This is a personal account of a summer program I attended in New
Delhi during the summer of 2010. It describes the obstacles,
preparations and lived experiences of the program I attended. It
explains what I learned, hope to pass on to others who may be
traveling to the area and most of all what were the most rewarding
parts of my experience. Jainism is one of the world's smallest and
oldest religious comunities. The Jain community has shown
considerable tenacity, not necessarily in spreading their religion
in the form of conversion but in spreading their message and
doctrine of ahimsa (non- violence). This summer school of Jain
studies is just one way that the Jain community have accomplished
this. I also hope to spread some of the Jain values through this
book, and also hope to offer valuable insights to any person
thinking of traveling to India.
