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 .

JAINISM---LEARNING POSITIVITY WITH JINWANI----------!!!.

Friends here is covering of next lecture in kid's series KYJ--- (Know Your Jinwani).Sharing it as I feel it can also be of use for senior also  " Dewanupriya you may have studied in your school opposite words in grammar. They are used to denote different nature and directions. such pairs of it can be like---- happiness/sorrow, good/bad, saint/evil construction/destruction, positive/negative so many examples can be quoted. In reality slowly and for you life will unfold actual and harsh

experience of both sets to most of us. Each, every experience will be creating a mark in your heart and memory for the resultant feeling. If one is being molded with "Jinwani" upbringing he can realize that there is more happiness in construction than destruction. Our  world is full of all two sets of people like good/bad ,saint/evil, Punya /sin. At no time in this world there will be a moment when only and only good things will be around every where. One may hate theft, killings,
rape or war but they will be always around. With such a background  the "Jinwani" aims to have majority of humans who believe in good values for life. As long as the balance is in favor of good Globe- will be feeling positive vibes. A Mahaveer can show light of Ahimsa to whole world while a Hitler can be there to kill masses As a student of Jinwani you will notice that saving  tiny life make you more happy.
Similarly if you try to forgive someone for his misbehavior his then attitude for you will change. A timely help to a close needy will be a life long positive memory for him. With your own feelings you can notice that there is more joy in giving's rather than snatching things. A so called intelligent chap by tactics of forgery and cheating makes a relative or banker to waive or write off his and his all companies' 
huge loan. Do you think the land of law or cheater's conscience mind will be allowing him or his successors to enjoy cheated funds ? Have a look at any of recent big scams in India either in share market or in banks. You will notice the results and agony. All contents of Jinwani are designed to see that you walk on a simple path saving lot of sins and show business. Naturally only birth in Jains cannot assure it.one need to have full faith on it and conduct accordingly by heart.18 sins
make you aware of it and staying away from it. Nine Punya motivate
you to part with sources and reduce possessions. Karma theory of it make you answerable for own actions and make you dependent. You give up asking mercy of some unseen superpower & start to believe in yourself and your human efforts. More and more you study Jain--
Aagams you can discover new concepts of soul, layer over the soul,
reasons for it and measures to cut those layers. You can know value of Pachkhan and staying away from 15 Karmadaan and 25 Mityatva. Once you grow you are free to study contributions of few people to welfare of masses. One example I was told in my childhood I share herewith. In west in the year 1955 Mr. Jonas Salk a doctor and good scientist modified earlier vaccinne methods and had successfully 
presented Polio vaccination. Surprisingly refused to get it patented. As a result he missed huge accumulation of wealth but gained smiles of countless kids and parents. On the other hand you will also find the people who pioneered world war first and second depriving much crores of people normal life. Believe me- Jainism will open gates of immense inner pleasures for all of you. You may not find it easy as you move forward in study. To clear such doubts you can approach any of us. Basically you need to develop observation skills to note
what is going around. Roses spreading fragrance, moonlight sharing coolness, Monsoon spreading lives. Similarly try to add beauty and comfort of Globe" Gurudeo concluded his lecture in KYJ series.

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.

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.

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.

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).

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.
