The Secular Saint
Rev Shri Amrender Muni Ji personifies religious tolerance - he believes in spirituality and not in religious sects.
His view is that religion should take us far away from differences. If in the name of religion there is an increase in differences between people then it means that we are harbouring sectarianism in the guise of spirituality. Thus Shri Amrender Muni Ji believes in equality of all religions. He has tolerance for all religions and sects and so has a very good relationship with all the Jain sects.
Acharya Samrat Rev Shri Anand Rishi Ji Maharaj has a special place in his heart for Rev Shri Amrender Muni Ji.
Devendra Muniji, Shiv Muni Ji, Acharya Shri Dharm Sagar Ji Maharaj, Acharya Shri Vidya Nand Ji Maharaj and Gurudev Acharya Shri Desh Bhooshan Ji Maharaj and other revered saints have praised his religious tolerance.
Revered Shri Amrender Muni Ji has also met with almost all the prominent lady saints of the Shraman Sangh- foremost among whom is Aryika Shri Gyanwati Mataji who has praised him highly.
The Acharya of the Tehra Panth- Shri Tulsi Gani Ji, Acharya Shri Maha Pragya Ji and the Acharya of the Murtipoojak sect Acharya Shri Padma Sagar Ji Maharaj, Acharya Shri Padm Vijay Ji Maharaj and Acharya Shri Yasho Vijay Ji Maharaj etc are also very attached to Rev Shri Amrender Muni Ji.
Not just the saints of the Jain sect but also the Shankaracharya of Kanchipur Shri Sarupachand Ji Maharaj, Shankaracharya Shri Jayant Saraswati Ji Maharaj, Shankaracharya Shri Niranjan Dev Ji Maharaj, Teerth Madhav Nand Ji Saraswati and Rishikesh saint Shri Chidanand Ji Maharaj, Swami Agnivesh Ji, Sant Shri Kripal Ji Maharaj, Sant Shri Darshan Ji Maharaj, Sant Shri Rajendra Ji Maharaj, Namdhari Param Guru Shri Jagjit Ji Maharaj revere him highly.
