A compilation of all the accolades I have received from Revered Gurubhagvants, accomplished individuals and publications. I had never imagined this and I am grateful to Shasan Dev for giving me an opportunity to pen down "Prabhu Tamara Pagle Pagle"

✨The oldest literary reference to the illumination of diyas on Kartika Amavasya across all Indic religions comes from Śrī Kalpa Sūtra (Verse 128), following the Mahapari~nirvana of Bhagwan Mahavir Swami.

वज्र लेपन का कार्य चल रहा है ताकि यह प्रतिमा का पाषाण सदियों तक इसी तरह सुरक्षित और अखंडित रहे।

PM @narendramodi जी के स्वच्छ भारत मिशन के संकल्प के अनुरूप, हमारी स्पष्ट मांग है कि श्री शंखेश्वर तीर्थ में मणिभद्रवीर दादा की दीवार से सटे सार्वजनिक शौचालय को तत्काल हटाने के आदेश दें। @CMOGuj @revenuegujarat @SEOC_Gujarat @PMOIndia @sanghaviharsh
માનનીય મુખ્યમંત્રીશ્રી તથા નાયબ મુખ્યમંત્રીશ્રીને સાદર વિનંતી 🙏🏼
શ્રી શંખેશ્વરજી મહાતીર્થ વિશ્વભરના જૈનોની શ્રદ્ધાનું પવિત્ર કેન્દ્ર છે. આ મહાતીર્થની પવિત્રતા જાળવવી એ દરેક જૈનના આત્મસન્માન અને આત્મગૌરવ સાથે જોડાયેલી છે.
શ્રી માણિભદ્રવીર દાદાની દીવાલે, દેરાસરજીના વરંડા પાસે આવેલ જાહેર પેશાબખાનાને જરૂરી કાર્યવાહી કરી દૂર કરવામાં આવે તે માટે કૃપા કરીને સહયોગ કરશો તેવી નમ્ર વિનંતી. 🙏🏼

गुजरात हाई कोर्ट ने भरूच की जामा मस्जिद को लेकर नोटिस जारी किया है। मस्जिद के अंदर 19वें जैन तीर्थंकर भगवान मल्लिनाथ जी की मूर्ति मिलने के बाद अब ये मामला अदालत तक पहुंच गया है।
ये इतिहासिक 'अश्वबोध तीर्थ' है, जिस पर मुस्लिम समाज के लोगों ने अवैध रूप से क़ब्ज़ा किया था। अब पवित्र जैन तीर्थ को लेकर कानूनी लड़ाई शुरू हो चुकी है।

The wall of toilet is directly attached the Shankheshwsr tirth walls, which is a disrespect to the kshetra devta and the jain tirthankars .. We request @sanghaviharsh please allot nearby place for the public toilet @drmadiwr @ahmedabadmirror @OpIndia_com @SamastMahajan
Shankheshwar Jain Tirth jaise pavitra teerth ki wall par public toilet ka hona behad sharmnaak aur asweekarya hai! 🙏
Aakhir ab tak is public toilet ko hataya kyun nahi gaya❓
@CollectorPatan , kripya turant karwai karein aur is public toilet ko jald se jald hatwayen. Shankheshwar Tirth ki pavitrata aur dharmik garima ka samman bana rehna chahiye. 🙏🚩

An honour that humbles, a recognition that deepens my resolve.
Truly blessed to receive the Shasan Shikhar Navyuva Award from Shabdteerth Parivar today, in the divine nishra of Pravachan Shikhar Param Pujya Acharya Shri Mahabodhisurishwarji Maharaja and Param Pujya Shri Tirthpremvijayji Maharaja.
The award was graciously presented to me by Shri Lalit Gandhi, Chairman (Minister of State), JMDFC and National President of the All India Jain Minority Federation (AIJMF).
It is deeply humbling to see my small efforts in the fields of Jain research, Jain music and Jain literature being recognised. Whatever little I have been able to contribute to the preservation and propagation of our glorious Jinshasan is only through the grace of Shasan Dev, the blessings of Gurubhagwants, and the encouragement of those who continue to inspire this journey.
My heartfelt gratitude to Shasan Dev, the revered Gurubhagwants and the entire Shabdteerth Parivar for this affection and recognition. May this honour inspire me to do more, learn more, and serve the Jinshasan with greater sincerity, humility and dedication.

Prabhu Mahavir ki mahaanta sharir ki avastha mein nahi, balki raag-dwesh aur moh se mukt aatma mein thi.

15th Sept is jain's Samvatsari, most auspicious day of year.This year Deonar abattoir not observing holiday on Samvatsari is most disheartening. Every year abattoir close 2 days during paryushan.This time closed on Satday & Monday for Ganesh Chaturthi

Fresh controversy has erupted at sacred Sammed Shikharji as videos show confrontations between Jain pilgrims and tourists claiming the Jain shrine is a “Parshuram Temple”.
What begins with slogans and competing claims over a sacred site can eventually turn into a physical claim over the shrine itself.
The 2023 tourism row had already raised concerns over protecting the sanctity of this revered Jain pilgrimage centre.
