Here’s a poem wishing you a happy Mahavir Jayanti:
In the land of Jains, a festival of great fame, Mahavir Jayanti, the day of his name. To the last Tirthankara, we pay homage and respect, And follow his teachings, in our every aspect.
Born in Kundagram, he grew up to be, A preacher of non-violence, and set all living beings free. The mother saw dreams, before his arrival, Of a great soul to come, for the world’s revival.
On this holy day, let’s come together, In devotion to Mahavir, our guru and teacher. Let’s meditate on his words, and seek enlightenment, And follow the path of ahimsa, in every moment.
Hail Mahavir, the lord of peace, May his teachings guide us, and never cease. Let’s spread love and harmony, and follow his way, And celebrate his birth, on this auspicious day.
