“Paryushan is the most important Jain festival dedicated to spiritual purification, where individuals pause worldly activities to focus inward through fasting, reflection, and forgiveness. It is observed to shed karmic impurities, cultivate compassion, and progress on the path of self-realisation and non-violence.”

Paryushan Pravachanmala 2024
Patrank 903: The True Practice of Dharma
Snatra Puja
Sacred Celebration of Purity and Devotion
The Sacred Ritual of Purification
Snatra Puja is not just a ritual but a sacred celebration of purity, devotion, and the awakening of divine virtues within. Through the symbolic bathing of the Tirthankar, we cleanse our own inner impurities, aspiring to embody their wisdom and compassion.
This ancient practice represents the washing away of karmic bondage and the purification of the soul. As we pour sacred water over the idol, we symbolically purify our thoughts, words, and actions, creating space for spiritual growth and enlightenment.
Join us in this transformative experience that connects us with the eternal teachings of the Tirthankars and guides us toward inner awakening and divine realization.
