'Manlai Jite Jita' is a collection of Mahapragya's remarkable discourses. The 20th edition of this book has been published in Hindi.

Golchha added, "I believe studying this book makes the reader's mind stress-free and provides an enjoyable experience for people of all generations, including the younger ones."

"Publishing this book honours my father's legacy and expresses my deep respect for him," Golchha continued. "I dedicate 'Manlai Jite Jita' to my late father, Hulas Chand Golchha, who lived a spiritual life."

On the occasion, Muni Ramesh Kumar said, "'Manlai Jite Jita' is a collection of discourses by Shri Mahapragya, the 10th master of Jain Swetamber Terapanth. Acharya Mahapragya was a saint, yogi, spiritualist, philosopher, writer, orator, and poet. He was a highly intelligent Acharya and the originator of the Prekshadhyan method. The book explains the development of a unique scientific method of Dhyana called Prekshadhyan by Acharya Mahapragya. Through this method, hundreds of people have gained spiritual energy and peace by overcoming mental disorders. Regarding the content of 'Manlai Jite Jita', Muni Ramesh Kumar stated, "Indeed, it is very easy to conquer the mind. However, while it is easy, it is also very difficult. It is easier because the mind is the humble and obedient servant of our inner consciousness. It becomes difficult to overcome when we accept it as the supreme consciousness. The fault lies not with the mind but with our own ignorance. Before we start the campaign to conquer the mind, we must dispel the darkness of our ignorance and remove the veil of illusion."

The ceremony was conducted by Dr Naman Upadhyay. Shri Jain Swetamber Terapanthi Sabha President Subhag Mal Jammad and the Sabha's advisor Ranjeet Singh Bhansali also addressed the event.
