Here is a simple Upashray plan in Jain tradition, suitable for sadhus, sadhvis, and shravaks/shravikas to do dharmic activities like swadhyay, pratikraman, samayik, and meditation.

Basic Upashray Plan

1. Main Entrance

• Clean and simple entrance
• No loud decoration
• Shoe area outside
• Separate handwashing area if possible

2. Main Hall

• Spacious, शांत, and clean
• White or light-colored walls
• Simple floor seating arrangement
• Enough space for:

- Samayik - Pratikraman - Swadhyay - Pravachan

• No unnecessary furniture

3. Seating Area

• Low seating with asans or mats
• Separate respectful space for sadhus/sadhvis if needed
• Keep seating organized and uncluttered

4. Study/Swadhyay Corner

• Small shelves for Jain books and sutras
• Quiet reading space
• Good lighting

5. Pratikraman Space

• Open central area
• Should allow orderly sitting in rows
• Clean and undisturbed atmosphere

6. Storage Area

• For books, asans, cleaning items, and basic supplies
• Keep it closed and neat

7. Washroom/Utility Area

• Kept at a distance from the main prayer/study area
• Always clean and hygienic

8. Ventilation and Light

• Good natural air and sunlight
• Calm and peaceful environment
• Avoid strong noise or bright distractions

Important Jain Principles for Upashray

• Maintain ahimsa and cleanliness
• Keep the place simple and non-ostentatious
• Avoid food, music, and worldly activities inside
• Use the place only for dharmic and spiritual purposes
• Respect the discipline and silence of the space

Simple Layout Idea

• Front: Entrance + shoe area
• Middle: Main hall for samayik/pratikraman
• Side: Swadhyay corner / book shelf
• Back: Storage and utility area

If you need, I can also make:

• a small upashray map
• a floor plan in room-by-room format
• or a temple-campus upashray layout
