SandeepJi

Sandeepji’s lecture talked about how our temple culture has been destroyed systematically.

These two lectures are not about learning. It is about awakening. What do we ask ourselves when we wake up with a jolt – Was the nightmare real, What do I do now that I am awake?

That’s all, these are the only simple and relevant questions. We have lived through and are living through a nightmare. Hopefully it will end or we will be conscious enough not to let the nightmares repeat.

Each question, as usual, has only one correct answer, but multiple implications.

You can take this quiz as many times as you want.

The picture above is a panel of Jain Tirthankaras. This is in Gwalior. Each Tirthankara is just stamp size, probably an inch square. If you look closely, you will see how barbaric and meticulous the invaders were. They chiseled out the face of each of the Tirthankaras, just the face; and left the body and the rest of the panel intact. In one blow they could have broken the whole panel, it is just 2 feet by 1 1/2 feet. But they didn’t. They chose to deface, just to let us know how much we are hated.
