MAHAVIR JAYANTI – HOLIDAY
April 10

Dear Students and Parents,
On the auspicious occasion of Mahavir Jayanti, Bharat Academy & Sciences will remain closed as we honor the birth anniversary of Lord Mahavir, the 24th Tirthankara of Jainism. More than just a holiday, this day is an opportunity for us to reflect on his timeless teachings of non-violence, truth, and self-discipline.
Lord Mahavir’s principles of Ahimsa (non-violence), Satya (truthfulness), and Aparigraha (simplicity) are not just religious values but universal lessons that shape us into better human beings. His message encourages us to practice compassion, honesty, and respect for all living beings, which are essential virtues in today’s world.
As we enjoy this day, let us take a moment to embrace these values in our daily lives—whether through small acts of kindness, being honest in our words and actions, or controlling our desires for unnecessary things. Education is not just about knowledge but about character-building, and Lord Mahavir’s teachings give us a path to follow.
Let’s make this holiday meaningful by practicing peace, patience, and positivity in our lives.
Wishing you all a Happy and Enlightening Mahavir Jayanti!
