Getting Best in Life Ahead (Art and Science of Living Jain Way) | Shailesh Mehta Jain Lifestyle | HS
Human life is considered a precious asset, but how do we make the best use of it? We should have a balanced growth in all areas; not only in IQ, but in EQ and SQ, too. This poses the question: do I need to know the Jain path or science? How does it help me? Is it a difficult and ritualistic task or an easy and practical path? This session will answer these questions and bring out some useful and practical aspects of Jainism revealed by Tirthankaras.

Jains are the richest minority, but when it comes to health we are in the bottom 25%! Sarva Mangal Family Trust (SMFT) had challenged Jain Community members of Southern California to assess and improve their health in 2012. Together, we will share our experiences in Southern California and how we have reached out to improve health of the Jain Community. Why do we need to do this? Because "health is the best wealth one can ever have!"
