Ramayan No Sanskar Varso – Jain Ramayan by Kirtiyashsuri Maharaj

Introduction to Jain Ramayan

The Ramayan No Sanskar Varso is an extraordinary literary work that presents the Ramayan through the profound lens of Jain Dharma. Authored with deep spiritual insight, this book delves into the life and virtues of Bhagwan Ram from a Jain perspective, highlighting his journey as a selfless ruler, an ideal son, and a seeker of ultimate truth.

In Jainism, Ramayan is not just an epic but a guide to righteous living. Unlike the traditional narratives, where Lord Ram is depicted as an incarnation of Vishnu, Jain Ramayan portrays him as a great soul who upholds dharma while remaining a detached, enlightened being. This book beautifully encapsulates these teachings, offering wisdom that transcends generations.

Authored by Kirtiyashsuri Maharaj – A Spiritual Treasure

Kirtiyashsuri Maharaj, a revered Jain scholar and spiritual leader, has dedicated his life to spreading the principles of Jain Dharma. His pravachans (discourses) are known for their deep-rooted understanding of Jain philosophy, offering clarity and guidance to seekers of truth.

Ramayan No Sanskar Varso is a culmination of his teachings, emphasizing the virtues of truth, non-violence, and detachment as exemplified by Ram in Jain Dharma. His interpretations provide a refreshing and enlightening perspective on the Ramayan, making it a must-read for scholars, devotees, and anyone interested in understanding the Jain view of Lord Ram.

Ramayan in Jainism – The Unique Jain Perspective

Jain Ramayan differs significantly from the traditional Hindu Ramayan. According to Jain scriptures:

1. Rama as a Balbhadra – In Jainism, Ram is depicted as a Balbhadra, a noble and righteous hero who attains liberation through renunciation rather than being an incarnation of Vishnu.
2. Lakshman as Vasudev – Contrary to other versions, Lakshman is portrayed as Vasudev, who engages in battles while Ram remains a non-violent soul.
3. Ravan’s Liberation – Unlike other interpretations where Ravan is seen as a demon, Jain Ramayan suggests that he ultimately attains salvation after his karmic cycle concludes.
4. Sita’s Ascetic Path – Sita is revered for her penance and dedication to dharma, showcasing her journey towards spiritual awakening.

This book presents these aspects in detail, backed by ancient Jain texts and teachings.

• Ahimsa (Non-Violence) – Ram, as per Jain beliefs, avoids violence and focuses on inner purification.
• Satya (Truthfulness) – His unwavering commitment to truth is a guiding light for all.
• Tyag (Renunciation) – The ultimate message of detachment and spiritual liberation.

These teachings resonate deeply with today’s generation, offering timeless wisdom in a world seeking peace and balance.
