In Jainism, Paryushana is observed in August/September every year, coinciding with the onset of the South-West monsoon. Jain monks refrain from travelling during this time not to cause any harm or injury to any living organisms. As for the laity, this ten-day period is marked by strict observance of the ten cardinal virtues.
