JAINISM-6 TEST TO CHECK "SAMYAG-DYAN-!.

Friends here is summary of Gurudeo's lecture delivered in kid camp. "Aho Bhagyashali kids- today let us discuss more about Samkit. You  all know 3 parts of it. They are Samyag- Dyan, Darshan & Charitrya

When our conduct and thinking matches "Jinwani are we termed as Samkit soul. Here let me give you six test to check if your Jainism's knowledge is correct ? We all know knowledge in infinite. Unknown knowledge is much more than known knowledge, A layman knows few things about a subject. Expert knew few additional things about it. Kewal- Dhayn knows each and everything about it. For reaching to "Kewali" status Samkit is a basic requirement. It is based on faith on" Jinwani" being told by all 24 Thirthankar Bhagwan. Now let us study our knowledge if matches following 6 basic Jainism principles.

With growing age, reading ,hearing meeting different types of people your concepts are bound to change. In any circumstances your mind should not accept a minor deviation in following accepted principles. 1.-Soul is in existence for all of 3 periods. It is different than body.

2.-Soul is immortal while body is in existent till current life exists.    

3.-Soul is a sole doer of all actions. Soul attracts and deletes Karmas. 4.-Soul is solely responsible to face Karmas and severity as they rise.

5.-There is liberation for Bhavi souls. Soul can win over all Karmas.  6.-There is way to get Moksh with Dyan, Darshan, Tap & Charitrya.

You can note short form for them (Shashwat, Avinashi, Karta for all Karma, Bhokta for all Karma, Moksha Hai, Moksha Ka Upaay Hai).

As you grow you may come across good orators from all other faiths. Social media platforms, internet, literature may throw new ideas for you. All of these should not be able to change your basic concept for soul and it's salvation. Then and then only your Samkit will be kept as intact. Early salvation is solely dependent on pure "Samkit".Hence

you must be extra cautious to protect it. As a Jain devotee you must be as cautious to protect Samkit as nature cares for pearl or mother care for her kid. A slight doubt can prolong your salvation. In coming future mind well religion will be used as major tool to  gain for petty politics and vote bank. In such odds we must be alert. Hopefully you will note it permanently ". In Jain terminology "Ratna-Trayee" is a very powerful word. It is used as to denotes all three components of Samkit in a single word. They are Dyan, Dahrshan and Charitrya. Hopefully you will  take cate to protect it fully" Gurudeo concluded.

JAINISM---WISELY USING HUMAN LIFE------!!!.

Friends here is coverage of senior citizen's session by Gurudeo.  "Dharmapremi Bhandu certainly we all are at this stage where looking back can bring better results for our residual life. In the third chapter of Uttaradhayan Sutra "Chaturangiya" Mahaveer Bhagwan has explained four most difficult things to get. The first among them is birth to take in "Manushya Bhav".Thus human life is too precious.  Rest three are hearing Jinwani, Faith on it and Purushartha in Sayam.

We all know "Moksha is possible only through "Manushya Bhav. Devata may have more apparent comforts, luxury, richness and all pleasantness in heavens. But even such powerful souls cannot go to Moksha directly. They have to take birth as human then only they can achieve it provided all good and bad Karmas are being cleared.

Gods offer respect to "Dharmik Shravaks" asper Dushvekaliksutra.

After  numerous travel through four Gatis consuming greater time lastly we get this human life. It definitely not be wasted at any cost.

Human life is possible after numerous cycles of birth and death in 84 millions birthplaces. It cover life from Nigod to Asunnipanchedriya. Nigod souls with numerous lives accumulate "Punayee" by actions known as "Akaam Nirjara".It is their control over hunger, thirst and tolerating all sufferings of heat, rain and cold. With so many passing

years get addition of more sense in serial- taste, smell, eye, and ear.

At last one by great fortune get life as Human. If his "Good Deeds"  accumulated balance is extra ordinary he gets Jain religion, Suguru and good surroundings .I feel you all lucky enough to get all of this. Now next question is topic of our lecture. Even after getting such a noble background how you are using it. Are you using it to maximize

your Nirjara and addition to" Punyaee ? Or running after wealth and all "Mohniya Karmas" ?.If you are using this life term to build your empire ,factories ,name and fame then you are loosing track of your priorities. It is just like a prince using diamonds and gems to play the marbles. A glass of cane juice can quench your thirst if drank, If you utilize it for taking bath then you are wasting time and opportunity.

Just engage into "Dyan" and review your active life. It may be a time to say no to all this and delegate powers to younger generation and devote more and more time for religious activities and cleaning of soul. Think of retiring from commercial activities. Mind well no one is indispensable. It is your wrong belief that only you can do justice

to business. Your soul is too powerful. If you use full "Purushartha" to get maximum out of it then your main purpose of making human life is successful will be attained. It cannot be never wise to run after things which you cannot carry on with you while leaving from here.

What you can take away is only a Karman Shaarir full of good deeds along with Tejas Sharir. Be careful  "Gurudeo concluded  lecture.

SUMMARY OF JINWANI-NAVKAR MANTRA--!!!.

 Friends, on Guru Deo's advice organizers were keen on updating of kids Jainism knowledge. As a visionary Gurudeo advocated it's need as there will be more challenges to Jainism faith in near future from outside as well as inside. A sound foundation of kids with basics of Jainism is a must for it. Keeping it in mind a lecture of Gurudeo was organized on Sunday. Here is a coverage of it. Hope kids, young and elders all Jain will also find this lecture valuable and motivational.

 "Dear kids, I appreciate sacrifice of Sunday by your parents to bring all of you here. I am sure at the end you will feel being blessed for it. Today's subject is based on Navkar Mantra. By this time you all have learnt it with meaning. Many of you might be knowing reasons why it is regarded as most holy, pure, and auspicious Maha- Mantra of universe. Mantra is based on three most admired virtues of Jain

religion. They are Samyag (correct)- Dhayn, Darshan and Charitrya.

Correct faith gives us power to select right religion which can lead to salvation. Correct knowledge make sure right practices adopted for leaving life with minimum sins and simplicity. Correct Charitrya can

ensures cutting off accumulated negative Karmas with Sayami life. It also prohibits new sins coming in. We know Sayam is a control over five organs and mind, speech and body. First Pada is a bowing down to soul who conquered all body related evils termed as Ari ,winner is being Arihant Bhagwan. It shows us how important is to make soul free of four Kashay and eighteen sins. Equally important is to stay away from25 wrong faith Mittyatva and five Kaam- Bhoga. They are

major obstacle in Sayam Marg and last goal of Moksha or salvation  

These internal enemies are more dangerous than  external enemies.

As a reward to clear over body related negatives souls gets the Regal status of "Arihant and Kewali". In next stage when body related evils

are got over- salvation path get accomplished with the "Sidha -Gati". With Siddha status there is an end to body and birth related sorrows. Soul get rid of vicious circle of life, death and again next many more births.  Aacharya Bhagwant and Sadhuji both are symbol for correct character. While "Upadhyaaji are symbol for correct true knowledge.

They study thirty two  Aagam and explain to devotees. Correct faith

is a common virtue of all of these5 deities. We can trace origination of Navkar Mntra with " Bhagwati Sutra" It's starting Pada is Navkar.

It opens with title as "Mangal Charan". Nine lines with 68 alphabets give a summary of road leading to salvation or Moksha. You can see Pratikaman book to get 108 virtues and absence of 18 flaws of all the

five deities being---- 12+08+36+25+27=108 A+S+A+U+S. All these 108 virtues are the final result of "Sayami" life lived as per Jinwani. As you will grow you can study at more depth the sacrifices all these noble souls made so as to their name got included in Navkar Mantra

 This flow of Jinwani from Thirthankar and Gandhar Bhagwan has a unique power to fill our soul with holy inner peace and appreciation, 

Wish for the future golden day which will make you too fortunate to get into "Panch Parmesthi" category" Gurudeo concluded lecture.

JAINISM---ESO PANCH NAMUKKARO--BOWING DOWN TO PANCH PARMESTHI------------------!!!.

On his move to next destination Gurudeo has a stop at our suburb. I share herewith his lecture based on Jain Navkar Maha Mantra. Hope

readers will add it to knowledge of most auspicious Navkarmantra.    "Devanupriya You all are reciting this holy Mantra. Majority must be knowing it's meaning. Today I will share with you the importance of last two lines. Have you ever given a thought why it is so powerful

and capable to clear all sins and highest auspicious in the universe -?.

In domestic life we bow down to Parents and Teachers as a mark of our respect, gratitude ,affection and with a feeling of obligation for their role in shaping lives. To bow down to others need 3 conditions.

1-A particular soul need to have correct knowledge of virtues which call for bowing down. Such souls must be capable to appreciate the sacrifice ,devotion and courage for such noble souls. It can be done only by souls who knew own limitations and difficulties to engage own self in such Moksha marg. It comes from Swadhaya of Aagam.

Humbleness quality is the result of deep study and thought process. 

2.--This particular soul needs to have faith on teachings of Jinwani.

correct faith make soul to visualize real virtues in their true sense.

3.--Such souls needs to be light hearted who don't has any attitude or arrogance to recognize the achievements of soul who attained unique salvation or who are walking on path of salvation by taking a Diksha. A humble soul can only worship virtue of others rather than glittering status or glory. A soul who knew the fallacy of life and wealth can be only able to do such worshipping of virtues. Rest are after power and greed to please people having material things and power for benefits. An arrogant soul cannot recognize any one else than himself. As of  it's result there is no bowing down from such heavy weight soul. He, Himself is a king and refuse to look beyond himself and  his circle. 

When one recite Navkar Mantra-his heart is filled with feelings that oh-! how difficult path of "Sayam.Diksha and Moksha- I with a deep feelings appreciate their noble achievements. I knew from my own example how difficult is to win over inner enemies. How difficult is leaving home and family for Nirjara of Karma. To understand all 32

Aagam  and able to explain them is not a easy task. Souls who have cut off the Dyanavarniya Karma can only do it. Hope keeping you as role model one day in near future I will be able to attain salvation. There are three type of bowing down. Jaghanya means "Mathenam Vadami". It is a short form of Vanadana. It is  used to practice when

 Sadhuji in eyesight outside residing place. "Tikkuto Path"- when in Stanak or upashraya. Lastly for Arihant and Siddha Bhagwan with

two Khamasano one for each. Bowing down to Panch- Parmesthi prevent Aayushya Bandh of a soul in  a lower classes. We all are too fortunate to have this Mahamantra as our legacy gifted by Bhagwan Mahaveer Swami to us Carry it on and on with the feelings I could explain today " Gurudeo concluded his lucid lecture.

JAINISM-COMPLETION- CHATURMAS-2023--!!!.

 Friends, today being Kartik Sudi Poornima it ensures completion of this Chaturmas. All Jain Sadhuji and Satiyaji will resume" Vihar" on

"Ekam" after sunrise. I share today's lecture of Gurudeo here for you.

"Devanupriya the holy period will end today after "Pratikaman". As per Bhagwan's order we will walk for a new destination. This period might have added much Nirjara and Punya to all of devotees. After our departure you need to carry it on forever daily. Sadhuji may not be here physically  but "Jinwani" throgh 32 Aagams will be with you In brief I will advise following two lines message as reminder to all.

 A layman rush to remember almighty in distress hours. On the other hand a true devotee never forgets him regardless of circumstances. Chaturmas or No Chaturmas a true Jain Shrawak must keep regular Samaik, Pratikaman fast Swadhay to all possible extent. Engagement in religious act with full faith can be our only savior in this life. Our mission is discovery of own soul. Power to look within ourselves can only be available by following guidance of Our Thirthankar and our

full devotion and knowing "Jinwani of Thirthankar Mahaveerswami. Chaturmas is a medium to sow seeds of Jainism in kids and youths.

One can gain real fruits only by continuation on  this learning path.I hope you all by now came to know the valuable contribution Jinwani add to our lives, It establishes a much needed positive inner peace in ourselves. I need not to comment on numerous challenges you face while leading a daily routine life. All of such struggle can be cooled off if you spare few hours for soul and path Bhagwan showed to us.I seek your forgiveness for any wrongs done by us during this entire period of four months. More than prescribed stay can fuel Mohniya Karma so Bhagwan ordered moving of monk to another destination.

As  per a saying flowing water keeps itself clean compared to water in pond."Bahta Pani-Nirmala" We take your leave with all the best wishes for your advancement on path of salvation. This departure is a temporary disconnection .Soon you will have new arrival of Jain Sadhuji and Satiyaji. Hopefully with their able teachings all of you

will carry on the mission to it's fullest .I invite your attention to 12th  Dharma Bhavna. It covers basic s in a summary form.It reads as

" Dharma Karat Sansar Sukh, Dharma Karat Nirvaan---!!!              Dharma Path Sadhe Bina, Nar Tiryanch Saman---------!!!.

With this quote Gurudeo  concluded his. Masses were full of tears.

JAINISM-PUNAYEE- LEAKAGES CHECKING--!!!.

Friends here is summary of Guru Deo's lecture. Hopefully it will act a eye opener for all of us desiring for early salvation and getting Moksha " We all know "Punayee" amount to our good deeds done voluntarily. Jainism informs nine ways for it. Punayee ensures good opportunities for doing religious and all good activities. Here I have

explained earlier that- it is different than "Nirjara" Nirjara cut layers of Karmas. It is possible by control over five organs and mind and leading a "Sayami" life. Now as of any wealth or asset one need to care for minimum use of this positive balance. One is free to use his Punyaee" as of his own choice. On use "Punayee" gets reduced from all corners of soul. For example, husband or spouse expect to get him served by either or kids other than in abnormal circumstances. Such act reduces the balance of soul getting served. Jain culture advocate "Aatma- Nirbhar" or self-reliance practice. If you study life of true

monk-he always do own job himself keeping free to maximum serve "Sthavir Sant"(old or ill monks). One may recall a visit by beggar  He not only comes for begging but comes to offer his own example to us. From his example he demonstrates that he failed to accumulate Punayee and exhausted whatever he could in a too hasty manner. It landed him in today's state. If one reduces his expectations and asking for help-it can be a temporary hard ship but can have hidden good results. Finding own solutions to all domestic problems shape our personality in a visionary and matured one. Appointing various domestic helper can give one a health issues with no burning of own calories adding to his weight. We all know types of nine Punya. Out of  all 9 Punya last 4 Punya do not need resources, As such by good thinking of mind, soft and pleasant speech, services of old and ill

people, respecting souls having correct Jainism faith and knowledge can accumulate Punya for it. Just imagine how in desert areas like Rajasthan people use each drop of water wisely likewise one need to use Punayee balance very conservative manner. Punyaee do not help us directly to get to Moksha. But it can definitely prepare for us a good ground to aim for salvation. Birth in a civilized class ,getting good Guru to understand Jainism, good intellectual level to read all 32 Aagams, good memories of it ,better domestic circumstances to

get engaged into religious practices, same thinking friends all are hidden blessings of Punyaee. Using minimum comforts tools and all luxury material can add to our Punayee. A small leakage can empty the water pot in no time. Same is a case with Punayee hardly earned Hopefully all of you got the message from my Lecture" Gurudeo concluded his one of remarkable and beautifully narrated  lecture.
