Diwali (Jain) ke baare me short me:

• Mukhya arthat: Jain dharma me Diwali Mahavir ji ke nirvana (moksha) ki yaad me manai jati hai. Is din hum unki aashirvad aur ahimsa, satya, aparigraha jaise satvik sankalp ki pratiksha karte hain.
• Digambar aur Shwetambar dono me is din ki bhavna ek jaise hai, lekin kuch chhoti-moti tareekh ya ritirivazon me antar ho sakta hai. Dono paramparaon me satsang, stavan, aur dhyan ki roop-rup me puja ki jati hai.

Diwali puja ki saral vidhi (gharelu tarike se, seedha-saadha tareeke se):

1) Sthaan ki taiyari: Shuddh, shaant jagah banaayein. Diya ya lamp jalayein; alaukik prakash se man ko shanti milti hai. 2) Vastu-samman: Mahavir ji ke pratima ya chitr, anya Tirthankar ki pratima ya chitr ko sajayein. 3) Navkar Mantra: Suddha bhavna ke saath Navkar Mantra ka jap karein (sarvashreshth bhav se kiya jana chahiye). 4) Mangalcharan/ stuti: Mangala-charan ya stotra ki chhoti-padi (anjali) ya aasan (prarthana) karein. 5) Pratikraman ya chintan: Agar sambhav ho to pratikraman (p katere apraadh ki kshama prarthana) karein, dwesh aur galat vichaaron ko bhool kar shuddh bhav se aage badhein. 6) Sankalp aur dhyan: Ahimsa, satya, aparigraha, brahmacharya jaise yuktishil sankalpon ko yaad karein; vivek aur daya ki pratishna ko majboot karein. 7) Samapan: Sabhi bhag (parivaar, saathi) ke liye shanti aur mangal ki prarthana karein; ghar me diwali ki roshni ke saath dharma ki jyoti ko jagayein.

Yadi aap chahein to kai specific vidhi (jaise Digambar ya Shwetambar me kuch alag-amol uchcharan ya stuti) ke baare me vistar se jan sakte hain. Main Jain dharma ke sandarbh me spashth aur satik arth ke saath batane ke liye yahin hoon.
