Jain Marriage Ceremony Puja – A Sacred Union with Purity and Dharma

“Vivah is not just a bond of two individuals but a spiritual union of two souls committed to the path of truth, ahimsa, and dharma.” 🙏

The Jain wedding ceremony, also known as “Vivaah Sanskar”, is deeply rooted in simplicity, spirituality, and adherence to Jain principles. It avoids excessive rituals and emphasizes inner purity, commitment, and blessings of Tirthankaras.
