I have got some interesting questions in Jain communities that I have answered. Some of those are reproduced here.
Q1Does the soul have to wait till the "right" kind of gati, in the right circumstance is available? if it has to wait where does it wait? in the same bhoomi where the body passed away or in some other place?
Ans: No, the soul has not to wait. It starts immediately from the place of death and body. Other questions therefore not applicable.
Q2 Does a soul that has left the body still have its past memories? or does it lose them after having left the body? or does it maintain them and then loses them as soon as it takes another birth?
Ans: All these depend on a particular soul. In most of the cases soul looses its memory with in few moments.
Q3 Does a soul experience time the way humans do? like does it have to "wait" from one transition to another?
Ans: As answered earlier it has not to wait. The time span is so short that it can not even perceive (not more than four samayas)
Q4 If many bodies have died together, like in a war or bomb blast etc, can these souls interact with one another in any way? or with people (like ghosts) Can they see the world without eyes the way we see things with our eyes? can they hear and smell and taste and feel without any of those organs? if yes then how? if no then what do they experience?
Ans: No they can not interact with each other. As they do not have any senses (dravya indriya) they can not feel touch, taste etc. They experience Karmafal only.
Q5 If a soul has to travel from one Kshetra to take birth in another, how fast does it travel? Is the journey immediate or is there a speed limit for souls, like there is for light... this question sounds silly but its very fundamental in numerous ways
Ans:There is no speed limit. Time factor is decieded upon turns. If it goes in straight line it takes one samaya. If it turns once it takes two samayas. At a maximum it takes three turns, hence four samayas.

Hongkong Gems and Jewelry show is the biggest show in Asia. Jewelers and gem dealers were expecting good sales in Hongkong fair. There was a sign of revival in Gems and Jewelry trade in Mumbai show after long time. Jewelers and gem dealers were expecting some good days in hongkong show. However, it was not as good as expected.
Large number ofgemstone dealers from Jaipuralso participated in the show but most of them are discouraged. America is not yet recovered from recession. economy of America is slow. European countries are following the same track. The only hope for the Jewelers and gemstone dealers is India. India is doing well. There are good sales and consumption of color stones and diamonds in India.
It seems that domestic market will support the Jewelers but not overseas market.

* Jain temples are representatives of our culture and tradition. Large number of old Jain temples are demolished and reconstructed nowadays in the name of Jain architecture. Many so called Jain Acharya and monks / nuns are being instrumental in demolishing old Jain temples in the name of Jirnoddhar.
Some instances:
1. An old Jain temple in Patna city was demolished few years back for reconstruction. a famous Jain Acharya was behind this. 2. An old Jain temple is demolished recently for new construction in Kota. A member of Shwetambar Jain community, Kota has reported that a renowned Jain Sadhwi is instrumental to this demolition. 3. Famous Jain pilgrimage center Jeerawala Parasnath (Parshwanath) temple was demolished 5-6 years back and reconstructed with expenditures of crores of rupees. 4. An old Jain temple in Mundra, Kutchchh is also demolished and under process of reconstruction. It is reported that a Jain monk is working behind the scene.
There are many other examples of demolishing old Jain temples. Many of us believe that this is destroying our own rich culture and tradition.
