Jai Jinendra!
This is a holy occasion for all the Jains and all peace-loving aspirants who are completing ten successful years of the Temple's anniversary.
This Temple is a living example of your hard work and peaceful cooperation. This Temple welcomes all and is an inspiration to all: People of all walks of life, without any discrimination of caste or creed, man or woman, young or old, rich or poor, can come and pray peacefully to get in touch with their inner beauty.
When a world is torn in war and violence, we are blessed to have this rich heritage of nonviolence and peaceful co-existence with all living beings.
Vardhaman Mahavir lighted the lamps of ahimsa, anekantavada, aparigraha, law of karma and self-realization. Now it is our privilege to go on pouring the oil of service in these lamps to keep illuminating the path of love, peace, understanding and simplicity.

The greed of man and the ego of politicians, the narrow-mindedness of parochialism and Fanaticism of Fundamentalists have driven people to war and violence. War and violence are dehumanizing and, because of war and violence, millions of people are being killed and billions are suffering agonizing pain and torture -- but Jain teaching is an answer and a healing bond for mankind.
