Pujya Acharya Shri Hemchandrasagar Suri Maharaj is widely known as an erudite scholar and a profoundly impactful speaker. His sermons, much like those of a masterful teacher, are rich in expression, clarity, and depth. His unique style is marked by the use of refined language, logical resolutions, precise examples, and a deep, unwavering commitment to the subject.

He has gracefully carried forward the legacy of his revered Guru, Panyas Shri Abhaysagarji Maharaj Saheb, particularly in the realm of Navkar Bhakti and scriptural discourses.

Wherever Pujya Shri resides during Chaturmas or while travelling in Sheshkaal, he establishes branches of “Shri Navkar Parivar”, inspiring thousands of devotees to chant and embrace the Navkar Mantra. Through this initiative, he has performed an exceptional service in preserving and promoting Jain Dharma and culture.

Pujya Acharya Shri Hemchandrasagar Suri Maharaj has himself recited crores of Navkar Mantras. He possesses extraordinary skill in organising and conducting grand-scale collective aradhanas (spiritual practices) centred on the Navkar Mantra.

He is the spiritual guide to over a hundred well-disciplined and educated disciples and sub-disciples, holding a place of deep reverence within the Jinshasan and Jain Shri Sangh.

Not just a jap sadhak (devotional chanter), he is also a tapasvi, having guided the observance of 77 Olis of Vardhaman Tap, Varshitaps, and other rigorous austerities.

Many of his disciples are also distinguished — possessing mastery over Jain scriptures, authorship, oratory, and spiritual disciplines like Vardhaman Tap.

Pujya Shri is the guiding force and spiritual architect behind the Shri Ayodhyapuram Mahatirth and Shri Sumeru Navkar Tirth.

These two grand tirths are not only managed under his leadership but also stand as testaments to his unmatched skill in spiritual architecture and organisation.

One cannot help but bow in reverence before Pujya Shri’s aesthetic vision — these two tirths are rare, divine, and priceless gifts to the Jain community.

To witness the compassion, courage, purity, and profound influence of Pujya Shri, one need only recall the 140-day Chhari Palak Mahasangh from Surat to Sammed Shikharji, and the 136-day Yatra from Chennai to Palitana. Both of these monumental pilgrimages have been beautifully documented in commemorative volumes.

Every year, under his guidance, events like Updhan Tapas, Anjanshalakas, Prabhu Pratishtha Shivirs, exclusive discourses for youth, large-scale Navkar Mantra Aradhanas, youth organisations, and spiritual literature publications are conducted.

Because of these contributions, Pujya Shri is revered as a highly respected spiritual mentor of the Jain Sangh, a guide to the youth, and a rare, benevolent saint forever committed to the protection and upliftment of Dharma and culture.
