About DELHI

Jainism is an ancient religion of India that prescribes a path of non-violence towards all living beings. Its philosophy and practice emphasize the necessity of self-effort to move the soul towards divine consciousness and liberation. Any soul that has conquered its own inner enemies and achieved the state of supreme being is called Jina (Conqueror or Victor). Jainism is also referred to as Shraman (self-reliant) Dharma or the religion of Nirgantha (who does not have attachments and aversions) by ancient texts.

Origin :

Lord Mahaveera’s ardent devotee, Acharya Bhiksu initiated a religious revolution leading to the foundation of ‘Terapanth’ which maintains its identity as a sect of every human being. The ninth spiritual leader of Terapanth, Acharya Tulsi realized that time circumstances are ripe to hand over the leadership of country and society in the hands of youth, because youth power is the big ray of hope where in creations of ideas and competencies are possible. Acharya Tulsi believed in the strength of youth which lead to the formation of AKHIL BHARTIYA TERAPANTH YUVAK PARISHAD(ABTYP) on 17 th September 1964.
