Bhanvarlal has become 108th disciple of his Guru who gave him diksha. A life of Jain monk is full of struggle and bounded in strict rules. A day before diksha day, Bhanvarlal had in his 7.5 km long Varshidan procession threw golden coins (and keys of cars as per spectators) as donation to general people. Industrialist Gautam Adani was present on Sunday during final diksha ceremony of Shri Doshi who has been now named as BhavyaRatna ji Maharaj.
