Aryika Shri 105 Vidhashri Mata Ji

Aryika Shri 105 Vidhashri Mata Ji is a revered ascetic belonging to the Digambara monastic tradition of Jainism. Fully embodying the 28 Mula Gunas (primary ascetic virtues), Mahavratas, and Bhagwan Mahavira's timeless doctrine of Ahimsa (non-violence) and Aparigraha (non-possession), they are venerated widely across the global Jain community.

Prior to renunciation, Aryika Shri 105 Vidhashri Mata Ji was born in the secular world at Tikamgarh, Madhya Pradesh, India . Their pre-monastic childhood name was 'ASHA'.

Realizing the transient nature of worldly pursuits, they renounced worldly possessions to embrace the rigorous Digambara ascetic vows.

Adhering strictly to the Digambara monastic code of pedestrian travel (pad-vihar without shoes or motorized transport), Pujya Shri has successfully observed 2 sacred rainy-season Chaturmas retreats across multiple Indian states spanning from 2016 to 2018. Their untiring vihar on foot has inspired thousands of devotees to adopt non-violence, truth, and spiritual self-discipline.

Their discourses and daily guidance serve as a profound beacon of wisdom for seekers on the spiritual path.

Currently, Pujya Vidhashri is residing at Hastinapur, Uttar Pradesh, India for spiritual discourse and vihar, where devotees gather for daily darshan, pure aahar-charya observances, and scriptural discourses.
