NITISH SHAH, AGED 14, REVIEWS THE RECENT YOUNG JAINS CONFERENCE, EVERYDAY HERO W hen I first heard that I was going to spend my whole Sunday at a Jain convention, I was a bit reluctant to go; I didn't know what to expect or what was going to happen or even why we had to attend it, but in the end I went along and thought it might be interesting. Also as I'm 14 I thought not many people my age were going to turn up. When I arrived at the venue I realised that it was at the JVB (Jain Vishwa Bharati) centre, where I took a few Jain classes, and made my way up the stairs to where the room was. As soon I came in the room I saw lots of people gathered together, mingling and talking, it was quite exciting because I had never met half of the people and I first got my folder and book and then started to mingle and get to know a few of the people. Pooja Navkar Mantra Dhoop Pooja Darshan We started with an icebreaker, which was very effective, and I got to know a few more people (the name stickers really helped). Afterwards we carried on with the main topic, which was anekantvada. In one session they told us to think of a lemon and then asked if we thought of the smell, look and taste of a lemon. Then they said that even with one lemon, there are different perspectives. Then we had a talk on anekantvada from a special man and he gave an amazing insight to the idea of all perspectives making up a bigger, wider truth. So more exercises and workshops on anekant then the question and answer session, some people came up with really useful questions and great ideas were brought up. However, some of the questions asked were said without any understanding of what they might be asking about but on the whole, I say, a day well spent!■ www.jainelibrary.org
