Beyond blood ties & family: How two siblings in Surat left material world to become Jain monk & nun 

Almost all the people who become Jain monks or nuns at a very young age say that they were inspired by their parents. This means that the kids were practically schooled every day to believe that this is the correct and ultimate path at a very impressionable age. Wouldn't it have been better for the parents to wait until the kids reach adulthood before they took this decision. In our country religion is such a sensitive topic that no government dares to interfere in this.

Legal voting age is 18, legal drinking age is 25, legal driving age is 18. Then how come this is legal?

Great Initiative. Hope some Learning experience is imparted to many in a materialistic world such as today.

The mother is the main culprit . Their mother has tried so much to feed the sanyasi behaviour in their brain since childhood and taught the possitivity and the good feelings to be with guru. And she clearly says that she will not accept their homecoming. But anyways, the father wants their children to return.

I am a jain The only thing I dislike is there should be no deeksha before 18

All children deserve parents but all parents dont deserve children

Why don't their parent themselves become monk first.. why push their kids like a sacrificial goat?

Salute to brothers and sisters😙☺❤

Huge respect for my Jain brothers and sisters

It's crazy ,imagine walking without shoes and begging for food. Who saw God

8-12 years old children!! How is this even allowed , i seriously question such parents. Gov should ban such things for children below 14, are they capable for taking such decisions? Do they even know what's life and materiality? You feed them Religious things from a very young age, of course they are into it, this is so bad!!

I have huge respect for Jainism and their tradition.They have made a lot of contribution to the ways of RajaYoga/hathaYoga. In Hinduism too Monkhood is highely respected to achieve Moksha but Lord Krishna has considered life of Grihastha who is engaged in the world but not attached to it as equally great practice.Is called Karmayoga In Hinduism, We think of the spritital journey as a marathon,not a sprint. Slowly Slowly with the help of 4 yogas , we develop vairagya from the material world.Once the vairagya is developed and family is self sustained , a hindu leaves home for sanayasa.

Even Gautam Buddha and Mahavir jain left their house to seek enlightenment at the age of 30 ...i think kids should not be allowed to take this decision...everyone should live their life till 30 and then decide what they want for themselves

A girl May attain puberty at any age after 12 or even earlier but it is a proven fact that real maturity of a girl happens only after the age of 21 when apart from the body the brain reaches the stage of complete growth.. For males it is at 25 .. Any decision taken by the girls or boys before the completion of the maturity is purely either impulsive or because of direct or indirect coercion by those who have influence over the kids over a period of time.. Parents try to influence by inserting thier own wishes and dreams or things which they wished for but couldn't make them happen for them and during the time that kids spend their free time during school holidays,or after school time plays a very big part in shaping up an opinion.. About the Jain munis.. Although Jainism was recently declared as a seperate religion which was practically wrong as it is just a way of life a kind of discipline instilled in life by own will or by force and since the community got the seperate religion and alongwith that the prized minority status different sects of the extremely micro minority community have become vocal and ambitious and are openly calling to shun all activities and rituals which are linked to santhana Hindu sanskriti,, Marriage rituals until recently where exactly the same as Hindus but now a very big significant percentage of marriages are being customised under a newly created Jain vidhi,,Post death rituals from mundan ceremony to 12 days of mourning have been done away with partly and in many cases completely to the extent that in many recent cases mourning ends the second day after death and no post death rituals like thier ancestors used to do as similar to Hindu rituals.. And to showcase power and following existing Jain sadhus are maybe trying hard to influence as much as possible to get Deeksha bcoz the power of a Jain saadhu is measured by the number of disciples he has and in this already shrinking community of just around 70lakhs that too has atleast 3-5 different sects completely against each other claiming supremacy those who worship the idol and those who don't is a Big divide in this very very small community and the digambar Jain sect is another completely different sect which considers itself as the best... Also not helping this community hurtling towards extinction in the very near future is family planning which has been adopted big time to save resources and also creating their own kind of Jain only ghettos in apartment complexes and minimising interactions with other communities..The rigidity adopted by this community just in the last 10 years has become open for all to.see and the number of temples closed bcoz of zero population in some villages and towns and on the other side building exclusive temples for just 10-15 families in an apartment when already there are temples in the vicinity all is not just drain on the resources that this community is fiercely trying to protect but it is also cutting out its next generation from outside their community which again has just micro families and the surge of getting Diksha extracting the already few young and productive...

No matter how far they go against materialism they still need materialism to survive. Like alms.

Good report

very good story

Mother was saying that should not complaint that means they complain about hardships,society will not accept so where will you go,so stay there.I am confused.The kids were clear about choice then why mother had to intervene and say you have to adjust.This statement is just to understand better what mother meant and not to disrespect anyone’s sentiments.

Would be interesting to know the legal perspective where a law like RTE would mandate a child to finish his or her education. Does religious education count as normal education, legally speaking? Or is the law being broken?

Maybe, or is it, some kind of a belief like giving up one child to such renounced lifestyle brings a family some kind of good luck, value in the community or punya!!? One of the mother sounded very strong and also said they are not supposed to complain or return to normal life and she said that they will not be accepted by family and society!!!!!! It's pressure on the person but any kind of diksha is supposed to be unconditional submission and that kind of dedication can't be delivered by force or tuning. It can be achieved by people who have the knowledge of lively world and godliness and then get to a conclusion of choosing a path of renunciation. Do young kids have such ability!?

Really Great People Recently Visited @ Surat Learned About Jain History 🫡🙏🙏🫡💐🙏

I don’t understand why no bathing?????

This our culture. These kids realized, they had everything and nothing. Ultimately we have to leave this world.

Great 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

अहो निर्ग्रंथ वीर श्रमण श्रमणी भगवंत❤

Respect

In my humble opinion, being a monk is pointless they can be kind and honest. They can help pay exam fee of poor students or pay for the Cataract surgery of a few people

They did a great job most of the people should take deeksha😂❤❤

Casually I told my mom I want to become sanyasi. Currently she started searching girl for me for marriage. Really great parents who allow their children to become sanyasi 🙏

Aho Jinshasanam!

This Video has done a mistake by dubbing it to English incorrectly especially I belive when dubbing says God I belive might have said Mahaveer Baghwan who is a Tirtankaras . Being a Jain I can say Jainism does not belive in god instead belives in Tirtankaras who attained omniscience, Hence Jainism is not a theist but agnostic in nature.

According to jains God are No one except those souls who conquered their inner enemies like anger,pride,Maya,greed etc...& they call these souls as Sidh-parmatmas means those Param(prime) + atmas (souls) who attained nirvana and became siddhas... all souls have this potential and can rewch their goal bybtheir effort ...... once you start learning jain metaphysics it wil leave u in state of wonder how vast deep accurate logical reasoning knowledge they have in their scriptures that were told about thousands /millions of years ago ..Jei Jinendra 🙏 😊

feeling good and feeling bad at the same time.

Why is it dubbed and not original voice

I think all jain’s should take deeksha is a very good thing atleast some people get advantage in absence of you ❤

अहो जिनशासन❤❤respect❤

The parenst influence kids to this path... why don't they themselves leave everything and brcome monks?

High level of brain wash.. They should understand if God has given them Human life after getting into so many other yonis then they should not waste this human life gifted by God

They can serve society being in family life.

Yo Monami….tumar journey’r uporot ata video bonua.

Are jain monks allowed to return to their earthly lives?

I wish I were a jain mink.. at a early stage..

Jai Ho Jai Ho❤

I wonder why they are all talking of god in such a literal sense. Jainism is supposed to have a much more abstract conception of god... so god does not give them any material, any traits, or any instructions. And yet, these people talk as if there is a personal god. Strange.

How to become jain sadvi and whom to contact

It's very difficult journey According to me we are humans It's very difficult to compromise our emotions , sacrifice our comfort.but it should be for some months then they should come back to home.....

Now the parents has also renounced

First of all jain sadhu sadhvis are not begging for food...its jus a process of going door to door and people happily take labh/with pride of this food

What about your parents Do you visit them

Jai jinshasan Jai mahaveer Mathe vandami to guru maharaj saheb ji

if every one becomes a monk, who's gonna run the economy?

I don't understand the interview with the Jain nun. I thought that Jainism is atheistic? So, what does it mean to "become God" in this context? It sounds more like Advaita Vedanta.

bacche ki maa khud saj daj ke expensive saree gold mein baithi ha aur apne bacche ko galat cheezo ka influence khud ya dusre se karwa ke unko faltu ka suffering de rahi, jaisa soch daloge waisa hi life ka meaning janege bacche, ab inhone soch hi waisa dala to unko wahi life hi sahi lag raha warna 99% child to hamari tarah hi normal life jete

Before judging them. People should just think for one moment about how insane this material world is.

Is it possible to be a monk for few months ?

Mujhe lagat jab bachaa 18 saal ke uske baad hi usko diksha lene ki permission honi chahiye Jab wo adult hoga tabhi use purna samajh aayegi aur tabhi wo deeksha kya hai thikse samajh payega

I love jains

Jayjinered very good Anumdana kalpana shah gpo Ahmedabad

How come a child decides to renounce.

संस्कृत या प्राकृत या हिंदी या गुजराती में बात करते तो गुजराती जनता को समझ में आता. धन्यवाद 🙏🙏🙏

It’s not called " Begging "

Bilkul Nhi accept karenge ? Kya tha ye , parents aise kese ho sakte hai why to give them birth if you’re encouraging them if they wanna get rid of this birth cycle ? A question with due respect

If you want to do good be good while being in the society and not outside it. There is a time and place to renounce all and that is not when you have the strength to do some good. renouncing life / responsibilities in such young age is running away from it all. Again this is my opinion. to each his own.

Nothing but this is madness 👎🏻

Jay Sadhvi Maharaj Saheb ❤❤

The path of jain muni mahavir is difficult one. It's not everyones cup of tea.

Some of the strict jain family don't feed milk to newborns and infants after sunsets. Because they believe after sunset eating food is a big sin...the whole night child crying but their family starving little child. this is how they try to teach the habits of their dharma to their child.. I heard it and saw it around in many families.

Ok

Jainsim be like : Let's cross the sea without a boat😂

I agree with dad.... Mom is not being practical...

Whats the main reason parents want to turn their kids into nuns and monks?

🙏🙏

It is their soul calling not their body & Mind calling ...Log yaha soch rahe hai arey ye toh itni kam age mai ...moksha ki journey soul se shuru hoti hai apki soul ki maturity and God will decide karti hai apka path na apki Human age ...Aise concept ko samjhne k liye apko khud soul level par awaken hona padta hai aur waise b bhagwan ko jisko awaken karwana hota hai phir toh koi usko nai rok sakta

Am an hindu and now addicted to insta n RU-vid..now am thinking monkhood is the answer for my existential crisis.m

Left material world but what to eat

In Bangalore a person got caught up in serious criminal case and he also got booked for it and then maybe some one gave him this idea he took diksha and was like that for nearly 8 years then he came back to society and is still living a good life as a normal family person.. There may be many cases like this but bcoz this community is closed and outside influence is nearly non existent it is not easy to guess the real reasons behind this surge of late .

They are skipped life issue, don't want to face life issue,

God looks at our heart, man sees outward appearance. So, no need to appear naked before eyes of the world .

There should have been some law in this...we can serve poor and needy people around us instead of this

My respect to Jain munis and Sadhavis. I wish to ask some questions. 1. There is nothing called MOKSHA - Freedom from the cycle of life and death. We all are eternal souls playing our parts destined in the form of sanskar within our souls. No soul on earth can escape from the cycle of life and death ( the cycle of 5000 years is called one Kalpa.) Even Mahaveer/ Adideva/ Adinatha/ Jagannatha /Manu/ Bholenatha /Shankara/ Teerthankara/ Puranapurusha /Adam/ Adham Sulleman is bound in the cycle of life and death.When this is the eternal truth then why such strict penance???? 2. A swimmer can be called the best only when he or she swims in mightiest tides of Pacific Ocean . So also to win over the vices/ vikar / karmendriyas one should be in the house, in the family and in the society and do the sadhana of detachment. Leaving the world and becoming sanyasi and punishing one self with strict rules, practices will not fetch anything. When this is the eternal truth, why do Jain munis and Sadhavis punish themselves to the highest degree ?? ( In this path one cannot attain complete victory over KAMA Krodha Lobha Moha and Ahankara and one cannot win over the mind and karmendriyas.one cannot Realize the ultimate truth of shristi .one cannot Realize our two eternal father's 1. Father of all souls on earth - Lord Shiva 2 .Father of entire humanity- Adinatha). I am not challenging any body. I need an answer for my knowledge and enlightenment.

Jai jurudev

Being in the diamond business is an antithesis to the tenets of their faith no? It's highly materialistic and non essential, and diamond mining harms the natural environment.

In the end we want to become god😂😂😂😂

Who has come here after these couple took sannyas in 2024?

Do Jains practice hinduism or they have a religion of their own

Last wale vayaaa is a real person who took the right decision...to return

Not having a bath 😮

Take a wrong decision and defend it till death. That is mumukshu

Shame on these parents

Jain dharm ki jai

How come a 12 year old is allowed to take decisions about his/her life choices? This is just dumb! In today's India, when we need the maximum of our youth to join in the process of nation building, these guys are just brainwashed and motivated by their parents from an early age and give them the perfect excuse to skip duties, be it towards the nation or family. The government should and must outlaw such practices.

Why parents themselves not living simple life. Why they are wearing jewellery and leading lavish life. One child is there to look after them and their business. Two are sent away. So no fight for family business and also they got name and fame sacrificing their children.

I feel bad

All jains pls go fr diksha

Good way to escape from responsibilities

Why not bathing?

Never bathing 🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼 omg noooooo

There are certain issues with this lifestyle: 1) Can a minor make choices or decide to renounce or lead an ascetic lifestyle? What does the legal provisions of the land say.. Child rights and protection laws say about these? 2) Begging as part of any religious custom should be prohibited. Especially when there is no reasonable circumstances to indulge in begging, when ur the ward of a diamond businessmen and u engage in begging it is an unreasonable practise.

Wat i deel if the jains took diksha . Thery should continue studies , and they xan practise itbas a part of there lifestyle and should revoke it when they need ,
