जैन समुदाय को धार्मिक अल्पसंख्यक घोषित करने की मांग

श्री जैन श्वेताम्बर खरतर गच्छ संघ, जयपुर ने राजस्थान में जैन समुदाय को धार्मिक अल्पसंख्यक घोषित करने की मांग की है . जैन समुदाय संख्या की दृष्टि से अत्यंत अल्पसंख्यक है . सरकारी आंकड़ों के अनुसार इस समुदाय की जन संख्या देश की जनसँख्या के एक प्रतिशत से भी कम है। आश्चर्य जनक तथ्य ये है की इतनी अल्प संख्या में होने के वाबजूद जैन समुदाय को केंद्र सरकार द्वारा धार्मिक अल्पसंख्यक घोषित नहीं किया गया है.

कुछ राज्यों जैसे महाराष्ट्र, उड़ीसा, उत्तर प्रदेश, मध्य प्रदेश, बिहार आदि ने जैनों को अल्पसंख्यक समुदाय का दर्ज़ा दिया है परन्तु राजस्थान सरकार ने अभी तक ऐसा नहीं किया। कुछ  वर्षों पूर्व ऐसी घोषणा होने के कगार पर पहुच गई थी परन्तु कुछ कारणों से क्रियान्वित नहीं हो पाई।

श्री जैन श्वेताम्बर खरतर गच्छ संघ, जयपुर ने इस विषय में पुनः पहल करते हुए राजस्थान के मुख्य मंत्री श्री अशोक गहलोत को एक ज्ञापन सौपा है जिसकी प्रतिलिपि माननीय राज्यपाल महोदया, नेता प्रतिपक्ष एवं अल्पसंख्यक आयोग के अध्यक्ष को भी दी गई है। धार्मिक अल्पसंख्यक घोषित होने पर जैन समाज की धार्मिक एवं सामाजिक संस्थाओं को विशेष लाभ होगा। साथ ही जैन समुदाय के व्यक्तियों को व्यक्तिगत लाभ भी मिल सकेगा।

अब तक अल्पसंख्यक समुदाय को मिलनेवाले सभी लाभ  मुस्लिम, सिख,  इसाई, वौद्ध एवं पारसी समुदाय को ही मिलता रहा है। जैन समुदाय को विशेष प्रयत्न कर यह दर्ज़ा हासिल करना चाहिए जिससे उपरोक्त  संवैधानिक अधिकार जैन समुदाय को भी मिल सके.

Joint Chaturmas of Swetambar and Digambar Jain saints expected

Both Digambar and Shwetambar Jain societies in Jaipur are trying to have a combined Chaturmas.

Great Jain orator saints Lalitprabh Sagar and Chandraprabh Sagar have agreed to observe their Chaturmas 2013 in Jaipur organized by Sri Jain Shwetambar Khartar Gachchh Sangh. Similarly 

 Digambar Jain Muni Tarunsagar has also been observing his Chaturmas in Jaipur.
\\
Manak Kala, convener, Tarunsagar Chaturmas Samiti and Jyoti Kothari Secretary, Khartar Gachchh Sangh met Muni Tarunsagar at Ajmer yesterday to discuss joint Pravachan of both Digambar and Swetambar Jain saints. Swetambar Jain monks Lalitprabh Sagar and Chandraprabh Sagar are also in favor.

Discussion with Muni Tarunsagar yielded a positive outlook and both the Sangh in Jaipur are working on unity. We are hopeful of a historic Chaturmas in Jaipur where both Swetambar and Digambar saints will sit in an united platform. All of these saints are capable of attracting huge crowd even in their individual capacity. Thousands of people used to hear them wherever they speak. They attract crowd from Jain and non-Jain communities breaking barriers of cast, creed and religions.

We can just imagine, what can be happened when all these three orators will sit together. There is a vast Jain population (Swetambar and Digambar both) in Jaipur. This Jain population amalgamated with other communities will create very large audience. We can hope for more than 25,000 spectators in the sermons between July 21 to September 1 at Dashara Maidan, Adarshnagar area in Jaipur.

All necessary permissions from the administration is already taken. Khartar Gachchh sangh is all set to arrange these speeches. All of you are cordially invited.

Smt Vimaladevi Bohra expired

In a sad incident Smt Vimaladevi Bohra, wife of Sri Dulichand Bohra expired today evening. Her death is a blow to entire Jain community especially Khartar Gachchh Sangh. She was very religious and spent most of her time in religious activities. She had taken several vows and observed those meticulously. She had many "Tapasya" in her account. She was  suffering from several diseases since last couple of years and it was difficult for her to maintain her daily religious rituals. However, she tried to maintain all these as much as she could.

She had got religiousness from her childhood. It was further enhanced after her marriage with Sri Dulichand Bohra, who is also very religious. Both of their sons are active in Jain society. Ashok Bohra, eldest son, was in the executive committee of Sri Jain Shwetambar Khartar Gachchh Sangh, Jaipur. Rajendra Bohra, younger son, is joint secretary of the said Sangh presently.

Funeral procession of late Smt Vimaladevi Bohra will start tomorrow from her residence at Dada, Gheewalon Ka rasta, Johri Bazar at 8.30 AM, June 1, 2013 to reach burning ghat at Adarshnagar.

We pray for her. May heaven bless her with peace and harmony!
