YJA

There is some or the other latent quality in each one of us. To understand that latent quality and to focus on that is the talent. One's own efforts along with motivations, such as awards, praise etc. are effective in that direction.

The Young Jaina Award is one such motivation. The main objective of this award is to inculcate our cultural and moral values along with higher studies. This award may encourage the young students to strive for continuous development and making their lives better through social recognition and acceptance of their talent. 

With the blessings of Munishri Kshamasagarji - true descipile of Acharya Shri Vidyasagarji - this Young Jaina Award was first instituted in the year 2001 at Shivpuri (M.P.) on the auspicious occasion of the 2600th birth anniversary of Bhagwan Mahavir.
