In a tragic incident, two Jain monks – Shree Jambu Vijay Ji Maharaj Saben and Shri Namaskar Vijay Maharaj Sabeb, walking towards Jaisalmer were mowed down by a speeding Toyota Qualis car on Nakoda-Jaisalmer road in Rajasthan.
Police sources said Monks had set out for Jaisalmer after halt in Nakoda teerth. A Toyota Quallis crushed them while they were walking on the roadside.
According to sources Shri Dharmaghosh Vijay Ji Maharaj Saheb who was also in a group of monks was injured and hospitalized in critical condition.
This is second such tragic incident in just three days. On 10 November four Jain Sadhvis were killed in a road accident on Mehsana-Unjha highway.
Majority of Jain monks never use any type of vehicle in their life. They just walk barefoot. In last some years, accidents have killed and injured dozens of Jain monks on Highway side.

Has the Toyota Qualis owner been identified…..I see conspiracy against Jains Monks by some people…
Great loss for Universe and Jain Samaj
great loss for Jain samaj and whole Univers.
Within a month four Jain Sadhvis are killed in Road accident.
Another road accident kills two Jain Monks.
Both time Jains are involved both are road accident.
Is there any connection.
Is there any group or serial murderer in action.
Too many coincidences dont happen.
People should not be allowed to walk on highways.
Highways are for vehicals only.
No bicycle, no Walkers no carts or rickshows should be allowed.
In Gujarat, Muslims have to shut down their slaughter houses legally during Paryushan week. Muslims went to Supreme Court to stop this but were defeated by Jains.
Jains are very active in capturing trucks carrying calves meant for slaughter in North Gujarat.
There can be some connection between this thing and Jain Munis dying on roads.
Police should nab the culprits, so that people can be assured that there is no conspiracy in this. Or if there is a conspiracy, it should come out.
I know jambuvijayji maharaj saheb and their work and i worked under him for 3 months. He was genius and I think he was the last man who understand jain ancient document and language throughly. Apart from that he was the one of the greatest in jain munis in recent times.
I hope we jains and jain samaj now make sure our munis vihar is safe and peaceful that is least we can do for them.
Jai jinendra
It is a tragic accident… my respects for Jambu Vijayji and other sadhus/sadhvis killed in recent accidents. The issue here is traffic safety, though. There are far too many traffic deaths in India. And, there is rarely any enforcement. It seems bitter when you get a traffic ticket, but in long run, enforcement keeps roads safer.
Jains unlike us Muslims believe in Non Violence.
In view of these deaths Jains Should ban JAINS FrOM WALKING ON HIGHWAY.
Because death by accident is violence.
By not keeping with time the AVIDYA and EGO has become the chief cause of INDIRECT violence
to JAIN MUNIS.
The cars involved in accident are damaged and any Garage repairing should report it to Police.
TO ALL MY JAIN BROTHERS & SISTERS: I FEEL YOUR PAIN AND EMOTIONS ON THIS ISSUE. WHAT I WONDER IS –IS THIS JUST AN ACCIDENT ? DRUNK DRIVING ? LICENSE OBTAINED WITHOUT TEST BY BRIBING SOMEONE ? TALKING ON PHONE WHILE DRIVING ? INTENTIONAL KILLING OF PEDESTRIAN OR JUST CARELESS DRIVERS BEHIND WHEELS, BLIND SO THEY HAVE NO RESPECT FOR ANOTHER FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS. WHEN NEW ROADS ARE BEING BUILT PLEASE HAVE HIGHER LEVEL WALKING TRAIL FOR PEDESTRIAN DEVIDED BY CONCRETE WALL 2′ HIGH,SO CAR HAS TO HIT WALL BEFORE HITTING A PERSON AND EXPENSE SHOULD BE COLLECTED FROM DRIVERS AS YEARLY TAX FOR OWNING CAR JUST LIKE PERSONAL PROPERTY. ALL CAR REPAIR SHOPS REPORT DAMAGE FROM ACCIDENT TO STATE BEFORE REPAIRING SINCE PPL RUN AWAY FROM SCENE AND BY THE TIME POLICE GETS THERE IF ANYONE NOTIFIES IT’S TOO LATE.MAY GOD GIVE PEACE TO THESE SOULD OF ANHINSAA.
