Munishri Tarun Sagarji

Munishri Tarunsagarji is the revolutionary Jain Monk of 21st Century. He does not give his Pravachans in Jain temples. He says, "I want to escape from the temples. That is why I have stopped giving pravachans in your temples. I give Pravachans in the squares of roads, because I want to see Mahavir out of temples. My only wish is to free Mahavir from the hands of Jains, and want to spread his thoughts in masses". He is doing what he says. Jain Munishri Tarun Sagarji shows the world how a Muni could spread Jainism in masses without showing any miracles.
