Charipalit Sangh Yatra
A pilgrimage undertaken on foot in the company of Jain monks and nuns — the highest form of communal Yatra to the sacred mountain of Girnar.
WALKING WITH THE SANGHA
The Charipalit Sangh Yatra is one of the most auspicious forms of Jain pilgrimage — a group journey to Girnar undertaken on foot, in the company of Jain sadhus and sadhvis (monks and nuns). To walk with the Sangha to Girnar is considered an act of immense spiritual merit.
A Charipalit Sangh is a traditional Jain pilgrimage undertaken with prescribed disciplines and guidance. The entire group walks together, performs Darshan and Puja at the temples, and travels back in the same spirit of communal devotion. It is not merely a journey to a mountain. It is a journey undertaken as a Sangha — a community of souls walking together toward something greater.

WHAT THIS YATRA INVOLVES
Walking together
The entire Sangh travels on foot — this is the essence of the Charipalit Yatra. The physical journey is itself the spiritual practice.
Led by monks and nuns
The Yatra is led by Jain sadhus and sadhvis who guide the community in prayers, devotional singing and practice throughout the journey.
Darshan and Puja at Girnar
The Sangh performs Darshan and Puja at all 14 derasars of Girnar, culminating at the Neminath Bhagwan Toonk and Sahasavan.
Community travel
Arrangements for meals and stay along the route are made communally. This is a shared experience from beginning to end.
