7 Jain Religion Basic Information: 10 million followers Two major branches Digambar Shwetamber
8 What is Religion? According to Mahavir swami The true nature of a substance is a religion Religion reveals the true nature of our soul, and the inherent qualities of our soul
9 Inherent Qualities of our Soul Infinite Knowledge Infinite Perception Infinite Energy Infinite Bliss
10 What is Jainism? A Philosophy of Living Jains: Follow JINA, the conqueror of Inner Enemies Inner Enemies (Kashays): Anger (Krodh) Greed (lobh) Ego (maan) Deceit (maya) Causes: Attachment (Raag) and Aversion (Dwesh)
11 THE ULTIMATE GOAL Free our soul from its bondage of Karma through Samyak Darshan (Rational Perception) Samyak Gnan (Rational Knowledge) Samyak Charitra (Rational Conduct)
12 Unique Teachings of Jainism Ahimsa (Non-Violence or Universal love ) Anekant (Non-absolutism) Aparigraha (Non-attachment)
13 Ahimsa (Non violence) Ahimsa practiced at 3 Levels: Kaya (body) Vachan (speech) Man (mind)
14 Anekant ( Non-absolutism) See an entity from all directions Expression of Truth is Relative or Non-absolute Truth is expressed in many ways One cannot make definite statement about Truth Each statement is true in its own limited sense Example: Story of 9 blind men seeing an Elephant
15 Aparigraha (Non-attachment) Attachment with People or Objects leads to Possession Jain Sadhus (Monks) and Jain Sadhvis exemplify Aparigraha
16 Jain Karma Theory Law of cause and effect (action and reaction) What one sows, one reaps Our intention behind our actions of mind, speech and body is 2 nd dimension of our karmas
17 What is Karma? Karma is a matter(pudgal) determining the fate of the soul in rebirths It is composed of very fine karmic particles = karmons Entire universe is filled with karmic particles
18 An Analogy - Magnetism
19 Empowering Theory While the law of karma dictates what we are experiencing now to be the result of our own past action, the law - by clearly defining the principle of cause and effect - also lays before us positive future direction of our own choice and making Only WE are responsible for our past, present and future and only WE can alter it. No one else can!
20 Jain Cosmology According to Jain metaphysics the universe is an uncreated entity which has always been in existence and shall always be there. There was neither any beginning of the universe nor is there going to be any end.
21 Six Universal Substances According to Jain Science, the universe is comprised of six substances Soul (Jiva) Matter (Ajiva) Space (Akash) Time (Kal) Dynamic medium (Dharmastikay) Stationary medium (Adharmastikay)
22 Six Universal Substances In standard physics one deals with matter in time and space coordinate system In contrast, in Jain science it is the soul which is to be studied in terms of time, space and matter
23 Jain Literature Digambar View All Agams are Extinct Purva Agams (12th Ang) by 356 BC 11 Ang and 14 Ang-bahya by 157 AD Agam substitute literature Satkhand Agam Kashay-pahud Four Anuyogs

25 Jain Literature Ang-pravista Agams Direct teachings of lord Mahavir Composed by Ganadhars 12 Ang-pravista Agams Acharang sutra - being the oldest of all
26 Paryushana Parva A Religious festival To come together from all directions To bring all external thoughts inward to reflect upon your soul To seek Forgiveness from all living beings
27 Kalpa Sutra Author: Acharya Bhadrabahu_swami A scripture which describes how to enhance Religious knowledge (Gnan( Gnan) Conduct (Charitra, Shila) Self control (Penance or Tap)
