2021 JAINA Convention Sessions Each speaker was good in what they delivered, but I liked Sister Shivani the most who in a very simple and effective way taught us how to energize our day and live happily. --- Anonymous, MD, USA
Almost all of the sessions were thought provoking and provided good insight, from the microscopic session with Nandigosh Suri to the holistic approach by Namramuni. --- Nimesh Chheda, MD, USA
The variety of topics was great with nothing missing. Speakers in three different languages made it more friendly. The age group of Speakers was also quite wide so that everyone could connect. We could find a lot of new speakers along with the popular ones. --- Bhaven Kamdar, West Bengal, India
All speakers I watched were authentic and knowledgeable in their respective subject matter. They explained their topics enthusiastically and kept me involved. --- Dhiren N. Shah, Ph. D, IN, USA

Dr. Bimal Chhajer’s session on heart disease and prevention was excellent. We need more lectures like that for diabetes, high blood pressure, etc. --- Jit Turakhia, New York, USA
Thanks to JAINA for excellent programs. Tirth Darshan was great for seniors who otherwise would not have been able to do it, JAINA provided them with home Darshan. Hats off to everyone involved and a ton of thanks to JAINA. --- Anonymous
Speakers were amazing, I like bringing different speakers than past many years repeated same one. Try to bring more in line with better living and vegan related speakers. --- Sharad N Doshi, MD, USA
Dr Gyanvaysal Sawmill session was informative, easy to follow and very insightful. Eye opening experience of human life, how one should have complete faith in dharam and in self from Swaminarayan's perspective. It was tied beautifully with Jain principles. Thoroughly enjoyed it. --- Sneha Kothari , Toronto, ON, Canada
All the speakers!/ Scholars I attended were very knowledgeable and their topics were connected to our Jain principles of Ahimsa, Anekantvad and Aprigrah. --- Jagruti, NJ, USA
Speaker selection was excellent and enjoyed very much, each speaker had its own style to convey the common message of Ahimsa & Unity, my wife and I learned a lot. Only issue we had was with sound which was not satisfactory, and missed the speaker eye contact - nothing like meeting under one roof. --- Jayant Shah, USA
I really liked the JAINA Convention program. Many speakers were awesome. I got inspired by many of them. There was everyday something new to learn and inspire. Platform was nicely created. --- Vora, USA
Many kudos to all volunteers! it was great convention on-line. So many good sessions from knowledgeable speakers who were well prepared. really enjoyed completely everything I attended. --- Dipali, IL, USA
The topics given to each of the 6 keynote speakers were pertinent and relevant to my everyday life situations. Besides roping in the best of the best speakers, JAINA did a good job at giving them the right topics. I was blessed to attend all sessions (keynote speakers) and get valuable lessons of life. --- Hiten Gutka, NJ, USA
Excellent speakers! Tirth darshan was added bonus to this year's convention. Anumodana to all who made this everlasting memories for me and my family. Looking forward for many more! --- Bina Shah, TX, USA
I feel all events were very interesting and educational. Great chance to listen to very famous and popular Jain Acharya Gurudev Maharaj in Bharat. It was great to listen from great Jain and non-Jain speakers. This was possible only due to JAINA. --- Anonymous, MI, USA
Great to listen to speakers from around the world. Good opportunity to listen to Acharya Maharaj Sahebs due to virtual convention. --- Anonymous
Maharaj Sahebji lectures were great. We should continue and have more such lectures in future convention. It will be good to get new faces instead of same speakers from past conventions. This time we had a lot of new speakers which was great. --- Anonymous, NJ, USA
