From time immemorial, Parvadhiraj Paryushanparva is celebrated for eight days from Shravan Vad Agiyaras. Which is the sacred eternal festival of Jainism.
Parvadhiraj Paryushan Mahaparva is a sacred occasion which comes once in a year. Which inspires religion in the hearts of many virtuous souls. In the festival of Paryushana, faith and devotion prevail among the seekers.
Paryushana is a great opportunity to do welfare of the soul! When Paryushana comes, the person begins to feel the excitement in the distance, the seeker is inspired from within, that in this invaluable opportunity I get, I will do good deeds like Dharmasadhana, Tapa, Tyaag, Dan etc. There is a doctrine of persecution. 'O man! Your whole life has been focused on others. You kept working hard to keep your things, individuals, family and society happy, but you could not take care of yourself. Paryushana is the core of sadhana, you listen to God, you listen to Guru, you listen to the words of saints, you listen to the words of all, but if you do not listen to the voice of your conscience, there is no change in you.
We’ve done a lot of work so far but we haven’t done the work of listening to ourselves, handling it. Forgetting to save oneself in saving everyone else.
Man has from time immemorial made serious mistakes of forgetting and not listening to himself. All this time was spent in ignorance and darkness. But in this bhav, due to some virtue of agalabhava, there is yoga to think of something serious, then there is a coincidence of a guru who gives time somewhere. It is like making the same mistake over and over again.
Even life is on fire. The day man was born, at the same time one day death is approaching. And all his time is spent thinking about others, constantly talking to them. Everyone is interested, others! But no one has time to think about their own self or soul.
He who lives a life of remembrance of death can live a meaningful life. If a person can recognize the sign of death, then he can make his life meaningful.
Parvadhiraj Paryushan Mahaparva gives an anero teaching, identify the 'self', listen to it and save it. Today we have time to recognize our conscience and dive into it.
As long as the mind has the cover of charming karma. Until then the person keeps trying to hold on to the relationship and wealth. But the day he realizes the misery of material possessions. Then he knows the attraction of inner spiritual wealth!
