Mahavir Jayanti being celebrated across country today

Mahavir Jayanti, the birth anniversary of the 24th and last Jain Tirthankar Bhagwan Mahavir, is being celebrated across the country today. Mahavir Jayanti is considered to be one of the most auspicious day for the Jain community and holds a lot of importance in their religious life. Followers of Lord Mahavir celebrate this festival by chanting prayers, offering Prasad and participating in chariot processions.
 
More than a festival, it is a heartfelt tribute to a life devoted to compassion, self-restraint, and truth. In a world often clouded by conflict and chaos, Lord Mahavir’s eternal message of Ahimsa (non-violence), Satya (truth), and inner awakening shines brighter than ever, guiding countless souls toward a more mindful and harmonious existence.
