Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This informative book provides a complete novice�s guide to Jainism, one of the oldest living religions of the world. Dating back to the sixth century B.C., it was founded by Mahavira, a contemporary of Buddha. Also known as the Jina, or conqueror, he achieved enlightenment after twelve years of rigorous self-denial and taught that liberation from the relentless cycle of birth and rebirth can be achieved through right faith, knowledge, conduct, and asceticism. Like Buddhism, Jainism rejects the authority of the Vedas and the caste system, and advocates non-violence, or ahimsa, towards all living beings. The book explores Jainism�s fascinating history and philosophy, and provides an overview of the three main Jain sects: the Digambaras, the Svetambaras, and the Sthanakavasis. It discusses Jainism�s distinctive beliefs, such as the existence of multiple universes, the concept of karma and the nine categories of existence. The author also examines the role of asceticism and monasticism in Jainism, and presents the key tenets of Jain ethics and morality, which center around the idea of non-violence and respect for all life forms. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781333411725_0
