March 29–30, 2025 – Mark these dates in the spiritual history of Indore, because JIA (aka Jain Icon Award) just happened – and it was LIT (in the most peaceful and dharmic way, of course).
Under the divine blessings of Shrut Samvegi Mahashraman Shri 108 Adityasagar Ji Muniraj and hosted by the Samarpan Group, JIA wasn’t just an event — it was a spiritual fiesta for creators, influencers, and young visionaries who’ve been lighting up the digital space with Jain values and content.
Jainism: Jain Icon Award: Because Being Dharmic is the New Cool
Social media has seen enough of viral dances and 24-hour challenges — now it’s time for SpiritualGoals! JIA honored youth who’ve been passionately spreading Digambar Jainism across platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube — not for the likes, but for the Love of Dharma.
From reels to real rewards, creators received trophies, cool gift bags, and the title of a Jain Icon (yes, it sounds prestigious because it is). And for those who missed it? Don’t worry — next year, we’re expecting double the talent, double the energy, and double the dhamakedaar entries. So, sharpen your content game and get spiritually creative!
Jainism: Short Films, Big Ideas – The Competition That Had It All
What happens when filmmakers meet faith? You get the Spiritual Short Film Competition – a perfect mix of storytelling, tradition, and talent.
Participants chose from two powerful themes:
- “Shatkarm Pravartak Adinath Bhagwan” – honoring the Tirthankar who basically started it all
- “Spiritual Management” – based on the bestseller (yes, it’s officially wise AND cool now), written by Mahashraman Shri Adityasagar Ji, blending life hacks with Jain wisdom.
With videos ranging from 40 to 90 seconds, these short films packed a punch!
The top entries won cash prizes from ₹11,000 to ₹51,000, and everyone who participated got a big round of applause, swag bags, and lots of good karma.
