FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK
Dear Reader,
Jai Jinendra!
This season brings a renewed sense of purpose and possibility at the International School for Jain Studies (ISJS). As we continue to uphold the principle of svadhyayah paramam tapah (self-study is the supreme austerity), we are pleased to share new opportunities for learning, research, and global engagement.
Applications are now open for the 8th International Winter School for Jain Studies, a 10-day online program that invites participants from all walks of life to explore Jain philosophy, ethics, and culture. This program offers a meaningful introduction to the Jain way of life.
We also invite scholars to submit papers for the upcoming conference on "Holistic Wellbeing: Jain Perspective," jointly organized by Sumandeep Vidyapeeth, ISJS and Vardhaman Charitable Foundation. This interdisciplinary event will explore how Jain principles can contribute to health, mindfulness, and ethical living in today's world.
ISJS is also offering two Research Fellow positions for those eager to contribute to Jain scholarship and outreach. We welcome applications from qualified candidates who share our commitment to rigorous research and cultural preservation.
The establishment of the Tirthankar Shantinath Endowed Professorship in Jain Studies at Rice University, USA is a historic milestone. This achievement reflects the growing global recognition of Jain thought and the strength of community support.
Our latest issue of ISJS-Transactions and the Speak Up article on Jain Satis highlight the vibrant contributions of our scholars and associates. We invite you to read, reflect, and share your own insights with us.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we continue to build a legacy of learning, compassion, and clarity.
