Happy Diwali and Mahavir Nirvana Kalyanak from the Global Jain Network. Diwali is an auspicious day for Jains as it marks the day Mahavir Swami attained Moksha. In this time of self-reflection and self-purification, we ask all Jains to consider a fully vegan and environmentally-conscious Diwali to extend the essence of Diwali to all Jiv around us.
