Renunciation consists not in giving up material needs alone, but also in attachment. Needless amassing of the materials or that of tendencies ultimately breed misery. So also , renunciation should not be taken as a mean for self-upliftment alone, this wields the power to transform society either. Bringing down the needs not only curb the wastegate of resources, the judicious distribution of them gets possible too. Remember, for the health of environment this is the best option either . As the greed sheds mutual conflicts come down. The sense of cooperation prospers there of. This preaches Jain Muni Veer Sagar Maharaj in one of the public events .
Going deeper into Mahaveer Swami’s teaching: ‘Paresperopgraho jiwaanam’ , he explains that through appeasing the hunger of the other ; providing medicines to the patient , fearlessness to feared, or knowledge to ignorant that we get closer to inner peace. Extra wealth is a burden until it serves not a needy.
In the normal course such spiritual discourses begins with the insight into the path of purification of behavior before resorting upon the way of austerity to attain spiritual upliftment. However , another Muni, Akshay Sagar ji Maharaj, that made visit to Sihore town near Bhopal (MP) stopped not here only. Besides spirituality a man needs mental and physical wellness too. Promoting Swadeshi or indigenous way of medical treatment , he therefore called upon organizing 7 days ‘Free-Ayurveda Shivir’ for all under the aegis of Jain community . Under the guidance of Jain Muni and with the support of Arogya Bharti of Rashtriya Swayam Sewak Sangh (Organization active in medical field ) in the presence of a team of Ayurveda doctors led by Dr. Maheswari and a dentist Dr Gagan Namdev of Arogya Bharti the people were treated. The ‘Panchkarma’ and the treatment through the observation of Nadi (pulse) by a Ayurveda specialist was the highlight of the Shivir . Living in Jabalpur , it was Sachin Bhai ji Vaidha who by the virtue of his talent in the miracle of Nadi-observation went in making out diagnosis of the ailment , and the remedy there of. Even as no less were the patients visited for the dental-treatment. The drops of Swarn- Prash were also fed to the people, more notably.
In the Shivir that the people came to be reminded of getting themselves exposed out of close room for the fresh atmosphere . Remaining stuck with the online for a long might aggravate the problems. If feeling disenchanted, try to learn something new. Take food not too fast. Relishing the food slowly and following Ayurveda norms of Dincharya-Ritucharya (To be consuming as per guideline ‘ When in the day and what in the season’ ) serves as a medicine too besides taste. Be wise to be not depending too much on the Apps for the edibles . No amount of nutrition is beneficial if not digested . If unable to do exercise just do a slow deep-breathing pranayama sitting 5 minutes. Last but not the least , people also knew that through Yoga not only wellness is achieved but even talent grow refurbished .
Addressing the public at the closing ceremony, Muni Akshay Sagar Maharaj took all by surprise when he told that such Free -Ayurveda Shivirs had been conducted in 401 different places with the contribution of local residents so far !
