuously. Each cloud will rain for a 7 days. Change and names that will be caused are given as following  one to five serially numbered lines.

1.-Sawartak Megh-It will clear total hotness unholy nature of land.    2.-Skhir Megh----It will create good and holy taste, touch and color.  3.-Grut Megh-----It will create aliphatic element like butter in soil.    4.-Amurta Megh------The rain will cause life of plants start seeding.

5.-Ras Megh---- The rain will cultivate five types of juices in plants. Now the hidden men will come out of holes finding plants and fruits to eat and finding atmosphere cool and pleasant and start using it for food. It leads to end of bad and dark period of 6th Aara leading to the arrival of fifths Aara. Slowly many more lives begin to flourish. The

planet will have human ,birds, animals, vegetables and plants.In next 4th Aara  land will be gifted with twenty three Thirthankar Bhagwan. This is not a single cycle. Many more infinite cycles will follow in the same fashion. Souls who have cleared all positive and negative layers will be at "Siddha Sheela". Others will witness the cycles in any form of four Gati till they are free Hope it will clear your shady misconception and you will come closer to truth. Otherwise just give a thought if any God  can be so cruel to destroy self made people and

to allow mass killings in wars, floods, earthquakes, landslides and many more calamities. Just think. It is all due to our mishandling of nature and atmosphere by negligence. So don't get confused between nature and God. Nature is made of six Dravya as given in 25 Bol and

every thing is governed by set of rule as per science, physics and the  chemistry. Karma Pudgal and Nirjara govern living souls. More and  more Swadhya can clear all doubts"  Gurudeo concluded his lecture.
