Sri Mahavir Jayanti honors the birth of Lord Mahavir — the 24th Tirthankara of Jainism — known for his teachings on non-violence, truth and self-discipline. Devotees gather for special prayers, bhajans and readings from Jain scriptures. The day is a time for reflection on compassion and spiritual purity. Through service and simplicity we celebrate Lord Mahavir’s enduring message of peace.
