Ganini Aryika Shri 105 Pragyamati Mata Ji

Ganini Aryika Shri 105 Pragyamati 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, Ganini Aryika Shri 105 Pragyamati Mata Ji was born in the secular world on Jan 7, 1960 at Shamnewadi, Belgaon, Karnataka . Their pre-monastic childhood name was 'Kamalshri'. They were born into a pious Digambara household to father Shri Shri Annasaheb and mother Shrimati Shrimati Saunabai, whose deep spiritual values laid the foundation for their future renunciation.

Realizing the transient nature of worldly pursuits, they renounced worldly possessions to embrace the rigorous Digambara ascetic vows. On May 5, 1982 at Ganeshwadi, Maharashtra, under the holy guidance of Acharya Shri 108 Vidyanand Ji Maharaj, they received sacred Aryika Diksha.

In accordance with ancient Digambara monastic disciplines, they continuously travel entirely on foot to guide the faithful and preserve the canonical tenets of Jainism.

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

Currently, Pujya Pragyamati is residing at N/A for spiritual discourse and vihar, where devotees gather for daily darshan, pure aahar-charya observances, and scriptural discourses.
