Aaj Jain dharma ke sandarbh me bunyadi baat yahan hai:

• Jain dharma har din ahimsa ( hinsa se bachna ), satya (sach bolna), asteya (chor na lena), brahmacharya (yatharth sambandh), aparigraha (kushta-sambandh na rakhna) jaise mãnav-evam vyavhar ke mool sutro par bal deta hai.
• Isi din, Digambar aur Shwetambar dono ke apne chune hue vrata/mani-anusar kuch alag vyakhya ya pratishtha hoti hai, par mool uddeshya—jan se jan par dayalu rehna aur atmavikas ko badhava dena—ek hi rehta hai.
• Yadi aap kisi vishesh tithi ya utsav ke baare me puch rahe hain (jaise Punya-Tithi, Mahavir Jayanti, Paryushan, etc.), to kripya bataye ki aapka din kis samay/kalendaar ke anusar hai, main us anusaar spasht aur sahi arth batata/ batati hoon.

Aam taur par aaj ke din Jain rehne wale log:

• ahimsa aur samyak-darshan ki pratishtha ko nibhate hain,
• chhote-chhote karyon me prem, daya aur samman ki soch ko apnate hain,
• aur vyavhar me satya, aparigraha aur samyak charitra ki chintan rakhte hain.

Agar aap chahen to mujhe aaj ki tithi (Gregorian date) ya aapke jain dharma ke shakha ka zikr bataiye, main us din ki visheshta (utsaav/vrata) ki saaf-safa arth batata/batati hoon.
