To
liberate today’s young generation from the clutches
of TV, Video and distorted western culture, It is imperative
to revive the dying Jain Philosophy and Culture. During the
last couple of centuries, adequate attention was not paid
to the propagation and proper understanding of Jain Philosophy,
as a consequence of which even Jains moved away from the lofted
ideals of Jainism, apart from non-Jains. Against the glare
of Science and Modernity, the invaluable culture and philosophy
of Jainism is dying a slow but painful death. The present
situation is all the more alarming, when we take into account
the fact that many Jain Families are ignorant of even the
most basic and fundamental tenets of Jainism. As a first step
towards the grand revival of interest in Jainism an its Philosophy,
Shree Tamilnad Jain Mahamandal, the beacon light of Jain youth
unity in the Metro city of Chennai, has taken up the gigantic
task of presenting to the world the golden moments of Jain
history in the form of Jain Museum. To enable the present
generation to take inspiration from this Museum and facilitate
the coming generations to inherit the rich legacy of Jainism,
we earnestly request your participation morally as well as
fiscally in the fulfillment of this gargantuan task. |
