3. Lectures on Das Dharma as a part of daily lectures.
4. Use Anant Chaturdarshi or nearest Sunday to celebrate Khsamapana Divas for all Jains
At Major Centers we suggest to do the following:
1. Read Kalpa Sutra and Bhagwaan 's Charitra on daily basis during 10 days
2. Lectures on Das Dharma during 8 days of Paryushana. Include part of lectures in Hindi, and English
3. Use Anant Chaturdarshi or nearest Sunday to celebrate Khsamapana Divas for all Jains
Suggestion for celebration of Paryushana and Das Laxana together for 10 days:
1. Start on Friday before Chaturthi and conclude on Next Sunday 2. This would include two full week ends.
3. This will include Chaturthi and Panchami - most sacred days. 4. Every day Vanchan of Kalpa Sutra and 24 Tirthankar's charitra 5. Everyday lectures on Das Dharma following Alochana Paath. 6. First Sunday we all celebrate Bhaqwaan's Janma Divas
7. Celebrate Khsamapana Divas by doing Samvatsari Pratikraman and Alochana Paath on Last Sunday including Tapasvi's Bahumaan.
8. Creatively incorporate Hindi, English, and Gujarati to bring all Jains. together.
9. Invite scholars with varied expertise to enrich our self.<>
