Reasons behind the varying Paryushan dates for Shwetambar and Digambar Jains
The Shwetambar and Digambar sects of Jainism mark the Paryushan festival on separate dates due to differences in their traditions and the ways they calculate the timing of religious events. This eight-day period is dedicated to self-reflection, fasting, seeking forgiveness, and spiritual growth. Despite the difference in timing, both groups view Paryushan as one of the most important religious festivals in the Jain faith.
