Toronto’s Jains build a ‘landmark’ temple: AJIT JAIN



There are approximately eight million followers of the Jain religion worldwide – and close to 6,000 of them in Toronto – but it’s part of their ethos to keep a low profile.

Now that’s about to change: For the first time, this community will have their own traditional temple in the city. And at 48,000 square feet, it will be hard to miss.

“It will become another landmark and … tourist attraction,” said Milan Shah, one of the leaders of the local Jain community. On behalf of the Jain Society of Toronto, he teamed up with real-estate developer Moti Champsee to negotiate a $4.8-million deal with the Greek community in June to buy their partially finished Hellenic Cultural Centre on Ellesmere Road and Warden Avenue in Scarborough.

  3. When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added"
    checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four emails with the same comment.
    Is there any way you can remove people from that service? Bless you!

    overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!

  14. Woah! I'm really enjoying the template/theme of this website. It's simple, yet effective.
    A lot of times it's very difficult to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and visual appeal. I must say you have done a very good job with this. Also, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Opera. Excellent Blog!

  16. Heya this is kind of of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
    I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding experience so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  20. Currently it looks like BlogEngine is the best blogging platform out there right
    now. (from what I've read) Is that what you are using on your blog?

  21. Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to
    my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear."
    She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and
    it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely
    off topic but I had to tell someone!
