President Ramchandra Paudel has said that like all religions, the Federal Democratic Republic also seeks moral values and virtue. He said this while addressing the program organized by Nepal Jain Parishad on the occasion of Lord Mahabir's 2623rd birth anniversary.
He also clarified that the basic goal of all religions is the welfare of the human race.
President Paudel also said that the goal of religion is happiness, peace, progress, discipline, and building a civilized and cultured society and country.
On the occasion of the 2623rd birth anniversary, he expressed his best wishes to all the Nepali Jain brothers and sisters and said that it is positive and timely to celebrate the 2623rd birth anniversary of Lord Mahabir as a day of non-violence as usual under the leadership of Nepal Jain Parishad, the representative organization of Jains in Nepal.
Stating that the Jain followers of Nepal live together among different communities, President Paudel expressed the opinion that wherever they are following the principles of Lord Mahavir, they have succeeded in leaving a positive impression through religion, culture, and social service. "I believe that this organization will work more effectively in the future by promoting Jain philosophy such as non-violence, peace, pluralism, morality, character, and equality," he said.
Religion has ethics, authenticity, commitment, and truth.
