Truth and non-violence are as old as the hills." - Mahatma Gandhi "At the center of non-violence stands the principle of love." - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Bhagwan Mahavir taught that "all existing, living and breathing sentient creatures should not be slain, nor treated with violence, nor abused, nor tormented, nor driven away." - Acharang Sutra If we live by this principle of the propounder of Jainism, we will be at peace with ourselves and the world will be at peace. Whatever our religious tradition may be, let us celebrate Mahavir Jayanti (Janma Kalyanak) by recommitting ourselves to a simple but profound idea that all may embrace: Ahimsa. Page #49 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ AHIMSA - HOW TO PRACTICE * Be vegetarian * Be compassionate * Be tolerant * Co-operate rather than compete * Learn to forgive and forget * Don't engage in gossip or speak bad about anybody * Think well rather than bad about others + Do not tease or intentionally hurt someone's feeling * Show carefulness and awareness in any actions * Protect the environment * Increase knowledge about nature to respect & protect it * Minimize your desires and wants - don't be greedy * Do not waste food - only take as much as you can eat * Use energy wisely * Avoid anger and jealousy towards other Aspects of Violence (Himsa) - Sangrahanisutra 1663-64 According to the philosophy of the Jain religion, animals that are violent to one another are reborn in hell as well as men who practice cruelty. Each hell has a matching image. (1) Unreasoning tigers (2) Domesticated cheetah carrying a rodent (3) Bird of prey with a smaller bird in its beak (4) Gaja-Simha (mythical elephant-lion) with its elephant prey (5) Mongoose kills a snake (6) Seated couple and implies the violence of lovemaking. (7) A man shoots rabbits, a scene described as "human beings doing bloody deeds." (8) A big fish eats a little one, a scene described as "fish doing bloody deeds" Page #50 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ ESSENCE OF JAINISM - NON-VIOLENCE Avoiding Violence Jain monks and nuns either cover their mouths or even wear masks over their mouths while delivering sermon, so that they do not accidentally breathe any living things. Some Jain monks cover their mouths to prevent harming insects and other small creatures when they talk "Do not injure, abuse, oppress, enslave, insult, torment, torture or kill any creature or living thing."- Mahavira Non-Violence (Ahimsa) Jains know that it is impossible to live their lives and avoid harm to liv ing creatures. Simple acts such as walking down the street may hurt some small living beings and hence monks carry a cloth or feather broom with them. Jain monks and nuns are not permitted to stay in any one place and so walk from one place to another since they cannot use any means of transportations Page #51 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ AHIMSA CONTINUUM "Proper Knowledge leads to True Compassion" "Padhamam Jnanam Tavo Daya" - Dasvaikalika Sutra Understanding various levels of violence is essential in practising Ahimsa Outward Political Economic MORE MASS VIOLENCE Genocide Mass Inaction Oppression Economici Gasoline Usage/ Violence Political Polletion Materialism Political / Economic War Violence "Just War Violence to Terrorism Environment Destructive Nationalism Resource/Energy Capital Consumption Homicile Punishment Rape Violence to Individuals Violence to Root Herbicides 5-Sense Violence to Vegetables Sport Hunting Non-Roots Violence to PearlePage #52 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ ANEKANTAVAD An (non) ek (one) ant (end) vad (ness) Simply put, avoiding a single absolute conclusion on non-absolustic thinking is Anekantavad Respect for the views of others Blind Faith Authoritative Absolustism Bias Dogma Multiplicity of View Points Page #53 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ TRIPLE A's of JAINISM Ahimsa - Non-Violence Respect, Reverence, Compassion, Forgiveness, In thoughts, Words and Deeds towards all living beings. For this reason Jains are vegetarians. Anekantvad - Multi Faceted Reality Respect for and seeking multiple view points. Truth has many facets. Jain encourage dialogue and harmony with other communities and faiths. Aparigraha - Non-Possessiveness Balancing our needs, desires, possessions, while staying detached from these possessions. The doctrine of Syadvada or relativity (multiplicity of view points) states that the expression of truth is relative to different viewpoints (Nayas). What is true from one point of view is open for discussion from another view. (Sammati Tark Prakaran) dhsyadvada truth be told: truth is silent Absolute truth is the sum total of all the different viewpoints that make up the universe. This is rooted in the doctrines of Anekantavada and Syadvada.

A preliminary knowledge of the divisions is necessary to understand time: 1 Samay = tiniest indivisible unit of time. Infinite Samay = 1 Avalika 256 Avalika = 1 Kshulakbhav (smallest possibie lifespan) 3825 Avalika = 1 second 16777216 Avalika = 1 Muhurat 48 minutes = 2 Ghadi = 1 Muhurat 30 Muhurat = 1 Ahoratra = 1 day and night (24 hours) 15 days and nights = 1 fortnight 2 fortnights = 1 month 2 months = 1 season 3 seasons = 1 Ayan 12 months = 1 year 5 years = 1 Yug 84 lakh years = 1 Purvang 84 lakh Purvang = 1 Purva 1 Purva = 70,560,000,000,000 years 1 Yojan = 8 miles or 12 kilometres 1 Palyopam = The time required to completely empty a well of volume 1 cubic Yojan tightly filled to the brim with the tiniest bits of hair which are put at the rate of 1 hair every 100 years. 1000 trillion (10 Crore x Crore) 10 Croda Crodi Palyopam = 1 Sagaropam 1000 trillion Sagaropam = 1 Avsarpinikaal 1000 trillion Sagaroparn = 1 Utsarpinikaal 2000 trillion Sagaropam = 1 Kaalchakra 1 Utsarpinikaal + 1 Avsarpinikaal = 1 Kaalchakra = one cycle of time Infinite Kaalchakra = 1 Pudgal Paravartan Kaal The past and the future consist of infinite Pudgal Paravartan Kaal. (Such is the unimaginably infinite extent of time.) Page #90 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ JAIN Contribution Mathematics Circumference of a circle = VIO x diameter area of a circle= 1/4 X circumference X diameter formulae gives Vio as the value of IT - Tattvartha-Sutra (150 AD) The Jains required very large numbers for their measurements of space and time. one purva = 70,560,000,000,000 years one Shirsha Prahelika = (8,400,000) 28 purvas This number contains 194 digits. The introduction of such large numbers led Jains to the conception of innumerable & infinity.

Therefore, Arihanta means a destroyer of the enemies. These enemies are inner desires known as passions. These include anger, ego, deception, and greed. A Tirthankar is also called a Jina which means conqueror of passions. Arthan Bhagwant Siddhos Siddhas are the liberated souls who have ended the cycle of birth and death. They have achieved the ultimate state of salvation and eternal happiness. They have complete knowledge, perception and Infinite power. They are formless and have no passions, therefore are free from all temptations. Acharyas They are our spiritual leaders. The message of Lord Mahavira is carried on by them. They have in-depth knowledge of scriptures and high level of spiritual excellence. The responsibility of the spiritual welfare rests on their shoulders. They have the ability to lead the monks, nuns and four fold order. Upadhyays 'Up' means close and 'dhyaya' means study. Updhyayas are those monks who learn 11 anga and 12 upanga scriptures which teach them the basis of the Jain religion. They impart their knowledge to the devotees and teach Sadhus and Sadhvis. They are thus spiritual teachers. Sadhus & Sadhvis When householders become detached from the worldly aspects of life and get the desire for spiritual uplift, they become sadhus (monk) or sadhvis (nun). After given Deeksha by the Acharyas - a initiation ceremony, householder becomes a sadhu or sadhvi. They observe 5 major vows, control 5 senses, 4 passions, 3 medias and follow 10 dharmas.

Page #297 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ History of Various Craditions Indian Tradition of Sainthood Shramana is one of most ancient ascetic traditions of India. A Shramana is one who renounces the worldly affairs and leads an ascetic life for the purpose of spiritual development and Viberation. The older Aarhat Dharma or Nirgranth Dharma was derived from the original word Saman. Jain literature credits the beginning of this tradition to Rushabhdev. The Sangh of Mahavir Tirthankar Mahavir swami established Chaturvidh sangh- the four community pillars of Jainism. The sangh pillars are Male monks (sadhu), Female monks (sadhavi), Male family persons (shravak) and Female family persons (shravika). Shwetamber and Digambar Split A terrible twelve-year famine occurred in Magadha in 293 B.C. and origins of the great schism can be traced to this event. Reliable date is 293 B.C. based on reign of Chandragupta Maurya. Acharya and Upadhyayas An Acharya heads the fourfold Jain community. He/She guides, defines rules, does administration of saint order, and directs the community (sangh) in the proper direction. Upadhyayas are sadhus who have acquired a special knowledge of the Jain canons and philosophical systems. They teach Jain scriptures to sadhus and sadhvis. Shwetamber Murtipujak Jain Tradition -Tapagachh Current Acharyas are falling between the 75th to 8oth in the line after Shri Sudharma Swami. The Murtipujak Sampradaya is split into Achalgachh, Khatargachh and others. The Tapagachh is by far the largest of these sects. The Digambar Tradition According to Digambar tradition, the breakup of Jain Sangh began with Vishakha, who was a disciple of Bhadrabahu. In 2nd century AD that Acharya Kundakunda set the Digambar tradition on a firm footing. Major sub-sects: 1. Bispanth, 2. Digambar Terapanth, 3. Taranapanth. Bispanth has a large following in many states. The Bispanth, in their temples, worship the idols of Tirthankars. The Bhattarak Tradition The Bhattarak tradition started around 1100 AD. Its primary purpose was to take cognizance of Sharavaks to lead them through right path of Dharma, Bhattarakas are mainly responsible for the religious preaching and propagation Khatargachh- Dadawadi Tradition Acharya Jindattasuri (1075-1154) was a renowned Acharya having a huge impact on Jain society. He formulated new rules and regulations. He revived the Khatargachh sect and inspired 500 shravaks and 700 shravikas for initiation Terapanth - Acharya Bhikshu Jain Dharma has given immense importance to the role of a guru. The visionary Acharya Shri Tulsi and the legendary scholar Acharya Shri Mahapragya have made great impact in modern times. It is only through Anupreksha that we begin to understand the deeper meaning of religion.

Page #349 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Compassion - Sambodhi "MEGH KUMAR STORY Once there was a forest-fire and all the animals ran to the clearing to avoid getting burned. The animals were pushed against each other due to limited space. One elephant who made it to the safe space had an itch on his leg so he lifted his leg to scratch his foot. In that very moment a rabbit being pushed in the crowd occupied the space under the lifted foot. When the elephant saw the timid rabbit he was moved by compassion and thus did not keep his foot down until the fire was extinguished. After 3 full days the fire was put out. Then the elephant tried to put his foot down, but due to prolonged stress and numbness he fell down and died. This incident is an exemplary epitome of compassion shown by an animal, proving time and again that not only humans but even animals have feeling of compassion.
