Vyavasthapan Samiti
The sixteen-day period of vrat and tap ahead of Das Lakshan Parva begins on 1 September and continues through 16 September, with each of the sixteen causes reflected upon in turn. Devotees observing the vrat are welcome to join daily darshan and puja at the mandir through this period. See the festival calendar on the Events page for details.
The ten-day Das Lakshan Parva, the holiest period of the Digambar year, runs from 17 to 26 September this year. Each day is dedicated to one of the ten supreme virtues, with prabhat pheri at 5:30 am, abhishek at 7:00 am, shanti-dhara at 8:30 am, nitya puja at 9:00 am, and aarti with pravachan at 7:30 pm. The full sangh is invited to join for any or all of the ten days.

Darshan hours are adjusted during Das Lakshan Parva (17 to 26 September) to accommodate the larger daily gathering. The exact revised timing for this year is confirmed closer to the date and will be posted here and at the mandir entrance; devotees planning a visit during the festival are requested to check at the counter on the day.
Das Lakshan Parva closes with Kshamavani Parva on 27 September, the day of universal forgiveness, with samuhik kshamavani at 8:00 am. The same day, a palkhi sets out from the mandir to Shri Kshetra Nasaigarh, where abhishek and pujan are performed before it returns. Devotees are welcome to walk with the palkhi.
The shikhar and the sabha mandap are due for restoration, and the structural assessment that will settle the scope of the work is underway. The committee invites contributions from the sangh towards the jirnoddhar nidhi. Devotees wishing to contribute are requested to get in touch with the trust office or to write in over WhatsApp; details are also on the Jirnoddhar page.
