Samavatsari Mahaparv... The king of Jain festival, it is the festival of forgiveness..
There are so many facets to these eight days. Fasts empower our mind, Bhakti induces new energy to worship lord with more zeal. Pratikraman enables us to rewind, rethink the deeds done, accept mistakes, ask for forgiveness and promise never to repeat them again. Pravachan gives an insight to the lives of tirthankars and reaffirms how jains should lead their lives.
The way of live, the habits to imbibe and teachings to follow; all not only have religious contentment but also scientific validation.
For example dining before sunset is the best way to keep body fit. Drinking boiled water, and fasting help detox. Various asanas during pratikaman are a yoga session in itself, dhyan helps develop the habit of silence thus facilitating meditation.. All in all this multi dimensional phenomenon enables a 360° purification of mind, body and soul.
Over and above all of this, the one aspect that I am not only fond of but also proud about is the act of forgiving all beings and asking for forgiveness from all beings..
This is not just any other ritual, it is a filter..
Karma is said to be the base of all our lives. Good or bad, right or wrong everything is a result of the choices we make and actions we take. What goes around definitely comes around therefore, there is no need to be over joyous in merry times and no use of being sorrowful during testing times..
I am of the view that owning up is equally significant. Everything that has happened, everything that is going on is a result of my deeds.
Most of quarrels, heartbreaks and disappointments crop up because we expect things from some other person. Simply acknowledging the fact that this particular event took place as a reward for my doing, solves the most complex of problems.
Im am happy because of me, I am in a mess because of me and I am out of it because of me is what we should practice telling ourselves every single day.
Eventually, we won't grunt for too long for failing and will start working towards getting better. This will detangle relations and infuse strength in bonds..
Evaluate yourself, healthify your body, empower your mind, elevate the class of your soul and enhance the quality of life..
CHEERS!!
GOD BLESS!!
