swadhyay (n.) — a guided discovery of oneself through the study of Jain teachings and introspection

The YJA Swadhyay Group is an advanced Jainism class intended for college students and working professionals up to the age of 29 who want to deepen their understanding of Jainism.

“Follow the path not because I say so, but because it is the Truth,” were the words of Bhagwan Mahavir to his disciples. Param Samyaktaji Mahasatiji’s journey also began with the same thirst to understand the truth in totality before embracing it. She pursued her B. Com degree from a reputed university in Pune (India), and simultaneously analysed it with the life management science of Bhagwan Mahavir. After exploring where does true happiness lie, she decided to advance on the path of spirituality. She has been blessed with the vows of Jain Diksha by Rashtrasant Param Gurudev Shree Namramuni Maharaj Saheb in 2018.

Before embracing the path of Diksha, Param Mahasatiji has delivered lectures during the Paryushan Mahaparva at Uganda (Africa). She has delivered profound lectures on Shree Uttaradhyayan Sutra in 2019 at Kolkata and July 2021 for International School For Jain Studies (ISJS). 2020 was an exceptional year where most spiritual festivals were also conducted in a virtual format. And the Jain festival of Paryushan Mahaparva was no different. During this global Paryushan, Param Mahasatiji has delivered sessions to spiritual aspirants from Florida, Washington, Virginia, Tempa Bay, Seattle and Leicester through live webcast.
