Karuna Interview Samanijis London 3/3

Meditation and contemplation are taught in the course for non-violence in daily life, for the practice of the same is an adequate means to go beyond the material world and to discover the immaterial part of our nature. Many people get trapped in the one-sided focus on the material aspect of our life resulting in feelings of unhappiness and senselessness.

According to Samani Rohit Pragyaji the basic and equally most important principle is not to hurt any living being. This is the best way to realise reverence for life in all its facets. She continued that all material things, body included, are transitory. For leading a balanced life, including material and immaterial aspects and based on sustainability this insight is very helpful.

In her three London years the conjoint celebration of Mahavir Jayanti by all London Jain communities had the most impact on Samani Prasanna Pragyaji. She had suggested it after she had to rush to many different celebrations one year before.

Samanijis had given their precious time for the video session, and I felt happy and blessed. It was an atmosphere full of confidence, and there was no tension at all. I am in the video only by voice as I was behind the camera.

Thank you so much, Samanijis Prasanna & Rohit Pragya!
