During the Jain festival of Paryushan, we might not all be able to do Jain fasting but there are numerous other small things and practices that we can easily adopt.

One of these practices is to stop using cosmetics. This is very easily possible for the 8 days of Paryushan Mahaparva. To take our Ahimsa Aaradhna (Non- violent practices) a notch higher, we can also try and not use soap and shampoo during the Paryushan Mahaparva. If soap or shampoo has ever gone in your eyes, then you are aware that even a little drop is enough to make you jump up and down in pain. Now imagine the kind of pain numerous microorganisms in the water feel, when this soap or shampoo mixes in the water. So, let’s ensure that we remain alert and take care of even the tiniest organisms by sacrificing these little things during the Paryushan Parva 2021.


Paryushan Parv – the 8 days Jain Festival of Forgiveness is an occasion to fulfill the responsibilities towards our soul. Paryushan parv is the time when our soul vibrates the most and thus during this time, a seeker should indulge in small small tasks that will make his spiritual journey all the more worthwhile. Rashtrasant Param Gurudev Shree Namramuni Maharaj Saheb profoundly enlists a detailed list of Do’s and Don’ts of what should be done and what we should refrain from doing during these divine days of Paryushan. During these Paryushan days, one should realize, repent and seek forgiveness for his mistakes by performing Pratikraman, Alochana fasting, taking small Pachkhan vows, etc. If a seeker is not well versed with the process and pronunciation of Pratikraman, he/she can purify his soul by also taking the support of Online Pratikraman Aradhana
