My dear President, Chairman, Members
and Friends of Jain Center of America ~~
It is a joyful occasion to sanctify this auspicious event of Pratishtha Mahotsav, one of its kind in New York City, which will be a blessing to members of the Jain Center of America. I congratulate you all who have created this beautiful TempleComplex of Peaceful Liberators for mankind's peace and progress.
When the world is suffering from war and violence, Ahinsa and co-existence are the answer. We have been seeing even now that unprecedented slaughter of living beings is committed in the name of religion, nationality, post and position. In these times, a sanctuary of peace and prayer becomes an oasis in the desert of conflict.
Often people go to religious places to pray for the success of business, for power and position, for protection of their accumulated wealth. This sort of praying is the product of a greedy mind. Real prayer is meant for the peace and spiritual upliftment which open the door to divinity within and without.
This extensive renovated building into a Temple and a place for spiritual, cultural and social activities will be a reminder and an inspiration of love, peace, compassion, simplicity, multiplicity of perception, and freedom from war and violence.
Again, I want to express my best wishes to all of you on this auspicious occasion, and may my blessings be in the hearts of all who enter this Temple and in the hearts of all who can make a difference in the world by spreading peace through practice.

Love and Blessings, Chitrabhanu
