Arhat Touch is a modern Jain pathshala and personal-development programme. We strive to make the immortal wisdom of Bhagwan Mahavir accessible to the children of today.
The use of audio-visual technology, interactive games, and compelling creatives in the classroom makes learning an enjoyable experience. The children also take field trips to boost their learning.

Each level covers four aspects:

- Topics covered include Karma theory, Jiva vichar, Nav tattva, and more
- Mythology
- Draw inspiration from the hallowed lives of Tirthankar Bhagwans, sadhus, sadhvis, shravaks, and shravikas
- Rituals
- Gain insight into the underlying meanings behind rituals like Ashtaprakari puja, Chaityavandan, and Tirthyatra, and more, through detailed and rational explanations
- Learn to perform these rituals correctly and with reverence
- Internalise and not only memorise sutras, stutis, and other key compositions, through music and dance
- Self-Development
- Cultivate skills like leadership and teamwork that are key to long-term success

Testimonials
“Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch has been one of the pioneers in developing value education programmes. It has started a movement to drive value education amongst children, especially at a time when the values of an individual are fast deteriorating. The course material is very easy to understand, supported by heart-touching audio-visuals and workshops and well-trained trainers, which makes it very interesting. The children do not feel they are attending any classes. These children I’m sure will be the brand ambassadors of success with high morals for holistically developing millennials.”
CEO and Principal Officer, Aditya Birla Insurance Brokers Ltd., Mumbai, India
“I see many friends struggling to bring up their children with the right value system and I'm thankful to Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch for being moral parents of my children. In addition, Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch is the ‘behind-the-scenes’ force that binds our family as one happy unit. I am a proud Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch parent!”
Dentist specialised in Prosthodontics, Cosmetic Dentistry, General Dentistry and Minimally Invasive Dentistry, Mumbai, India
“Current educational systems, being exam-focused and seeing children as empty vessels to be filled with knowledge, do not encourage children to develop self-awareness and personal values. This is where Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch can help. A note on teacher values at Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch: It takes a skilful teacher to allow someone the space to develop their own values without influencing their choice.”
Director, Luminium Ltd., London, UK
“The ripple effects of Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch are far-reaching! The simple lessons of gratitude, humility, thankfulness, peace for all, equanimity, etc. have kept the children grounded.”
Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer, Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, USA
“In today’s ‘e-world’, ‘pre-occupied world’, ‘digital world’, ‘over-exposed world’, Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch is truly an oasis of quality values taught with warm affection. Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch has mastered the art of planting spiritual seeds in a joyous and creative way.”
CEO, New India Electricals Ltd., Bengaluru, India
“As an academic and career counsellor, I’ve come to realise first-hand the need for value-education in today’s youth. Our education system focuses primarily on competence and not on character; education is equal to a career, not contribution. There’s so much focus on skills that we don’t emphasise on shaping attitudes. We almost neglect values, and it is values that result in ethics and finally reflect in our deeds. Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch is a rare value-education program that fills an essential void in our learning infrastructure. The program is enjoyable, educational, and elevating.”
Education and Career Counsellor, Founder, Alok Shah Associates, Mumbai, India
“My daughter is a part of Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch and she loves it from the core of her heart. She has imbibed in her the art of giving and sharing and recently donated 12 inches of her hair to the cancer society. She is effectively learning soft skills like teamwork and the art of communication with the help of the didis at Shrimad Rajchandra Divinetouch. I see my daughter as a compassionate, courageous, responsible, secure and confident child. Thank you for all your hard work.”
Gynaecologist, Obstetrician, Laparoscopist Surgeon and Infertility Specialist, Mumbai, India
“I saw the work being done by the Magictouch people. Really impressive! The value that comes immediately to my mind when I talk about Indian values is universal brotherhood. That’s being taught. And I loved this programme ... I mean, I can see that it is a Jain organisation, but we had Lord Buddha there; we had Lord Krishna there; we had Prahlad there ... it’s universal brotherhood! That is what must be taught.”
Principal, Green Lawns High School
“I think Magictouch is a process and it is a process that should come into all our schools and all our lives and I am really honoured to have been part of the process today.”
Former Principal, Bombay International School
“Born and brought up in England, I never had answers about why we do and don’t do the things we were told to follow as a Jain. My son goes to Arhat Touch, and has clear answers about why he performs puja every morning, why he puts a tilak on his forehead at the derasar, why he doesn’t eat greens during Paryushan, why he offers khamasana … I learn from him! And his knowledge enables him to do all of this with utmost connection. Arhat Touch is beautifully designed to give this curious generation a reason to continue following Jain principles.”
