Recently, the Prime Minister of India inaugurated the Samrat Samprati Museum in Gujarat.

Samrat Samprati (224–215 BC) was an important ruler of the Mauryan dynasty. He was the grandson of the great emperor Samrat Ashoka, who is well known for spreading Buddhism.

Samprati was also known by several other names such as Indrapalit, Sangat, and Vigatashok.

He is especially remembered for his efforts in spreading Jainism and promoting the principle of non-violence (Ahimsa). Due to his deep dedication towards Jainism, he is often referred to as the “Jain Ashoka”.

The life and contributions of Samrat Samprati are mentioned in various Jain scriptures such as Sampratikatha, Parishistaparva, and Prabhavakcharita.

It is believed that he established centres of Jain culture not only across India but also in regions like Iran and Arab countries, which shows the wide influence of his rule.

Samprati is also credited with building thousands of Jain temples, particularly in the western and southern parts of India, making him one of the greatest patrons of Jainism in ancient India.

हिंदी कंटेंट

हाल ही में भारत के प्रधानमंत्री ने गुजरात में सम्राट सम्प्रति संग्रहालय का उद्घाटन किया।

सम्राट सम्प्रति (224–215 ईसा पूर्व) मौर्य वंश के एक महत्वपूर्ण शासक थे। वे महान सम्राट अशोक के पोते थे, जो बौद्ध धर्म के प्रचार के लिए प्रसिद्ध थे।

सम्प्रति को इन्द्रपालित, संगत और विगताशोक जैसे अन्य नामों से भी जाना जाता था।

वे विशेष रूप से जैन धर्म के प्रचार और अहिंसा के सिद्धांत को बढ़ावा देने के लिए जाने जाते हैं। जैन धर्म के प्रति उनके योगदान के कारण उन्हें “जैन अशोक” भी कहा जाता है।

सम्राट सम्प्रति के जीवन और कार्यों का वर्णन जैन ग्रंथों जैसे सम्प्रतिकथा, परिशिष्टपर्व और प्रभावकचरित में मिलता है।

यह माना जाता है कि उन्होंने न केवल भारत में बल्कि ईरान और अरब देशों में भी जैन संस्कृति के केंद्र स्थापित किए, जिससे उनके शासन का व्यापक प्रभाव दिखाई देता है।

सम्प्रति को पश्चिमी और दक्षिणी भारत में हजारों जैन मंदिरों के निर्माण का श्रेय भी दिया जाता है, जिससे वे प्राचीन भारत में जैन धर्म के सबसे बड़े संरक्षकों में से एक बनते हैं।
