The Chaturmas entry ceremony for the Thana-4 of Shraman Sangh Jain Divakari was grandly organized at Hiran Magri Sector 4 by the Chaturmas Organizing Committee and the Youth Association. The event was graced by eminent speakers such as Maha Sadhvi Dr. Shri Sanyam Lataji, Dr. Shri Amit Pragya Ji, Shri Kamal Pragya Ji, and Shri Saurabh Pragya Ji.
Thousands of devotees from across India participated in the auspicious ceremony, which resounded with chants of "Jai Nand" along the entire route. The procession was a visual treat, with the youth association marching in uniform and the girls' group forming a protective circle around them. Highlights included carrying the Jain flag, the women's group with sacred urns, and young children dressed in various traditional attires.
The grand procession began at 8:37 AM from the residence of Shri Narendra Chandaliya, making its way through main roads to Mahavir Bhavan in Sector 4, where it transformed into a religious assembly. As the revered gurus approached Mahavir Bhavan, the crowd's excitement was palpable. The atmosphere was electrified with enthusiastic cheers and chants.
Following various chants and mantras, the Chaturmas Committee Coordinator delivered a welcome speech, and the women’s groups, including the Suvidhi Women's Group, Navkar Bahu Group, and Shraman Sangh Women's Group, performed welcome songs. Addressing the assembly, Maha Sadhvi Sanyam Lata Ji emphasized the importance of Chaturmas for self-reflection and spiritual growth, describing it as a key that unlocks solutions to life's problems.
Sadhvi Amit Pragya Ji spoke about the journey from the soul to the supreme soul, from desire to worship, from indulgence to yoga, and from violence to non-violence. Sadhvi Kamal Pragya Ji and Sadhvi Saurabh Pragya Ji appealed to everyone to engage in religious activities, penance, prayer, and sermons through their melodious addresses.
The benefit of the first Shayyatar was granted by the diligent and generous outgoing National President of the All India Diwakar Organization, Shri Pannalal Ji Kothari, by providing Chaturmas permission.
