Live and let other live is the culture of India. All the religions also endorse the same view. Tirthankar Mahavir Swami has further mentioned in his teaching to take care of animals and birds also. It is the duty of every human being to at least serve water to animals and birds in hot summer. This is not just a work of Ahimsa or Jivdaya, it is required for environmental balance too.

Jain Youth Foundation (JYF) Members had gone to Jain Aacharya Ratna Sunder Suriji for blessings, when he suggested to plan for a Professional Summit.

The date decided was 2nd October on the eve of Gandhi Jayanti and the Concept was 5 pillars of happy life. The Aacharya’s idea behind the professional meet was “You educate the Class to educate the Mass”. The only concern was time where less than 25 days were left for the summit. But with Acharya's blessings & the way team members planned and executed the same was quite inspiring and made this summit a historic event.
People from various fraternities like Doctors, Chartered Accountants, Engineers, MBAs, Lawyers, and other professional had gathered for the event. All were received with a Welcome Kit. The entire auditorium was packed to capacity. The speech by Aacharya was about 90 minutes when the people hardly moved. Aacharya helped people refine not only their professional life but their personal life as well. The main focus was on 5c’s aspects of life namely Centre (Goal), Character, Contribution, Communication and Community. The examples given by the Aacharya and the simple ways shown to improve the life left people speechless. Every word by Aacharya was well accepted and applauded. The way Aacharya responded to the queries was amazing. The 243rd book written in Gujarati and 23rd book in English were inaugurated at this event and were given as complementary gift. The entire event was well on time and excellently managed. The entire team of JYF was on their toes to keep every guest at convenience and ease. The feedback from the crowd was beyond expectation.

Jain Health Care Workshop
Date: 08/08/2010
Venue: Maharashtra Seva sangh hall, Mulund
-
One of our committee member showed us the statistics of Jains with diseases and that is when we realized that most of those illness are preventable or at least postponable. That moment we decided not only to increase the life expectancy of jain but also to make that life healthier. We picked up some young doctors from our community; all of whom have excelled in their fields at very young age. The topics selected were those which were most ignored but most important. Importance of balanced diet & exercise, stress i.e anxiety, phobia and depression, spine and joint care and oral hygiene. As we see almost everyone of us requires awareness in one or more of these subjects, the only concern was how much interest would our people show in these seminar which might seem dry to many. To add to these there were many people with Siddhitap and that day was Beshna. But people response was much better than our expectations and the venue was nearly packed to capacity. We were very pleased to see our people interested in improvement of their health and it is these interest which motivates us to do more and more work for improving lifestyle of every Jain in this world. All the lectures were well timed and presented, people were nicely involved till the very end. Prominent Doctors also attended the event as guests and gave their wishes to JYF and appreciated the entire event. Even we learnt that by small and simple changes in our day to day life we can improve our life both by quantity and quality. Post event feedback was overwhelming. We hope our people continue to motivate us support us in our work towards betterment of jains.
