Inspiration

Mathematics is the only pure subject in the world, free from passionate states. Jain scriptures have a deep root in mathematics, going as far as describing distinct infinities, a concept that wasn’t discovered until the 19th century in Europe. As a result, we should popularize a study of mathematics in the Jain context. The problems in this tournament are designed to be extremely challenging and we promise participating will be a unique experience for the YJA community!
