- As part of the Master's Degree in Yoga Studies Program at Loyola Marymount University, students travel to India to experience Yoga's motherland first-hand and to study Jainism. One student was particularly impressed by the Jain religion and what it has to offer all people, Jain or non-Jain. This is her story.

i am not jain but i have many jain friends, they r so nice and kind. its world's most peaceful religion. jai jinendra
Very nice. Please read 34 supers of Bhagwan Mahavir commented by me just now.
Jainism integral part of hinduism jai jinendra jai shri krishna jai shri. Ram jai mahaveer swamy jai. Shiv shambhu jai ganeshay namah jai mata ji 🙏🚩🚩🚩
Being a Hindu, I started following Jainism principles which I learnt from my Jain friends.. Not to eat after sunset, left non veg food, non violence principle, in restaurants too I order Jain food and it tastes better (no onion, no garlic)...ALL THANKS TO MY JAIN FRIENDS, from them I learnt many things
Hat's of to you man. ❤️
Me too recovered after stopping eating at night
Jainism is not only a religion but it's an art of living peacefully.
As we say *LIVE AND LET LIVE* 🙏🏻
Not a jain but always follow principles of this religion
Thank you for this lovely video. I discovered Jainism in early 2014, while I was transitioning to veganism, and I have been an aspiring follower ever since. Unfortunately, the Jain Center is 3 1/2 hours away from my house, but there are many excellent resources now online to learn about all aspects of Jainism, and I have even become friends with several Jains in India and elsewhere through Facebook and Twitter. iTunes also has a good selection of Jain devotional music (which is how I memorized the Navkar Mantra). I would love to see Jainism spread in the west. Thank you again!
Thank you for your heartfelt comment. Perhaps when Allison Bergson is back online she will also respond. She is currently in India studying Jainism and teaching yoga. Thanks again. -- Kija
Excellent! Maybe another video about her experience?
+Pidgie अहिंसा Freeland Yes.she's brought a video camera with her! :)
Jainism&Hinduism r the only answer to the Waring world with only Vegitarianism&Non violence at its center,because the type of food we all eat goes to our brain & body wich mostly goes in our behavior.
Most of western,Middle east,far east cultures promote Non-vegitarian food wich has direct connection to vast varities of crimes & wars.

Hey any help u need to be a Jain..u are welcome here!!
Well done Allison! Jainism would resonate with many progressive and ethically aware westerners (vegans, animal/nature lovers, etc.), but unfortunately very few know about it. That's why I think it should be actively promoted in Europe and America. And as one of the speakers said, Jainism has answers to many modern and future problems that we are facing today.
Denis La Minaccia, you make such an important point. My lifelong fascination with religion has led to what I consider an above average understanding of the world's different beliefs & practices. Yet, I hadn't consciously heard of Jainism before this morning. As a vegan scientist whose career has been suffered extensively due to my beliefs I'm truly inspired to learn more and share this message!
The current president of PETA at US grew up in Delhi and was inspired by Jains to fight for animal rights!
True

@@juanesteban8827 Jainism is an atheist religion, they worship Tirthankars who attained salvation, it works on karma concept.. Karma is nothing but energy attached to your soul, when you do bad karma, your soul energy goes down and gets binded by karma. So jains follow rigorous fasting as way to burn karma... Whenever you do fasting, yoga, pranayam ur repressed emotions from subconscious mind comes up, you experinece emotion like anxiety, anger etc which were stuck in ur subconscious.. Also eating non veg food is not only violence, but Those emotions of animals when they see death goes inside ur body.. Thats why they follow non violence strictly... Also after sunset they don't eat cz there is scientific explanation too, ur digestive power decreases after sunset and food gets digested before you go to sleep, thus giving enough time for body to repair the cells at night when u sleep.. Also microorganisms increases in food after sunset, so not to eat after sunset(again same non violence principle and same logic of not eating non veg).. Their tirthankars who got enlightened they passed this knowledge to people, after spiritual awakening one can see many things because your third eye opens.. Same concept like matrix movie, we live in 3D world.. So all this Jainism, Buddhism and Hinduism mainly works on these concepts passed down from awakened people.. Hence they say it's not religion, it's a way of life.. Yoga pranayam is there in Jainism, Buddhism, Hinduism...
Jainisn is based on philosophy; lets live and let other live.others means animals, insects etc.. i like their philosophy. I am a hindu from Nepal🇳🇵🇳🇵
Thank you for your comment. :)
Jai. Jinendra. Ji. 🙏🙏
Jainism is the sister religion of Hinduism and Buddhism. Lord Buddha also learnt from jains then realised and started the middle path. Mahavira and Buddha were contemporaries
I am a jain and proud to be a jain Om Arham
@@00DP SHUT UP YOU IDIOT.
B 12 is also from milk and milk is not non veg according to us. Because you're non veg Corona is spreding so don't worry we best have have best seaman capibilty lot and we don't show of ok
@@00DP 😂😂😂
Oh my god...all other jain people are reproducing since centuries ago. With that very same diet!
I am an American atheist. I think Jainism is the most ethical of all religions from what I have read. From what little I know it's ethics seem similar in many ways to secular humanism. It's odd how the ethics of one of the worlds oldest if not the oldest religion can seem so relevant and modern today. You were so lucky to be able to study there. I don't know any Jains in real life but I look forward some day to making many Jain friends
Samuel Pope Jainism is an ancient science yet to be explored by modern world
world is moving towards it very fast
Pradeep M Dhalawat I have had good friends that were Muslims, Sikhs and Hindus but I don't think I have ever actually met a Jain before. I didn't know anything about Jainism until several years ago I came across some RUclips videos by an atheist author/speaker called Sam Harris. He was talking about Islam's claim to be a religion of peace and how specious that claim was for various reasons and especially in light of the fact that there really is a religion of peace called Jainism. He went on to describe how, no matter how seriously overboard a Jain took their religion they could never become a terrorist. It got me interested in finding out more because like I said before I had never heard of Jainism. I really don't know much about it other than what I have read and seen online but from what I have read you can rightfully be very proud of your tradition. I would never be able to be a good Jain. I am way to violent and I like meat too much (I am working on those things) but I do admire a lot about the Jains and their system of ethics. For example, I find the Jain teaching of non absolutism to be very interesting. I previously thought that non-absolutism was a modern idea. The world needs to adopt Jainism or at a minimum Jain like ethics or we will be in for some very bad times. If I ever do meet a Jain in real life I would go out of my way to make friends.
from today I m one of your jain Friend
now ,me also your one of jain friend.
Samuel Pope
If you want to know more about jainism you can ask me.
I can help as much as know.☺
I am so glad to see that some people are practicing Jainism like you and specially when many Jains are converting to other religions maybe due to they are not aware about their own religion very well or maybe they feel uncomfortable for many reasons. Well Jainism is not at all any religion and it is way of life, also it actually says there shall not be any religion at all. Jainism and Buddhism is the only two religion which do not believe in God created Universe. Many people says Jainism is a branch of Hindism but that's not true. India's original name Bharat came from Jainism. Keep it up and Jai Jinendra. 😊🙏
_"Jainism and Buddhism is the only two religion which do not believe in God created Universe"_
that's likely a myth arising from possible misinterpretation of Buddha's sayings
problem is the original texts are lost (pali sources are the closest thing)
Jainism is just superb religion of the world. Allison you are very lucky to have inclination towards Jainism. We are all devine and purpose or the goal is to menifest this devine within and become free from all worldly attachments and attain moksh. Infinite souls have attained Pancham gati that is Moksh and at presant attaining Moksh gati from other kshetras and in future infinite souls will attain Moksh. Shrimad RAJCHDRA said satpursho nu yogbal jagat nu kalyan karo. I will like you to read biography of SHRIMAD RAJCHANDRA and his teachings. He was superhuman of our era. Must read Gandhi's 27 questions to SHRIMAD RAJCHANDRA. Thanks may your faith remain and keep up the good work
Thank you Viren. I appreciate this.
Jai jinendra
I am a Devout Buddhist but I wish to incorporate Jain Principles and Practices in my Life.
Spearmax 222 actually Buddhism is a part of Jainism which originated after mahavir svami
If u want to know more abt it u can go to our maharaj saheb(saint of Jains)
SUCHI SHAH but weren’t Jains a lot against Lord Buddha and his followers back then those days?
@@spearmax2222 i know dear
But thats just a totally wrong belief
But Jains were never involved with violence
@@spearmax2222 I have read many buddist scriptures they mentioned that Buddha initially followed jain principles but they were too tough for him so he choosed a middle way and originated Buddhism
after watching these video I just decided to left engineering and join jain university to study jainism in deep
Which University? Can you please tell me
@@aatmanmehta6712 I have not left my engineering . but I wanted to go to the pandit todarmal at jaipur
@@aatmanmehta6712 u could go to any Jain marasaheb
Btw the jain university is in Delhi
@@rahulpatil3297 Pandit todarmal at jaipur -The right place to go. Absolutely fantastic !
Great News!
#Jain syllabus to be included in the curriculum of 40 universities in USA. Proposed by #JAINA organization, Jainism is what the world needs today! Teaching the value of Ahimsa/Non Violence will help curb the increasing Gun #violence in USA.
Going Vegan & Vegetarian is a trend in foreign countries. Similarly, teaching the ethics of Jain religion like Ahimsa (non violence), Asteya (non stealing), Aparigrah (non attachment), Satya (truth) will help people become more Tolerant & Compassionate towards other lives.
I love this. Religion and spirituality is something I’ve always greatly wrestled with in life. I know I heard of jainism at some point I think maybe in high school? I grew up christian, then became buddhist, then wiccan, then briefly muslim😂 it was a rough ride. while wiccan I met my now husband who is a Jain from Mumbai. His great great (great?) grandfather was Raghavji Gandhi. I didn’t like it at first because I was still attached to the idea of a creator God. Now though I am diving well deep into jainism although I had already been practicing ahimsa and was vegan long before I knew of jainism. I grew up in a meat eating place and I always felt so strongly against it that I turned away from it as soon as I was out of my parents home. It was lovely to see your story 🙏🏼
SilverStream Eclipse how is it possible for you not getting brainwashed by islamic theology for the brief period you practice islam???🤔🤔🤔😂
Kiran Kumar Sahoo sorry but I don’t say negative things about other people’s beliefs :)
Ashlyn Lawson - good on you!
other thn jains r also willing to knw what is Jainism in depth .. thats amazing..good support by Usa Jainism centre & Rajasthan Dharamshala...thanks all
I am muslim but follow.strict jain diet plan no roots no nonveg not to eat after sunset
@Love, peace and vegetarian girl thanks mam
I appretiate it bro. Jainism is not just a religion.
It is a way of leaving life peacefully.
It's really appreciating!
That’s grt.👏🏼👏🏼
Then you can be called the jain
Its heartning to know that you have been following the principles of Jainism. No doubt many westrenners are Jains because Jainism teaches the Fine Art Of Living. It dwells in length Time Management, Ecology, Astronomy, Pure Science, Geography and disciplined way of life.
i am so glad you are speaking about Jainism it should be really more wide spread in the west for sure ! thank you
Thank you Sara6! I cannot take all the credit for this. I must thank our professor, Chris Chapple, who has really educated all of us at LMU about Jainism and brought many professors, practitioners and experts to our University. And I also thank Allison Bergson who shared her story. Thank you again for your positive comment.
She's probably gonna be the first white American Jain
Yes sara
Being a Jain, it's nice to see knowledge about Jainism spreading across the world. It isn't limited to being vegetarianism and non violence. Yes, it's way beyond that :) reading few books will change our life. The temples are worth visiting, but sadly majority of them were overtaken by other Kings, religions (Taj Mahal, Tirupati Balaji) Today too, we find statues of God during pipeline installation on roads, digging wells; statues-which were buried underground many years ago. Ultimately, teachings are what matter us the most. Read, read and improve lives around us. Let peace be around us :)
@D L Read this. It is life changing

This story tells me more than just about a religion, it's about the way she followed the flow of life. She got out of her former life just by doing step by step what she felt like resonating with her inspiration of the moment.
I can't believe you went to ladnun... the university was founded by my grand dad on the behest of gurudev tulsi and so pleasantly surprised to see it here.
Thank you! This has been very helpful. Looking forward to learning and studying. I am naturally attracted to the practice.
Hi you are one of the best follower of Jainism, being Jain by birth is not a jain, but connection of heart & soul is said to be Jain, God bless you dear.
Thank you
True
Proud to be a jain
Every one is bonded with karma
this bondege can be ended
right vision
right knowledge
right conduct
these three gems can be applied in every step of life
such a great religion doing selfless services whitout converting
Today Jainism is meeting losses. Persons like you are in very need for Jainism and pity for living beings.
Superb work Allison .. i was born Jain but really tried to understand it and read about it since last 8-10 yrs .. with a very open mind i have read about many religions of the world in the process also .. but i think the more people become extremist in the other religion they become violent but the more people become extremist the jainism they become more peaceful ..
Proud to be jain
Jai jinendra.ji. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹
Jai Jinendra
I proud to be Jain
Thank you keep posting such numerous foreign devotees journey in jainism. Love from India.
Wow great video. I am a jain and honestly I would like to suggest to plz go through some digambar books also if those are available out there. You will get a great knowledge plus some of the values are slightly different as explained by swetambers but surely you gonna love it.
swasti Goyal Lord Krishna loves you
why are you people so envious of jainism . the topic is on Jainism, and how did krishna suddenly pop in . a community of around i billion feeling uneasy by the discussion of jainism by a white american , which is followed by mere 4 million people, seems quite strange.

Mumukshus are the ones who are yet to renounce their worldly lives to become a Samni or Sadhvi (Female Gurus) and Sadhu (Male Gurus)
Samnis are ones who can travel across the world to preach about Jain values.
Awesome to see, from a fellow western jain
are you following Jainism?
Yes. Although I don't eat dairy because cows die in basically everywhere but india and i do eat root vegetables

Lots of love to u my sister Allison❤️
Jainism is the oldest religion in the world, based on the teachings of Ahimsa(Non-Violence) or reverence for all living beings.
There is NO creator .The universe is eternal and the earth we live in , is just a small spec in comparison . Non-Violence, Truth, Celibacy, Non-Stealing, Non-Possessiveness are few of the main beliefs. The Jain cuisine is completely vegetarian and also excludes underground vegetables such as potato, garlic, onion etc, to prevent injuring small insects and microorganisms, and also to prevent the entire plant getting uprooted and killed. There are about 4 million Jains in the world. Their aim is to achieve liberation of the soul (becoming God themselves ) by not being born again in another body. Jains believe this can be achieved through a life devoted to non-violence,compassion and the rejection of possessions. It does NOT derive from Hinduism, Budhism or any other faiths. It’s always been there since time (forever). Beside the 24 Thirthankers , 608 souls achieve Moksh every 6 months. They are all Gods - They achieve eternal peace and can know the past ,present and future all at once, but they have no desire to.
In meditation about a month ago I had a vision that was profound.
All religions, all praise and thanks to all religious deities is heard, and is registered. It explained that the vision that we have of a deity in our mind's eye is but a miniscule representation of the bliss generated by the all that is the deity.
Whatever image, or effigy of the said deity the prayor may visualize, all of them exist, they are real, and they exist in the present. (Visualize a quartz crystal shard of unlimited size. At the very point of the shard is the image of a deity one prays to, or thinks of. Just beyond the image of the deity and in the shard is every reference, every thought, every utterance in every language encapsulated.)
There was more, but this was but just a part of the vision. In searching for a meaning, Jainism came up in Google.
@@nomebear That's amazing ! In Jainism , there is a place called the samosharan. It means ("Refuge to All") and is the divine preaching hall of the Tirthankara(Gods) This is where the Sidh Bhagwan (God) sits and releases his OM cry three times a day. There are all kind of creatures, kings, angles , animals, who listen to this OM message and all understand in their own languages. We have all been there at some point in our past lives, but have forgotten in this world. There are a few people who have actually remembered their past lives and confirmed that they have been there and heard this direct knowledge . It’s deep and to understand this level , a study of Digamber Jainism is absolutely necessary.
@@manishshah2264 A study of Jainism. We no longer need to have the division of swetamber or digambar. Views may vary but the idea on all levels is same
@@nehaljain8504 There was never a division in real Jainism. Each one for himself, however the right path to Moksh is only through following Digamber Jainism. Before Mahvir Bhagwan, there was only Digambar Jain. Swetabar Sect arised due to the 12 years of terrible drought in Mahavirs time. People could not bear the drought and were going mad, When Munis’s came to their houses to ask for alms, they could not feed them and threw stones at them etc. Also people could not stand them being naked etc and therefore those munis started to cover themselves from being beaten up. There is a lot of differences in both belief systems.
@@manishshah2264 I understand that Jainism was a fully digambar sect but this is kalyug and I don't think any person in this age is capable of attaining moksh today(even them being digambar) Even if swetamber monks wear white clad they in their right minds are detached from it which is the main purpose of this act. In today's age when jainism is already thriving hard to exist because of oppression it is better to join hands and preach be it mandir wale or sthanakwasi or terapanthi or digambar or swetamber or any other sect. The main goal of every little sect is peace and compassion. The main idea is always to spread the word of Bhagwan Mahavira swamiji. It isn't about which is the right way to liberation or which is the true form...it is more about unity and faith in the ideology.
those who want peaceful life they should follow jainism. .....
I love this
Its way of life. The most peaceful religion.
sanyam shah peaceful but absurd and they don't have real humanity Jain will not construct water well or water reservoir when end last time of shravak they will not give water person will die without water they will perform bhutyagna means shradh karma so many Jain have pitrudosha in horoscope they follow vaidic mantras om Hreem klim this is in Vedas coward most or followers of this philosophy
Elephant 03 abe kya bol reha he pagal he kya
Elephant 03 we belong to shatriya vansh and if it required to fight for some thing we fight
Robert I don't think that dead man on stick story was even true. what you mean kids burnt alive? you mean you like dead people? you must belong to the most shittiest religion in world aka islam or Hinduism or its like.
No black person or even Asian person or white person has converted to Jainism. And Jains tend to be physically weak
Wonderful! I enjoyed and learned lot more from her video. Understanding by someone who has no pre-concieved notion.
Jai Jinendra 🙏🏻🌺
Fantastic video! Great story! Thanks for making this. I really am fascinated by the Jain monks adherence to simplicity they walk Barefoot, they have simple clothes, simple possession the community sustains them. They are very conscious of personal and public hygiene. though I wish they brushed their teeth. But, I also wish these monks inspired their community merchants from abstaining from trading in environmentally violent products like plastic, chemicals and oil.
This is a really good point. There are a lot of conflicts in all religions- there is a jain vegan initiative that is addressing this. Sometimes tradition overpowers what is ethically sound, even in a religion that preaches nonviolence. I have a blog jainsaysblog.wordpress.com/ where I write about my reflections in light of jain and yogic philosophy.
Jai jinendra
I like very much Jainism
beautiful and inspiring! Thank you for sharing and may your journey continue and with much blessings =)
Thank you!
This is awesome. You're a G.
Thank you
I'm glad we have the opportunity to learn violent religions as well as NON VIOLENT.

No food after 6pm. What's the food timings they follow
@@japsltd sunset time. Which varies everyday.. But after sunset not to eat food.. There is scientific explanation also, ur digestive power decreases after sunset, so for good digestion before you sleep, it's better to eat before sunset.. And second reason is microorganisms increase in food after sunset, so they don't want to harm them and incur bad karma
good to see this

These are your punya karma .

Hello Jay - I am the filmmaker and I'm American. As far as I know Allison is American.
@@Kmanhare okay thanks, is she completely jain now?
@@jaydugad9440 Hi Jay. To answer your question, I can't speak for her. But I know she really resonated to much of the Jain teachings.
Sanatana Dharma leads to Omniscience IMHO, only coz it's approach and freedom towards Yoga and Meditation and ability to evolve creatively without strict rules to not believe in a God makes it more flexible. If you check out simulated universe theory, it has strong connections with ancient sanatana dharma and Patanjali's yogic way of life. Those ancient yogis and saints had designed the way of life for humanity to evolve to literally win the virtual game we call the universe.
Be excellent to each other and party on, dude.
so have u completely become a jain monk

Nice
i didnt know i was jain.people laugh at me when i save beatles earthworms or snails and slugs from being stomped.im from albania and didnt know about this religion.im an atheist who loves all creatures flora and fauna and non violent.not a big fan of tchnology or modernism because of consequences it brings in enviroment.wish there were a lot less people around and more forests with no pollution.im kidding when i say i am a jain.
You should more dig into Jainism Sister. It's literally the most peaceful and non violent religion in the world...even with such a long history.
I was born into a Jain family. I feel like I am the luckiest on the Earth! It's great caring about even the insects and other microorganisms. It's a great feeling to protect the other organisms instead of stomping them to show a false sense of pride or superiority!❤️
Jains are also atheistic

May I convert you to my freethinker faith? I do not believe in an omnipotent either. I like you! This is much better than islam, but I believe more in my own freethinkers belief! NOT every religion is good, usually bad! You have to fight for individual freedom, not for the freedom of a system!
DARK NEWS jainism IS about freedom of self...and also is against blind faith and advertising the religion to gain followers
Jain dharm is d Sanatan dharm.
irony is indoamericans still complaining about India have shame
the Tamizh Samanam is the mother of Jainism...
Yahqappu Adaikkalam ,only after 2nd century Jainism comes to Tamil nadu, there no such thing as Tamil samanam, samanam term used in south India to all non vedic religion as per Tamil nool, thivagara negandu. Jainism was well established in north even before the lord Buddha. Jainism not originated from Tamil nadu it is utter lie propagated by some Tamil chauvinist . I am Tamil but I hate Tamil chauvinism
