The first two batches of ISSJS.2014-4W and ISSJS.2014-6W, totaling 28 participants from the
universities of USA, Canada, Belgium, Russia and Netherlands arrived on May 31st 2014 at Vijay
Vallabh Smarak Jain Mandir, Delhi. Most of the participants are serious academically oriented ones
seeking detailed and referential knowledge about Jainism to help them learn all aspects of Jainism
as well as experience them as well.
After orientation/ induction in ISJS environment and self introduction, the program started with
detailed knowledge about Jainism and its place in Indian Philosophical systems, origin and history
of Jainism, schism till date, Ahimsa, Anekant and Aparigraha, soul, epistemology, Karma doctrine,
Jain canons and ethics. The class room lectures were indeed very interactive keeping the faculty
members alert as well. The participants also had daylong excursion to Lal Mandir, Indira Gandhi
National Centre of Art, Kund Kund Bharati, Ahimsa Sthal, Badi Dadabari and finally at Sanskriti
where Dr. O. P. Jain hosted a very sumptuous Delhi dinner besides showing the excellent
museum of day to day art, textiles and terracotta existing there. The participants also enjoyed
Snatra puja at Vallabh Jain Smarak to learn the religious rituals. A day long pilgrimage trip to
Hastinapur was enjoyed by all where Jambudweep, Nasiaji, Ashtapad, Kailash and other temples
were visited with an excellent lecture on Jain cosmography by Pujya Gyan Mati Mataji and excellent
food served at Jambudweep.
