JYLF - initiative to Ignite minds of todays Youth

Jai Jinendra,

I recently attended JYLF (Jain Youth Leadership Forum) 12th/13th Sept.
It was a great experience and is bound to change my thinking/life in near future. 100 Jain youths were selected all across bangalore from total of 650 participants.

Speakers from multiple domains professionals/government servants/industrialists/entrepreneurs/IT greats/Our religious Shravak adhyapaks shared their insights/experience and how jainism and its principles have helped them reach those heights in their life. There were lots of brainstorming sessions wherein all sort of questions/doubts were raised and all queries were resolved, properly addresses by the respected speakers. I just wanted to pass this message to all of you and would encourage you to pass this on to your fellow jain friends all around...

I know all of us follow our 5 great principles Ahmisa, Truth, Aparigraha, Achaurya(Asteya, Non Stealing), Brahmacharya in some form or the other and may be doing their bit...

Lets from today onwards start to put this more in practice and if possible spread it to other people as we jains have the ability and our principles have that capacity to bring change in this world, make this world green and we all can coexist in harmony...

Below are some of the initiatives started by our jain people
http://jylforum.org/
http://jito.org/ [Jain International Organization which has many sections ]
[ Main goal of JIO is to bring all jains irrespective of their sub sect so that jainism can be given its due importance and its plays a major role in all areas be it social, economical or political...

Lets spread Ahimsa in our own small way if we can...

PS: JYLF will be conducting one more session in December and we will need all you intellects to come forward and participate…
