A discussion with the President of America Mr Bill Clinton
Shri Amrender Muni Ji's exceptional qualities are that he is full of sweetness, compassion, warm heartedness, and a simplicity that touches everyone he meets. He has succeeded in introducing people all over the world to the principles of Lord
Mahavir. The environment in America is oriented towards materialism. In such an environment, awakening the masses to spirituality is no small feat.
The then President of America, Mr Bill Clinton, impressed by his radiant personality, went to meet Shri Amrender Muni Ji. Mr Bill Clinton: In your view, who is a Jain? Acharya Shri Amrender Muni Ji: Whether an individual is Hindu, Sikh ,Christian or Buddhist or of any other faith is not important. If he has compassion and love towards all living creatures and he eschews anger, ego, deceit, greed, jealousy and works toward unity of all, and believes in vegetarianism and non violence then he is a Jain. Being a Jain does not depend on religious affiliations. Bill Clinton: Muniji what is the background of Jainism? Acharya Shri Amrender Muni Ji: To preserve the culture of humanity, Jains sacrificed everything but never compromised their principles or indulged in violence. An individual who is following Jainism proceeds on his path with a heart full of love.
