Answer

Jain Lakshmi Pooja / Chopda Poojan for Diwali 2026 is on:

Sunday, 8 November 2026

For Jain Dharma, Diwali is especially remembered as:

• Bhagwan Mahavir Swami’s Nirvana Kalyanak
• Gautam Swami’s Keval Gyan day
• Chopda Poojan / account-book worship is also commonly done by Jain families and businesses.

Muhurat

Lakshmi Pooja / Chopda Poojan muhurat depends on your city and country, because sunset and local panchang timings change by location.

Commonly, it is done during:

• Pradosh Kaal — after sunset
• Stable Lagna — often Vrishabh Lagna is preferred for Chopda Poojan

For many Indian cities, the evening muhurat is generally around:

6:00 PM to 8:30 PM local time

But the exact muhurat should be checked according to your city.

Jain Spiritual Understanding

In Jain Dharma, Diwali is not mainly a festival of worldly wealth. Its highest meaning is:

• Remembering Bhagwan Mahavir’s liberation
• Lighting the lamp of right knowledge
• Beginning new business books with honesty, non-violence, and purity
• Praying for inner prosperity — samyak darshan, samyak gyan, and samyak charitra
