Get to know fellow guests at an optional Jain community social mixer. Chat about local volunteering, low-waste activities or favourite recipes, with the freedom to pass on any square.
How to run this activity
Use this optional bingo only during a specifically approved community social session, outside temple/gurdwara worship, food service, rituals and restricted spaces. Follow the host's local dress, interaction and accessibility guidance. Participants may pass without explanation.
Facilitator guidance
Confirm the programme, boundaries between sacred and social activities, and dietary and accessibility requirements with the organiser. Check all 24 cues against the actual gathering, and choose one-line wins or smaller boards where helpful.
Safety and inclusion
Keep this an optional, host-approved social activity; never score prayer, worship, sacred rites, religious learning, service duties or individual piety. Do not require introductions, touching, photos or disclosure of religious beliefs or fasting practices, and avoid stereotyped assumptions. Provide accessible alternatives and let participants pass without explanation. Check local language needs and ask hosts about specific Jain ingredient, fasting and venue restrictions rather than assuming vegetarian food is sufficient.
Cultural context
Jain beliefs and dietary practices vary by individual and sect. Keep the activity separate from temple worship, and never use it to test anyone's dietary knowledge or observance.
