Swetembar Terapanth Acharya Mahapragya Is No More
In the Sad Demise of Acharya Shri Mahapragyaji, the world has lost the most revered saint. His charismatic personality and forward looking approach played great role in uniting masses and guiding them. He was all the time incontestable authority due to the ever present humility in his approach, knowledge of subjects and love of the devotees. While he had great regard for the traditionally set religious parameters, rituals and customs, he recognized the requirements of change and whole heartedly supported it. Historic “Ahimsa Yatra” made him a National Hero. His deep sense of understanding of national affairs involved him in Gujarat, Kashmir and Punjab issues. Without drawing unnecessary media attention, he worked hard for their solutions. He was frequently consulted by the government machinery on social and political issues.
We had a chance to interview him for www.jainsamaj.org (Ahimsa Times) and JAINA’S Bi - Annual conference in USA. It was a great opportunity to talk to this legendry personality in person at Jaipur. His open hearted approach was really amazing. He really believed in universal freedom, brotherhood, peace and general wellbeing of everyone. All through his life he followed a rigorous routine without showing signs of any strain. We on behalf of “ Ahimsa Foundation” are deeply saddened to learn of the death of Acharya Shri Mahapragyaji. We offer heartfelt condolences. We recall with gratitude Acharya Shri Mahapragyaji’s long years of devoted service to the Jain Samaj as the 10th Acharya of Terapanth and especially his sustained efforts in the promotion of justice and peace in India.
