Welcome message from JAINA President
Jai Jinendra
I am glad to extend warm welcome on behalf of the JAINA Executive Committee on this 14th Biennial Convention held at Raritan Center in Edison, NJ. This is indeed a new day for us, because JAINA is holding it for the very first time its biennial convention with the help of all centers regardless of the size.
The glorious history of JAINA Conventions hosted by single Sangh in the past was exemplary of the team effort regardless of the size of the Sangh. The future is taking us one step ahead to national team work to bring JAINA convention on a major scale. It will be possible for all centers to contribute and be part of the JAINA convention. I want to congratulate and thank all Jain Centers and individuals across the nation who came forward to take the lead and be part of the history making in this fresh approach.
"Peace through Dialogue" is a timely topic which addresses violence at all fronts including most recently at the university level. Nations have been successfully working at bringing peace through dialogue. Jain values are going to be discussed by the speakers and scholars. Major entertainment programs will also address the same theme.
I wish you all the best time and learning experience.
Kinde
