Shree Bhagwati Diksha MahotsavAatma Yatra

About the mahotsav

In a world that measures a life by what you gather, diksha is the choice to put it all down.

Diksha is the Jain vow of renunciation. But beyond that, it is the choice of self-command, a choice of winning over the self. A quest to seek the true purpose of life.

This is the meaning of Aatma Yatra, the journey inward. In sanidhya of Param Namramuni Gurudev, young mumukshus are ready to begin this blessed journey.

The decision of Diksha is not impulsive, rather, a well thought-through decision that comes after deep introspection and inner conviction.

Diksha Patrika Alekhan & Swastik Vidhi

Three young souls. One extraordinary journey from worldly attachments to eternal liberation.

In the divine presence of Rashtrasant Param Namramuni Gurudev, the Jain Diksha Mahotsav began with the sacred Diksha Patrika Alekhan and Swastik Vidhi.

With hearts full of devotion, Mumukshu Yashvi didi Mehta, Jaanvi didi Shah and Tanmaya didi Rajput took their first auspicious steps towards a life of Saiyam.

A beautiful celebration of courage, surrender and the blessings of the Guru, as three young souls prepare to dedicate their lives to self-mastery and the welfare of all living beings.
