Your video has just reminded me that I haven't been to the Derasar for a couple of months...and I am a Jain! I am sharing this video on my Groups ! Thank you!
@@prachi_jain0106 , I don't have much idea, but perhaps you can figure it out... My parents come from 2 different villages near Jamnagar. I was born in Kenya, and so was my father. We are known as Halari Visa Oshwals.
Jain temples are rich in art and history, one of the oldest yet most prosperous Jain community is known to have preserve their thousands years old culture unaltered to this date. Truly non-violent and peaceful religion and it's reflected in everything related to Jainism be it temple or a Jain laymen. Quite ancient to Buddhism and quite parellel to Hinduism this religion find its roots in even pre-vedic era. I'm glad that such a beautiful temple exists in UK, there are many grand temples like this in United States but it's pleasing to see this derasar of potters bar standing so beautifully with all its glory.
Wonderful Video, Lali...Some additional information to add to what you described - Derasar - It is what Gujarati community calls Jain Temples. The word is probably derivation of Devgraha-vasara (meaning Residence of Gods) - The Jain philosophy believes time to move in eternal cycles, with each cycle being considered a cosmic age. Each cosmic age would have 24 Tirthankaras (Tirthankar means somebody, who has conquered the cycles of life and death, and now has the knowledge to help lead others to that). The number 24 is pre-determined, and governed by position of celestial objects. Hence, exactly 24 (Neither less, nor more). In the current cosmic age, Rishabhdeva is considered the 1st and Mahavira the 24th. That being said, for Jains, all Tirthankaras are important in their own right, A possible reason for Mahavira to be considered more important (More true for Non-Jains, than Jains) may be that there are some evidences of his presence on earth, in terms of recorded history. He's a contemporary of Gautam Buddha, and has more evidences of presence. The others are farther back in time, in pre-historic era as well. - The temple where you went to, has idols, with eyes open, and idols with crowns. This is generally in case of Shwetambara Temples. Digambara Temples have idols without crowns, and eye closed (Digambaras, and Shwetambaras are two main groups within Jainism, and both of them have further sub-groups, some of whom believe in idol-worship and some that do not). So, this, in all likelihood would be a Shwetambara temple - The innermost sanctum, is generally closed to all, except for Pooja (or worship), by those following a strict protocol. The protocols govern what should be prayer clothes, and how you should prepare before coming for Pooja. - Ahinsa (Non-Violence) is more of a philosophy, extending to all areas of life. It of course, means, not killing living beings (the simplest manifestation), but also means non-wastage of food (It is believed, that there is some inevitable hinsa in food preparation, and as way to limit that, there's emphasis on not wasting food). Thanks for the wonderful upload!
Wow thanks so much for those amazing insights, I really enjoyed reading all of it. Non-wastage of food is very important, too much gets wasted in supermarkets restaurants and people’s homes. 😦
Jainism is the only religion with purity and very close to nature. If the world need to prosper then Jainism is the only option. 5 main principals are secret to live peacefully.

लाली, मैं भी आपका एक प्रशंसक हूं । मुझे आप एक अच्छे ह्रदय की स्वामिनी लगती हैं, जिस पर प्रभु की कृपा है । ये आपकी मुख की आकृति में झलकता है । ईश्वर आप पर कृपा बनाए रखें । प्रयागराज भारत ।☝️👍👍🙏👏👏
6:40, Eggplants is not eaten by jains. Even though it is a plant, but it contains a whole lot of seeds and that's why its prohibited and not eaten by Jains.
hi lali i'm a jain myself it is among the oldest religion in india there were numerous jain king in the past like amoghvarsha kharvela indra chandra gupta maurya samprati rani abbakka king kon pandiyan and many more it was all over india in the ancient times still there are some jain exist but due to persecution and invasion jains are very less now thanks for visting jain temple
Most of lali's audience is open minded and accepting of all. But there is a small section of religious nuts plaguing the comment section. I hope these people have a serious look at themselves and understand that the entire world isn't black and white. Lali you are awesome❤️❤️ keep it up
Lali weldone for showcasing this very beautiful temple, very impressively spoken hindi too. I ❤ this very beautiful and peaceful temple. Veganism and respect for all animals, environment are very much practiced by jains. Look up temple buildings and how they are built, its very interesting as well as the Ahimsa hand that points you in the direction to the temple.
This is beautiful!!!...the carved architecture reminds me Dilwara Temple in Mount Abu, India..had a chance to visit the temple during my boarding school days there..Dilwara however was entirely of white marble.. 🙃 one of closest friend is Rajasthani Jain and I love and the food they make at home no potatoes, onions, garlic etc...the satvic feel 🥰 so tastyyy...
Good question… I’m not really sure actually! I heard only recently that they do not eat garlic or potato or onion. I think first time I heard about Jains perhaps someone commented on a video asking me to go to a Jain temple.
I'm very proud of the fact that Jainism Buddhism Hinduism Sikhism all 4 Sanatani religions originated in Our motherland BHAARAT. And All other religions also flourished in India
Hey Lali great to see you again. Jai jinender if you ever come to india delhi. let us know. me nd my family we take you to many jain temples near by. nd brief you about our history nd religion.
Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism is the branch of Sanatan Dharma Sanatan Dharma is the the root of this Dharma❤️❤️❤️ These all are born from mother land India🙏
A few years ago, I was invited to a Jain wedding. I was really apprehensive but really enjoyed the whole experience, including the Jain food. I made a few new Guji friends! Who were very much surprised at my guji fluency. Thanks again for opening up different cultures to your audience. “We are far more united and have far more in common with each other than things that divide us.” Jo Cox (2015)
The respect towards all religions make you a Curing women considering you as a content to lordship❤️❤️. You are really used to be a faithfull person with no religion descrimination.Thanks lord for making equality for religion awareness. ❤️❤️
For some reason after the learning the word not so long ago it never escaped my brain so I wanted to use it in a video 😀 actually my old teacher Ratnesh ji taught me that word.
@@LondonkiLali good, it sounded amazing. Have you ever considered reading any classic Hindi novels? I suggest you start with short stories of author Premchand. His stories are an entire universe of their own.
@@LondonkiLali well novels are meant to make good use of the language they are written in, so they might seem a little hard at First. Premchand was born in colonial India and his works are very useful in understanding how life was in the colonial era. His works have had a very deep impact on me. His short stories of barely 5 pages have made me cry like a little baby. Premchand is regarded as the best modern hindi writer. There are animated versions of his stories available on youtube, these videos are targetted at kids, so I think the language used in them will be easy to understand. I hope you give it a try. Keep going lali ji. You are doing well🔥🔥
Excellent video Lali. The temple and its surroundings look fabulous. Slight correction with respect to the diet that Jains follow. Jains are not necessarily vegan by their tenets unless there are some that do it out of personal choice. Generally, Jains do consume milk and milk products so they are vegetarian, though not vegan in the strictest sense of the term.
@london ki Lali, thought I would say, Jains can be vegans like anyone else and their diet is very similar to veganism, I think the difference is dairy. I googled before commenting to double check and believe jains can consume dairy as part of their religion. Thanks for a great video by the way. best wishes from Luton Bedfordshire
Your video has just reminded me that I haven't been to the Derasar for a couple of months...and I am a Jain!
I am sharing this video on my Groups !
Thank you!
Awww thank you for sharing! Really appreciate it ☺️ it was a beautiful place I very much enjoyed it.
@push sha, Jains follows surname, from which sect of Jain you belong?
@@prachi_jain0106 , I don't have much idea, but perhaps you can figure it out...
My parents come from 2 different villages near Jamnagar. I was born in Kenya, and so was my father. We are known as Halari Visa Oshwals.
@@pushsplace I think you belong to shwetamber Jains..as my few friends have same surname
@@nidhijain9564 I see....
I am headed to the Oshwal Centre next Sunday...so will be visiting the derasar too.
So happy to see our Jain culture being preserved by our fellow Jainism people living in England.

Lali When did you first hear about Jain sect because very few people know about this sect outside India
Good question… I’m not really sure actually! I heard only recently that they do not eat garlic or potato or onion. I think first time I heard about Jains perhaps someone commented on a video asking me to go to a Jain temple.
I'm very proud of the fact that Jainism Buddhism Hinduism Sikhism all 4 Sanatani religions originated in Our motherland BHAARAT. And All other religions also flourished in India
the five principles of jainism is borrowed from yama and niyama the eight limbs of yoga in patanjali yog sutras.
Very gorgeous views
