Campaigns with a Conscience: Shanti Sankalp’s Call to Compassion
Shanti Sankalp isn’t just an organisation — it’s a movement rewriting the rules of seva (selfless service) with soul, spirit, and strategy. From protecting barefoot Jain monks on chaotic city roads to fulfilling a saint’s final wish with 1,000 litres of ghee, every campaign pulses with purpose.
We revive temples, educate ascetics, rescue animals, connect Jainism with science, and now, we’re tackling mental health through our newest initiative — Jeevan Sankalp, a national suicide prevention campaign.
Each campaign is powered by love, logic, and legacy — proving that faith isn’t passive; it’s fiercely compassionate.
The Ghee Submission Drive – A Sacred Wish Fulfilled
In memory of a revered Jain Sadhvi who chose to forgo cancer treatment and instead expressed a final wish: to donate 1,000 liters of ghee to Jain derasars worldwide.
With unwavering dedication from Shanti Sankalp founder Nikhil Pattani, and the compassionate response from the Jain community, this wish was fulfilled in just 7 days. Over 100+ contributors from across India were honored with the Peace Ambassador title for their role in this divine service.
“Her last wish wasn’t about herself—it was about service. And that is the heart of Jainism.”
Jain Sadhu-Sadhvi Vihār Samrakshan Yojana – A National Call for Dharma Protection
Jain monks and nuns walk barefoot across cities as part of their sacred Vihār. Today, urban chaos and dangerous roads threaten their safety and dignity.
Shanti Sankalp, under the leadership of Nikhil Bhai Pattani, has launched a nationwide appeal to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to implement the “Jain Sadhu-Sadhvi Vihār Samrakshan Yojana”.
Key Proposals:
Dedicated walking paths for Jain ascetics
Shaded corridors and natural flooring for their safety
Official signage, awareness campaigns, and legal reforms
“This is more than infrastructure. It is about preserving a legacy of peace, discipline, and spirituality.”
3. Sadhu-Sadhvi Education Support
We believe that our Jain monks and nuns are the torchbearers of our spiritual legacy. To empower newly initiated Sadhus and Sadhvis, Shanti Sankalp is working towards developing a structured education system that blends traditional Jain philosophy with modern learning tools. This initiative will ensure that our ascetics are equipped with deep scriptural knowledge, contemporary awareness, and communication skills to guide society meaningfully.
4. Derasar Revival Planning
Our ancient Derasars (Jain temples) are not just places of worship — they are living symbols of art, history, and faith. Many of these heritage sites are in urgent need of restoration. Shanti Sankalp is spearheading the Derasar Revival Planning project to restore, conserve, and rejuvenate these sacred spaces. Through expert planning and community involvement, we aim to revive their spiritual, cultural, and architectural glory for future generations.
5. Jainism Science Exhibitions
To connect Jain principles with today’s youth, we organize science exhibitions that showcase the profound wisdom of Jainism through a scientific lens. These exhibitions help illustrate concepts like Ahimsa, Anekantvad, and Aparigraha in ways that are engaging, interactive, and thought-provoking, bridging the gap between ancient wisdom and modern curiosity.
6. Jeev Daya Drives
At the heart of Jainism lies compassion for all living beings. Our Jeev Daya Drives are dedicated to promoting animal welfare and creating awareness about the importance of kindness towards all life forms. We organize animal rescue operations, feeding drives, and awareness campaigns that encourage communities to adopt a lifestyle rooted in compassion and non-violence.
7. Jeevan Sankalp
A Suicide Prevention Action Campaign by Shanti Sankalp
जीवन को चुनो, क्योंकि तुम ज़रूरी हो।
Choose life, because you matter.
Why Jeevan Sankalp?
In a world full of noise, expectations, and emotional isolation, too many souls suffer in silence. Some are spiritual seekers. Some are students. Some are caregivers. And some are simply tired.
Shanti Sankalp’s new initiative — Jeevan Sankalp — is a compassionate call to action.
Rooted in Jain principles of Ahimsa (non-violence), Anekantvad (acceptance of multiple truths), and Karuna (compassion), this campaign aims to prevent suicide through awareness, connection, and healing.
We believe choosing life is the most spiritual act of courage.
And no one should feel alone in their darkest moment.
What We Do
✔️ Mental Health Awareness Workshops
Spirituality meets science — we organize sessions in colleges, housing societies, and religious communities, busting myths around mental health and encouraging open dialogue.
✔️ Training Jain Sadhus & Sadhvis as Hope Ambassadors
Monks and nuns have long been guides of inner peace. We equip them with modern tools and empathetic training to become listeners, supporters, and suicide prevention allies.
✔️ 24×7 Emotional Helpline (Coming Soon)
A trained team of counselors, spiritual guides, and volunteers will be available to offer support and comfort to anyone feeling lost.
✔️ Compassion Circles
Offline and online safe spaces where people can share, grieve, heal, and find support — without shame or stigma.
✔️ Creative Campaigns & Public Art Projects
Murals. Spoken word. Photography. We believe art heals — and we use it to spread messages of resilience, joy, and the strength to stay.
Our Core Belief
“Suicide is not a choice. It’s a symptom of suffering. We choose to respond with love, logic, and listening.”
