BRANCH ACTIVITIES.
The Jain Association, Madras Presidency. Subsequent to the General Meeting held at Kil Yadalayam on 4th January 1914, (vide "Jaina Gazette," February 1914), three General Meetings and one Special meeting were held. About 200 members were present on each occasion. The time at the disposal of the speakers was not quite sufficient for them to deal with their respective subjects at length. is evident from this that this newly started Association is progressing day by day both spiritually and materially. The subjects discussed during the meetings were Ahimsa, Saptavyasanam, Samyak darshanam, Mukt-i-jeevan, Samsarajeevan, Knowledge, Om, Education, etc.
It
Abhishekam and Utsavam were performed to Sree Goddess Padmavati Amman at Vilukkam, a village 7 miles from Tindivanam, at the cost of the Association and by raising subscriptions from the Jain public. The Non-Jains, too, take The meman active part in the upkeep of this Association. bers of the Association are very much indebted for the sympathy and the kind-heartedness and the timely advice and assistance rendered by the venerable President of this Association.
May God bless us all.
