Jainism is not just a religion, its a way to live life, a peaceful and happy life as told by our Jineshwar bhagwan.

Pathshala is one of the strongest mediums to communicate the message of our Jineshwar.
Path means lesson and shala means place. Its a place where one learns to live a happy life with quality.

Jem ke kumbhar bhini mati mathi saras ghado banave che tem pathshala pan nana balkomana guno and sanskaro na sinchanthi sushrawak banave che.

Our JCCA pathshala is a channel to deliver knowledge of our agams with morals and values. The aim of our pathshala is to impart knowledge of Jainism to the younger generation and to promote values of non voilence, compassion and spiritual growth.

When a baby is born we must have a clear vision to raise him/her in a proper manner and subsequently we must go on with earnest effort to accomplish our vision. These days technology has changed the lives of the human society. We see good and bad effects if this on our younger generation. So to avoid the bad effects, we need pathshalas that give them good atmoshphere, teach them good behaviour conduct, morals and values which shall later turn into their lifestyle and help them lead a peaceful, happy and satisfied life

We started our first class with Pa Pa Pagli.
Here 6 year old little kids gets basic knowledge on our jinsehwar and on jainism. We strengthen their roots with good conduct, appropriate behaviour (Uchit acharan) and virtues (Guno nu sinchan) right from early childhood. We teach them appropriate behaviour (Koni sathe kevu achran karvu joye) as it is the basic necessity now for the children’s better life later.

We have about 18 classes divided as per course and years. Course starts from navkar to jivvichar and nactatva. This is taught with proper understanding in their mother tounge. Apart from the academic curriculums, we jabe extra activities like shibir during holidays and performances around paryushan. They learn to do aangi, perform in a play and dances for bhakti. We have approximately 160 children in our pathshala now.

We are proud to see our children who have been brought up in a luxurious and comfortable envoirment doinf adhariyu and upadhan tap with utkrusht bhaav about 10 kids did adhariya and two kids did updhan tap. We feel blessed to see pratikraman being lead and conducted by our kids. Many kids do ayubil and oli with kriya.

This JCCA pathshala was first started by …… and their pioneers are the strongest pillars of our pathshala.
