________________ Gems of His Thoughts: Selflessness and sacrifice are invariably necessary for the up-lift of Jain religion. We need not fear of cruelty or excesses but need to fight for justice and protection of religion. Even Lord Rama had to fight to save Sita. Shri Rama, Sugriva and Hanuman were the great men whole souls were on March towards Moksha-salvation. Nonviolence is not cowardice but it is the best instrument to gain bravery. It is not necessary to go to Jain temples for a show or for prestige. Jain temples are not the places where beggars live. They are the sources of inspiration for those who desire to attain Moksha-salvation, for those who want to be eternally free and for those who want to be detached with this world. * The Jain Religion is a Parasmani-a stone, which turns everything to gold on its touch. It makes an unholy, ignorant and uncivilized soul as pure as gold of total purity. 54
