JAINISM----BUILDING "THIRTHANKAR NAAM KARMA------!!!.--PART-1.

Friends all of eight Karmas lay foundation of our next life. It is being affirmed by Bhagwan Mahaveer in Bhagwatiji. Out of 148  different Karma Prakrurti 93 sections are of "Naam Karma. A soul's personality is being decided by it. To become "Kewali" is a distant dream of all of Jain devotees. On top of it if one can build the unique "Thirthankar" Naam Karma it can be soul's rarest of it's achievement

then nothing in the universe can match this. Both these status possess "Kewaldyan and Kewaldarchan. Thirthankar Bhagwan got additional chance to form "Thirth" with four pillars. It is too unique position to be in only 24 Thirthankar in a single Aara in Bharat and Eirawat and 160 or 170 in all Dhaidwipa. Jain Aagams set out 20 tool to build it.

We will study them briefly in this Blog. Let us see if we can practice 1- Following orders ,Chitan and Puja of virtues ofArihant Bhagwan.  Navkar, Loggas, Namostunam and Puchisunam are best for praise. 2.-Praising Siddha Bhagwan and Dyan ,Chintain for their virtues.

3.-Keeping constant touch with Jinwani in form of 32.Aagams.          4.-Respect,Bhakti and Sewa of Gurudeo caring for their Gochari.

5.-Respecting 3 types of Sadhuji- Jaati, Shrut and Prawajya Swatvir.

6.-Respecting Sadhuji who are "Bahushrut" with expert knowledge.

7.-Bhakti of "Tapasvi" Sant and Satiyaji.                                              8.-Constant study of Jinwani and Aagam Dyan.                                    9.-Following "Samkit" with minute details from bottom of heart.        10.-Offering respect politeness to souls with Ratnya Tray Samkit.      11-Doing" Pratikaman" both time with relevant sentiments feelings.   We will study balance tools from 12 to 20 in next Blog.

JAINISM------ADYNAN AND KEWALDYAN-----!!!.

In first lecture of  current Chaturmas by Gurudeo two lines made me to think and express it through this Blog. He said irrespective of---- what we believe level of current  human knowledge is too low. It is

just as a drop of water in beak of a sparrow. While" Kewaldyan " is capable to know each and every minute details of living or non living covering all of the three period. As such Kewaldyan is a tool of hope

for who are anxious to know mystery of  human lives and existence. I have no doubt about both of his these two statements. I just started to chalk out things we do not know and wish to know, While giving it a thought, I felt ashamed for limitation of knowledge, If I exclude from it my superficial knowledge obtained through study of Jainism -then the result are too poor. Souls in Maha-Vidheha Khetra are too fortunate and luckyto have always opportunity to obtain Kewaldyan. 

We in Bharat and Eirawat get such chances only in third and fourth

Aaras .I just though to list out things I wish to know. In general we as human are so preoccupied with our routine duties and activities few of us can be able to give it a thought. Looking back to my point I am trilled with mysteries of galaxies and universe. The never ending sky deep oceans and seas .mountains, snow clad mountains, forests.

deserts. I wish to know about biggest surprise sun ,moon and stars.

Rains, clouds rainbows, volcano ,earthquake also rose my curiosity to know. A small ant, colors of peacock and butterfly, the cuckoo's voice. all birds and animal together with beautiful roses continue to carry on my anxiety. Miracles of human body power of seed to turn into huge tree all are so fascinating Overall great mystery behind all life and death, difference in IQ levels of human I wish I could know. 

Mahaveerswami assured salvation to all Bhavi souls. Moksha can be possible only after getting Kewaldyan and Kewaldarshan. As such as Gurudeo said there is hope let us wait for the golden day for all of us when we can be blessed with the unique treasure of Kewaldyan. For

it no doubt the road is difficult and hard. It needs absolute faith on Jinwani, Dikha, fast Nirjara and Sayam. Let us all aim and do it.

JAINISM-----HOLY CHATURMAS-----2024----!!!.

The great period which assist us to accumulate Punya and cut off the bad Karmas is arriving . Here's the timetable for Jain Chaturmas 2024. 1- Holy Chaturmas starts on --20/07/2024 to 15-11-2024. This table is for Stankaswasi. Please adjust as per own branch.).

1.-Paryushan starts on 01/09/2024 ends on  day 08-09-2024

2.-Sawastari falls due on Paryurshan end day being 08/09/2024 

3.-Mahaveer Bhagwan Nirwan day and Dipwali due on 01/11/2024. Shrawaks can plan so many things to do and learn, Even main aim can be to impart basic Jainism knowledge to Jain kids to ensure a strong foundation for them. Learning Samaik, Pratikaman, Puchisunam and .taking various Pachkhans reading 32 Aagams can

be planned. Getting Jainism "Sankars "to kids can ensure sin free future life for them. It can help all of them to shape up Conscience or "Vivek" which can prevent them from entry to sins world. In eight days of "Paryusan Parva" one need not to miss "Antagarhasutra"

the stories of 90 noble souls who attamed Moksha. There you will meet Gajsukumal ji, Arjun Mali, Shrikrishna and Evantakumar. At the same time Fast, Aalochana. Pratikaman and Khamatkhamna on day of "Sawastari is must for every Jain Bhagwan has underlined the

relation of Sawastari day and "Aayushya-Bandha" chances for next life. All of these four months offer maximum opportunity of Karma Nirjara and Sanwar for our soul. Wish all of us shall use it wisely. One can also offer his services for wellbeing of Sant and Satiyaji who are residing in their area together with devotees for Darshan. All such deeds are tools of Dharma -Prabhavana and  great Punya.Four months gives us a chance to make our Samkit---- pure and strong by Dhrma-Shrawan with attending Gurudeo's lecture at a location of our

choice.We all knew Samkit is a precondition for getting salvation. To check degree of Samkit one need to make  a self review whenever possible. Just ask self--  If my fear for sins and Mittyatva reduced ? -If my faith in Arihant and Siddha Bhagwan has shaken as they do not offer me domestic help and material pleasure ?If my faith started to bend toward other God and so called semi God or saints. With  such constant review of self conduct during Chaturmas we all can restore our Samkit if shaken anyway. Chaturmas help for such correction.

JAINISM---VARSHI-TAP---ANUMODANA----!!!.

 Friends' tomorrow will be marked as "Akshay-Tritiya". It is a most auspicious day for Jains. Lacs of Jain devotees will be--- completing their alternate day Varshitap fast of Vaas, Aayabil or Ekasan. The day

"Vaishak Sudi Trutiya carry a significant importance. On the same day our first  "Thirthankar Bhagwan Rishabh Deo" has done his first "Parna" with cane juice offered by grandson "Shreyansh Kumarji".

To respect his great Tap and offer "Anumodana" for his unique and noble deed. A huge gathering for "Parna" of Tapasviji and their well-wishers can be seen at " Palitana" and other holy places of worship. "Anumodana" is a unique way to support the Tap. It implies that- I appreciate from my the bottom of heart your Tap . Certainly, it is as

per guidance of Bhagwan and certainly will cut your Karmas and put you on fast track of Mokha. I wish-- I could gather courage like you and can able to win over my Rasnendriy to do similar tap in the near future. In 12 tools of "Nirjara" fast is a most powerful and effective

tool. It can burn major misdeeds as fire burns bundles of-- dry grass. Tap help us to shed our body related affection and love. It also shows us that soul with its determination can give up food. drinks and--- all other material pleasure tools considered to be unavoidable. It helps to

establish that soul is a real master. With good Guru Vachan it can be motivated to undertake most difficult Tap as those Varshitaps. To go for Pachkhan of Varshitap needs a strong willpower. Full 13 months following diet regulations for all alternate days is not a simple task.

Only souls who have cut substantial layers of Charitrya-- Mohniya

Karma can dare and do such vigorous Tap.  It can be undertaken only by brave souls. At least we can offer all such souls a big and heartfelt Anumodana. Please join me for our most needed religious duty. Say Anumodana--Anumodana Barmabar-------Anumodana--Barmbar-!!!.

JAINISM-" AHO DANAM--SUPATRA--DAAN--"-!

 Friends for any Jain devotee charity is a familiar duty. Here is a summary of Guru Deo's lecture on it which provide more details for.  'Devanupriya you all are mostly aware with nine causes of Punya. Here I would like to share with you a small charity which helped the

donor to build "Thirthankar Gotra". The incident is from-- Bhagwan Mahaveer Swami's life. Goshalak used-- "Tejoleshaya" to burn Lord  Mahveer. It was too powerful to burn 16 countries. Bhagwan faced it in a most cooled manner. It caused Bhagwan heavy internal burning. To cool it as per Bhagwan's advice Sinha Angar got the "Bijorapaak"

medicine from Rewati Shrawika. With this "Supatra Daan" the lady built "Thirthankar" Gotra. One can refer 15/01 Shatak of Bhagwatiji. Second story of Supatra Dan is of Puj Rishabhdeo Bhagwan our first Thirthkar. He had fast of 6 months. With aim to have Parna-- he went for Gochari. Masses were not used for eligible Gochari. They offered him gold, diamond etc. As a result, for next 6 months Bhagwan could not get Gochari. Lastly on day of Vaishakshukla Tritiya called 

Akshay Trutiya Bhagwan arrived at kingdom of grandson Somyash being Hastinapur. Prince Shreyanshkumar offered him Ekshuras. Bhagwan took it and done Parna to end his long fast. With this background let us see present available options herewith- In first place it can be to Jain Monks, 2nd option can be for society. All of you know Jain monks do not have home or kitchen. They go to home to home for Gochari. Bhagwan has explained serial importance of Gochari to them as per simplicity-----1-Food is easier to get in states.

which are vegetarian.2.-Comapratively water is difficult as monks takes only boiled or ash mixed water.3-Staying place, clothes ,need based medicines as in cities extra living spaces are too rare secondly monk cannot buy medicines or clothes.4-Most difficult is to get son or girls as Bhiksha with permission to become monk to carry out the legacy of Bhagwan Mahaveer.5.-Last one is "Abhigraha Gochari". In

second part charity can be for society for good causes, to name a few, ----it can be for mass welfare such as religious, health and education.

One may arrange to make arrangements for Chaturmas of Jain monk, or one can take responsibility to run Mahaveer school or Gurukul. A

stall for drinking water to public Goshala for cattle. Vihar Bhavan or Chowihar houses, pigeon shelters all are examples of good charity. A charity can be a Supatra Daan when the donee uses it with which the

intentions donors have offered it. It means charity for most deserving purpose. By grace of destiny majority of Jain community has a good disposable surplus for charity. As charity is a tool to reduce Parigraha we must think of suitable options for it "Gurudeo concluded lecture.
