skip to main skip to sidebar ANTI NEW WORLD ORDER All the world's a stage. And all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts." Wednesday, March 11, 2009 Jainism Jainism (pronounced /ˈdʒaɪnɪzəm/ ) is one of the oldest religions that originated in India . Jains believe that every soul is divine and has the potential to achieve God-consciousness. Any soul which has conquered its own inner enemies and achieved the state of supreme being is called jina (Conqueror or Victor). Jainism is the path to achieve this state. Jainism is often referred to as Jain Dharma Shraman Dharma or the religion of Nirgantha or religion of "Vratyas" by ancient texts. Jainism was revived by a lineage of 24 enlightened ascetics called tirthankaras culminating with Parsva (9th century BCE) and Mahavira (6th century BCE). In the modern world, it is a small but influential religious minority with as many as 10 million followers in India and successful growing immigrant communities in North America Western Europe , the Far East Australia and elsewhere.

14. What Is Jainism? What is jainism? What are the core beliefs of jainism? How is jainism related to Hinduism? http://www.gotquestions.org/Jainism.html

What is Jainism? Question: "What is Jainism?" Answer: Jainism began in the 6th century as a reformation movement within Hinduism. It is based on the teachings of its founder, Mahavira. Believing that a life of self-denial was the way to achieve “enlightenment,” Mahavira wandered naked and mute through India for 12 years, enduring hardship and abuse. After this, he took on disciples, preaching his new-found belief. Mahavira was vehemently opposed to the idea of acknowledging or worshipping a supreme being. Although Mahavira denied that any God or gods existed to be worshipped, he, like other religious leaders, was deified by his later followers. He was named the 24th Tirthankara, the last and greatest of the savior beings. According to Jain writings, Mahavira descended from heaven, committed no sin himself, and through meditation, freed himself from all earthly desires. Jainism is a religion of extreme legalism, for one attains his own salvation only through the path of asceticism (rigid self-denial). There is no freedom in this religion, only rules, primarily the Five Great Vows, the renunciation of: 1) killing living things, (2) lying, (3) greed, (4) sexual pleasure and (5) worldly attachments. Women are to be avoided entirely because they are thought to be the cause of all kinds of evil. Like all false religion, Jainism is incompatible with biblical Christianity. First, the Bible condemns the worship of any other god apart from Jehovah, the true and living God. “I am the Lord your God…You shall have no other gods before Me” (Exodus 20:2,3). “I am Jehovah, and there is none else, no god beside Me” (Isaiah 45:5). Mahavira was not a god at all, but a man. Like all men, he was born, he sinned, and he died. He did not reach sinless perfection. Only one Man has done that, the Lord Jesus Christ who “was in all points tempted just as we are, yet without sin” (Hebrews 4:15).

Build your own FREE website at Tripod.com Share: Facebook Twitter Digg reddit document.write(lycos_ad['leaderboard']); document.write(lycos_ad['leaderboard2']); Quel Est Jainism? E. Erickson Jainisme commence par un souci(une entreprise) sérieux pour l'âme humaine dans son rapport avec les lois dirigeant l'existence dans l'univers, avec d'autres créatures vivantes et à son état futur propre dans l'éternité. Tout d'abord, c'est une religion du coeur : la règle d'or est Ahimsa ou la non-violence dans toutes les parties d'une personne - mentale, verbale et physique. Jains ont la compassion profonde à toutes les formes de vie. Jainisme offre un calme, le mode de vie primordialement sérieux, une insistance culturelle sur la compassion, une société d'éthique qui a dramatiquement(radicalement) changé le monde et continuera à effectuer le changement. Jainism est un mode de vie écologiquement responsable qui est non violent dans la pensée, l'action et l'acte. Jina et l'Âme Le "Jains" est les disciples du Jinas. "Jina" signifie "littéralement le Conquérant". Lui qui a vaincu l'amour et la haine, le plaisir et la douleur, l'attachement et l'aversion et a ainsi libéré ` his' l'âme des karmas obscurcissant la connaissance, la perception, la vérité et la capacité, est un Jina. Le Jains se réfère au Jina comme Dieu. Les origines de Jainism En provenant(En étant originaire) sur le sous-continent indien, Jainism - ou, plus correctement, le Jain Dharma - est une des religions les plus vieilles de sa patrie et en effet du monde. Jainism a des origines préhistoriques datant auparavant 3000 av. J.-C et avant le début de culture Indo-aryenne.

Jainism From Encyclopedia Thelemica Jump to: navigation search Template:Religion Jainism , traditionally known as Jain Dharma, is an ancient religion known since early recorded times as an independent faith and philosophy. It is based more immediately upon the teachings of Mahavira (599 - 527 BC), or Lord Mahavira to Jains. According to belief, Jain philosophy is an understanding and codification of eternal universal truths which at times lapse among humanity, but later reappear through the teachings of human beings who have gained enlightenment or omniscience (Keval Gnan). In this part of the universe, in the present half cycle of time, the philosophy is believed to have first been given to humanity by Lord Rishabha. Evidence from the Indus Civilization (c. 3000 - 1500 BC) seems to attest to its early existence as shown through seals and other artifacts unearthed since the civilization's discovery in 1921. Contents Overview of Jainism Digambaras and Shvetambaras Jain cosmology Beliefs and practices ... Document Source Overview of Jainism Jainism teaches that every single living thing is an individual and eternal soul which is responsible for its own actions. Jains see their faith as teaching the individual to live, think and act in ways that respect and honor the spiritual nature of every living being to the best of one's human abilities. Jains view God as the unchanging traits of the pure soul, chief among them being Infinite Knowledge, Perception, Consciousness, and Happiness (Ananta Gnana, Darshan, Chaitanya, and Sukh). The universe itself is eternal, having no beginning and no end. (Hence, it is said that Jainism is a religious path which does not include the a concept of a creator God).

Shah Glimpses of the October-December 2010 Issue Quotations from scriptures: Acharya Umasvati, in the ninth chapter of TATTVAARTH SUTRA, discusses the stoppage of influx (SAMVAR) and shedding (NIRJARA) of karmas. These aspects too involve mutual interactions between soul and matter. There is one more important aspect of these interactions. Although the animate as well as inanimate environment influence the events in the life of a worldly being a certain extent, the stoppage of influx and shedding of karma occur due to the self-endeavor of the worldly being. In the present segment, Acharya Umasvati discusses rational conduct (asceticism) for the sake of shedding of karmas.
