On Shree Lalchandbhai Amarchand Modis 100th Janma Mahotsav (birthday celebration), the following:
  • audio lectures are now available, to listen on-line or to download!!:
    • A further 117 of the lectures by Shree Lalchandbhai Amarchand Modi recorded in London in 1982 have been added. These have not been available previously in MP3 format (only audio cassette!)

      If you do not know anything about dharma and are able to speak/understand simple gujarati then this is an excellent way to start and understand the deepest concepts!.....

      The lectures recorded in the hall start with the question "Dharma etlay shu?" - "What is Dharma?" and go on to explain all the technical terms like Dravya, Goon, Pariyay, Nishchay, Vyvhaar etc using simple language in a precise and concise manner.

      The lectures recorded at home go into much, much finer (sukxma) detail which becomes understandable once one has listened to, and understood the hall lectures.

      If you would like a copy of these on CD - then contact Chetanbhai Mehta.

2008/02/09 Finally the 2007-2008 AtmaDharma.com Jain Calendar is now available.

We are sorry for the delay. As you know the online calendar is based both on the Jaipur and Songadh printed calendars. Although we received the Jaipur calendar early it does not contain all the dates included in the online calendar. And unfortunately, we only just received the printed calendar from Songadh last week!

If there is anyone in India who gets the Songadh calendar (it should be available around Diwali each year) - then perhaps you could help speed up getting the online calendar, online by e-mailing us scanned pages of the Songadh calendar? Please get in touch with us on if you can help?

Also, if you find the online Jain Calendar useful, then perhaps you could ask the Songadh calendar producers to do a 5 or 10 year rolling version? Please do get in touch with Songadh by e-mail, post and phone if you would like to see a 5 or 10 year rolling calendar.
Sorry, no records matched your search.
