DISCOVER A FESTIVAL THAT CELEBRATES THE COURAGE TO SAY "I AM SORRY"
My Paryushana introduces young readers to one of the most important festivals in Jainism, a sacred time of reflection and renewal celebrated by Jain communities around the world. At the heart of the celebration is the tradition of saying "Michhami Dukkadam," meaning, "If I have hurt you in any way through word, thought, or action, please forgive me." This powerful custom encourages children to reflect on their actions and practice humility, accountability, and forgiveness. Through prayer, fasting, and acts of kindness, families honor the teachings of Mahavira and the principle of ahimsa (nonviolence). This meaningful picture book invites children to explore values such as empathy, responsibility, and ethical living while learning about an important cultural tradition. Perfect for families, classrooms, and libraries, My Paryushana helps young readers discover how kindness, reflection, and forgiveness can strengthen individuals and communities alike.
