Mahavir Janma Jayanti 2012
2611 years ago, the last Tirthankar of our current cycle, Mahavir Bhagwan, was born. His teachings have been instrumental in propagating the knowledge of Jainism in our time and forthcoming times to come. This year, Mahavir Jayanti falls on Wednesday 4th April. We will celebrate with a Panch Kalyanak Vidhaan Puja from Wednesday 4th – Sunday 8th April.
