I would like to thank the entire Convention Committee for working tirelessly to bring you the first convention organized by JAINA with the help of multiple Jain Centers. A report on the convention appears in the inside pages and here I wish to take this opportunity to thank all the scholars, volunteers and participants for presenting Enlightened Entertainment, fabulous foods. and thought provoking lectures.
I am honored and pleased to assume the duties as President of JAINA. I am humbled as I think of all the past presidents who have put together a world class organization a beacon of Jain Unity. I will strive to further their endeavor and make JAINA even stronger.

The convention memories will linger but we have lot to do. In my convention souvenir article - "JAINA 14 next Twenty Five years" I have outlined my vision for 16 JAINA and it is also available on the JAINA website.
I want to hear from you if you can all agree or like to add your thoughts to this vision. Please write to me ..20 your thoughts on the future course for JAINA. We can 21 MAKE A DIFFRENCE, individually and collectively ..22 to the success of our beloved organization.

One of the most important new initiative that emerged from our convention was first ever forum on "JAIN .18 DIASPORA". The national boundaries are no longer .9 limiting factors for important movements such as .44 Jain Unity. JAINA will be hosting future forums on this subject and anyone interested in working on this forum is encouraged to write to me.

I wish all members of JAINA and Jain communities ..32 the best in the upcoming year and commit myself to serving the North American Jains to the best of my .46 abilities.

President, JAINA
