Pranam and Jai Jinendra, We invite you to join us for a spiritually uplifting journey of introspection and self-purification as we celebrate Parvaadhiraj Paryushan Mahaparva and Das Lakshan Mahaparva — the crown jewels of Jain festivals — at JCNC. These sacred observances culminate in Samvatsari and Kshamavani, dedicated to forgiveness and self-reflection. They offer us a unique opportunity to cleanse our souls, shed accumulated karma, deepen our introspection, practice kshamapana (forgiveness), and engage in activities that promote spiritual growth and soul purification. To make these auspicious celebrations meaningful and accessible to everyone, JCNC has organized an array of religious programs and activities for our community. We warmly encourage you and your family to participate and take maximum Dharma Labh.
Please see the detailed program schedule below and plan your participation. |
