There was a village named Lakhtar near Vadhwaan. It was a remote area having the residence of a Few Jain Families. They weren't blessed the consumption of luxuries
and pleasures as generally, the citizens do. They had to simply take the meal depending on the income they earn for the day and live the entire life with immoderate satisfaction and peace. A millionaire businessman of Valkeshwar had once said, "Sahebji, my company has an annual turnover of millions of rupees and the land of thousands of acres is under my name. Knowing this, people speak that I live a comfortable life, but seriously I wonder on their claim, because according to me, the actual comfortable life is enjoyed just by you people. Although you have nothing with us, you still comprise some unique element, which we can possess by no means and that's the tremendous satisfaction for all what you receive." The words of this gentleman came from the bottom of his heart and were significant that though it isn't possible to pull him back from the self-generated gamble, he's highly got tired from it!
Well even though these villagers were having a good lifestyle, there was a major problem they were forced to endure every year due to their short -comings. As it was a remote village, no Sadhu Bhagwant was ever found spending
a Chaturmas here; also there was no Shravak Shravika in the village who was having even a basic knowledge about the rituals of Jainism. Even in the auspicious days, they had no opportunity of linking them with the religious activities as to from where would they bring an individual who could guide them perfectly for this purpose.
The days of Paryushana arrived in this way. Just as they might do every year, the initial days went by just as one drives the vehicle with broken wheels. But this time, they felt that it's essential for them now, to find some solution for this problem. One of them suggested that the best way was to request the nearby Vadhwaan Sangh, for sending someone to at least assure that they follow the rituals on the last day of Samvatsari. It was a good idea and everyone agreed to it. As a result, the request was sent to the temple of Vadhwaan.
Here, as soon as they received the proposal of Lakhtar, the Trustee adopted their mission of finding the 'Mr. Perfect' for the position of Sangh's representative. Meanwhile, Bhaichand came to know about this and he voluntarily approached the Trustees and showed the will of visiting Lakhtar on Samwatsari. The trustees were already introduced with the child's brilliance and they felt relieved that the pride of the Sangh was finally in the hands of a trust-worthy person.
On Samwatsari, he reached Lakhtar and accepted the Paushad joining 3-4 villagers with his inspiration. He even
