Celebrating 150th Janma Jayanti of the Yug Purush Shrimad Rajchandra Saturday, Nov 04, 2017 Jai Jinendra, Jai Prabhu Pranam JCNC is celebrating Kartik Purnima- 150th Janma Jayanti of Shrimad Rajchandra. Please join in this celebration with your family and friends.
Kartik Purnima - also called as Dev Diwali, falls on the 15th day of the waxing moon in Kartik month (15th day after the Diwali). This marks the end of Chaturmas or rainy season- sadhus restart vihar in India and shatrunjay mountains reopen for pilgrims. And that is why we do Shatrunjay Maha Tirth Pat (replica) darshan and puja done on this auspicious day.
Also Shrimad Rajchandra ji was born on Sunday, the night of the full moon of Kartik in VS 1924 or 9th November,1867 in Vavania, Gujarat. This day is also auspicious, as the full moon of Kartik, as we call Dev Diwali, also saw the birth of a great soul like the great Jain saint scholar Acharya Hemchandracharya.
