August 2026 Chai & Chat | Sunny Jain shares his Ahimsa Awakening Moment

On August 16, 2026, JAINA hosted a special Chai & Chat: Ahimsa Awakenings Across Generations, in a fantastic collaboration with Young Jains of America (YJA) and Young Jain Professionals (YJP). The conversation featured Pramodaben Chitrabhanu, Kanvi Shah, and Sunny Jain — three voices from different generations reflecting on how the timeless Jain principle of Ahimsa can shape the choices we make in everyday life. In this clip, Sunny Jain shares his “Ahimsa Awakening” moment — a point in his journey when his understanding of Ahimsa began to deepen beyond simply avoiding harm. As he reflected more closely on the impact of his everyday choices, Ahimsa became not only a principle to believe in, but a call to live with greater compassion, awareness, and consideration for all living beings.
