Description: Jainism is a modern word to describe the ancient spiritual path of non-violence. The term Jain comes from the word ‘Jina’ whichmeans ‘spiritual victor’. It designates a person who is completely free of the inner vices – anger, ego, deceit, greed, fear, attachment,and hatred. Jainism is considered a rich and profound way of life embraced by a strong and largely affluent minority in India. Though the religion has produced world-class leaders and has propagated its philosophies for generations, little is known about it outside theSouth Asian continent.The primary purpose of this booklet is to provide a basic introduction of the Jain religion to the English-speaking Jain youth of NorthAmerica and other countries. It briefly covers the various aspects of Jain philosophy, ethics, conduct, scriptures, religious holidays,prayers and symbols.
