Further that "The Kayotsarga posture' is peculiary Jaina. It is posture not of sitting but of standing. In the Adipurana a Book XV Vol III Kayotsarga posture is described in connection with the penences of Rishbha. A standing image of Jina Rishbha Kayotsarga posture on slab showing four such images assignable to the 2nd century A. D. in the Curzon Museum of Archaeology, Mathura is reproduced in figure 12. Among the Egyptian sculptures of time of the early dynasties there are standing statues with arms hanging on two sides. Although these early Egyptian statues and archaic Greek Kaurai show nearly the same pose, but they lock the jealing of abandon that characterises the standing figures on the Indus seal and images of Jainas in the Kayotsarga posture. The name Vrishbha means bull and bull is the emblem of Jina Rishabha.1 arthAt - sindhu ghATI kI aneka mudrAoM meM aMkita na kevala baiThI huI devamUrtiyAM yoga mudrA haiM aura usa sudUra atIta meM sindhu ghATI meM yoga mArga ke pracAra ko siddha karatI haiM, balki khar3I devamUrtiyA~ bhI yoga kI kAyotsarga mudrA meM haiM aura ye kAyotsarga dhyAna mudrAeM vizeSatayA jaina haiM / zrAdipurANa meM isa kAyotsarga mudrA kA ullekha vRSabha yA RSabhadeva ke tapazcaryA ke sambandha meM bahudhA huA hai| eka sIla para cAra khar3I mUrtiyAM kAyotsarga mudrA meM RSabha kI aMkita haiM / yaha ( mathurA ke kaMkAlI TIle se prApta ) IsA kI dUsarI zatAbdI kI jina RSabha kI na0 12 kI pratimA se milatI haiM / jo pratimA purAtattva vibhAga ke karjana myujiyama mathurA meM surakSita hai / 1. 2.

This wrong theory originates because these writers have taken Vardhmana Mahavira as the founder of Jainism. This is not a fact. It is true that the historicity of the other Jain slabs lies burried in the lap of harry times long before history came in to existance, but at least there is a certain amount of historicity regarding Parshwanatha the 23rd Tirthankra. The creed had already originated and spread and Mahavira propcgated it within historic time and that it is probably the reason why the mistake has been made by some of the eminent scholars whose name however need not be mentioned here. arthAt prAdhunika kucha lekhakoM ne yaha likhakara eka sAdhAraNa bhUla kI hai ki (vaidika) brAhmaNadharma ke viruddha asaMtoSa kI bhAvanAeM phaila jAne ke kAraNa jainadharma kI utpatti huI / isa g2alata dhAraNA kA sUtrapAta isalie huA ki unhoMne vardhamAna-mahAvIra ko jaina dharma kA prarvataka mAna liyA, para yaha tathya ThIka nahIM hai| yaha satya hai ki anya tIrthaMkaroM ke aitihAsika pramANa-jina pratimAeM itihAsa kAla zurU hone se bahuta pahale lambe kAla kI avadhi se nIce dabI par3I haiM / parantu teisaveM tIrthakara pArzvanAtha ke bAre meM to nizcita aitihAsika pramANa pAye jAte haiM / ataH jainadharma kI utpatti evaM prasAra bahuta pahale hI ho cukA thA aura mahAvIra ne isakA atyadhika pracAra kiyA thaa| yahI kAraNa hai ki isa prakAra kI galata dhAraNA kaI khyAti prApta vidvAnoM se ho gii| una vidvAnoM kA nAma denA yahAM Avazyaka nahIM hai| uparyukta vivecana se aura jainAgamoM se bhI pramANita hai ki jainadharma na kevala bhArata kA apitu vizva kA prAcInatama AdhyAtmika dharma hai| isakI prAcInatA ke sambandha meM kAfI pramANa die jA cuke haiM aura isakI vizeSa puSTi ke lie Age bhI likheNge| yadi saca kahA jAve to jainadharma vizva 1.

I have read sufficiently to warrant my saying that contribution which the Jains have culture is something unique. I personally believe that if only Jainism had kept its hold firmly in India, we would perhaps have had a more united India and certainly a greater India than today. Viewed as a religion the keynote of Jainism have been the realisation of the highest ideals that man's physical and moral nature points out as his final goal and which incidentally is the cardial canon of Univarsalism The Pali Sutras confirm good deal of what is contained in the Swetambera Jain canon. The ancient Jain sculptures of Mathura, dating from the first century A.D. guarantee the antiquity and authenticity of many of the Jain tradition. It is generally believed that there were Jain monks before Mahaveera belonging to the order founded by Parswanath..........

________________ siMghu-sauvIra meM jainadharma 201 Jesus first trip to India The manuscript its narration of the life of Jesus by saying that at the age of 13 he crossed Sind and established himself in the chosen land of God. His fame spread rapidly throughout the region north of Sind and, when he traversed the Ainjab (Punjab) the land of the five rivers the devotees of the God Jaina implored him the stay with them. But he left them and walked towards Jagannath in the land of Orissa where the remains of Vyasa-Krish were. There he was received with great joy by the priests of Barhma who taught him to read derstand the Vedas, to redeem himself through prayer, to explain the Holy Scriptures to the people and to expel the spirit of evil from the human body and return it to human form. Jesus lived six years in Jagannath Rajagriha, Benares and other holy cities, every-body liked him and lived in peace with the Vaishyas and Shudras, to whom he taught and Holy Scriptures. ----Jesus made his first enemies when he talked about the equality of men. The Brahmins insisted him to abandon the company of the Shudras and to embrace the Brahmin religion, but Jesus refused and went to preach to the Shudras against the Brabmins and Kashatriyas. He gravely condemned the doctrine that gives men the power to rob other men of their human rights, and taught that God had not established differences between his sons, all of whom he loved equally. The Brahmin priests hated him for this and with the intention of capturing him and putting him to death sent their servants in search of him. But Jesus was warned of danger by the Shudras. He left Jagannath by night reached the mountains and established himself in the land of the Gautamites. .... Having perfectly mastered the Pali language, he devoted himself to the study of the sacred serolls of the Sutras and within six years was qulified to explain them.

Litt (Agra) ne Akbar and Jainism nAma ke Chapter meM likhA hai ki-- "Jainism exercised even more profound influence on the thought and conduct of Akbar than christionity. He seems to have come into contact with Jain Scholars quite early...in 1568 A.D. He is said to have arranged a religious disputation between the Jain Scholars representing two rival scholars, of thoughts in 1582 A.D. He invited one of the greatest living Jain divines. Heera Vijaya Suri of Tapagachha from Gujrat to explain to him the principal of his religion. He was received with all possible honour and so impressed Akbar by his profound learning and ascetic character that the em pror practically gave up meat diet, released many prisoners and prohibited slaughter of Animals and birds for so many days in the year. Heera Vijaya Suri remained at the court for two years, was given the title of Jagat Guru' and was placed by Abul'-Fazal among the twenty-one top-ranking learned men at Akbar's court, supposed to be acquainted with the mysteries that of both the worlds. Subsequently several other Jain scholars invited the empror, prominent among them being Shanti Chandra, Vijay Sain Suri, Bhanu Chandra Upadhya, Harish Suri and Jaisome Upadhyaya. A few Jain teachers of noted continued to reside permanently at the court in 1591, the em pror having heard of the virtues and saintly aminence of Jinchandra Suri of Khartar Gachha school invited him to the court. Travelling from Cambay (Khambhat) on foot, like other Jain monks, he reached Lahore in 1591 A.D. and was respectfully received by the em pror like Heera-Vijay Suri, he refused to accept costly gifts and presents and explained to Akbar the doctrines of Jainism with so much success the empror was highly graftifies and conferred upon him the title of 'YugaPradhan' Jinchandra Suri spent four months of the rainy season at Lahore and in 1592 A.D. accompanied Akbar to Kashmir. He left Labore in 1593 A.D.. his influence on Akbar proved to be profound and lasting as that of Heer Vijay Suri, The teachings of Jain monks (munis) produced a markable change in Akbar's life. He gave up hunting of which he had been so fond in his early days and obstained almost wholly from meat diet. He restricted the slaughters of animals and birds, prohibiting completely for more than half the days of the year. He sent Farmans by the imperial injunctions." ___ akabara ne saba dharmoM ke svarUpa ko samajhane ke liye fatehapura sIkarI meM 'ibAdatakhAnA' (prArthanAgRha athavA dharmacarcAgRha) kI sthApanA kI thii| ibAdatakhAnA meM I0 sa0 1578 (vi0 saM0 1635) se hI bahuta dharmoM ke pratinidhi dharmacarcA meM bhAga lete the| jaise ki sUfI, dArzanika, gaat, ara, qrt faetur, 140, ofa(afa) ast (atat tahf), apar* (trfraai a), ra (ATS), TT, TT (778), ret ter ga 17 maaf # Traa

They dress in certain white clothes; they do not wear anything on the head; their beards are not shaved with a razor, but pulled out, because all the hairs are torn out from the beards, and like wise from the head, leaving none of them, save a few on the middle of the head upto the top, so that they left a very large bald space. 1. vattI-yaha dUsarA koI nahIM hai, kintu janasAdhu hI haiN| usa samaya ke adhikatara lekhakoM ne apanI pustakoM meM jainasAdhu ko vratI ke nAma se hI likhA hai| 'Diskripzana prApha eziyA' nAmaka pustaka, jo ki I0sa0 1673 meM prakAzita huI hai, usake pRSThoM 115, 213, 232 prAdi meM bhAratavarSa ke janasAdhunoM kA varNana pAyA hai, vaha vratI zabda se hI diyA hai| yahAM taka ki suprasiddha gujarAtI kavi zAmaladAsa ne bhI 'sUDA bahoterI' meM vratI zabda se hI jaina sAdhu kA ullekha kiyA hai / vratI zabda kI vyutpatti se artha vratamasyA-'stIti vratI (jinheM vrata ho ve) hotA hai / parantu rUr3hI se vratI zanda jainasAdhuoM ke liye hI prayukta hunA haiatha ca uparyukta patra meM jo vratI kA svarUpa tathA unakI mAnyatA kA ullekha kiyA ve saba jainazvetAMbara mUrti-pUjaka hIravijaya sUri Adi sAdhuoM ke sAtha barAbara mela khAte haiN| jaise 1. upAzraya meM rahanA, 2. bahuta tapazcaryA karanA, 3. sajIva (sacita) prAhAra kA tyAga, 4. praudhe se jamIna kA sAfa (paDilehaNa) karanA tAki jIva-jantu naSTa na hoM, 5. jagata anAdi hai| ityAdi-1

________________ mug2ala samrAToM para jainadharma kA prabhAva - They live in poverty, receiving in alms what the given has in excess of his wants for food. They have no wives. They have (the teaching of) their teaching sect written in the script of Gujrat (nagrilipi). They drink warm water, not from fear of catching cold, but because they say that water has a Soul, and that drinking it without, heating it kills its Soul, which God created, and that is a great sin, but when heated, it has not a Soul. And for this reason they carry in their hands certain brushes, which with their handles look like pencils made of cotton (bambaca) and these they use to sweep the floor or pavement whereon they walk, so that it may not happen that the Soul (anima) of any worm be killed. I saw their prior and superior (maggiore) frequently sweep the place before sitting down by reason of that scruple. Their chief Prelate or Supreme Lord may have about 100,000 men under obedience to him, and every year one of them is elected. I saw among them boys of eight or nine years of age, who looked like Angels. They seem to be men, not of India, but of Europe. At that age they are dedicated by their fathers to this Religion. They hold that the world was created millions of millions ago, and during that space of time God has sent twenty three Apostles, and that now in this last age, he sent another one, making twenty-four in all, which must have happened about two thousand years ago, and from that time to this they possess scriptures which the other (Apostles] did not compose. Father Xavier and I discoursed about that saying to them, this one (questo) [Seil apparently the last Apostle] concerned their Salvation. The Babansa aforesaid being interpreter, they said us, as we shall talk about that another time, but we never returned there although they pressed us earnestly, because we departed the next day." arthAt-pAdariyoM ke anukUla khaMbhAta zahara ke dhanADhya umarAva bAbanasA (bAbanazAha) ke sAtha huI bAtacIta ko pAdarI nIce likhe anusAra likhatA hai vaha 'vatI' ke nAma se pahacAne jAnevAle manuSyoM kA kaTTara zatru hai, una vratiyoM ke viSaya meM maiM kiMcita likhatA huuN| vratI loga sAdhunoM ke samudAya meM rahate haiM aura jaba maiM una ke sthAna (khaMbhAta) meM gayA taba una meM se lagabhaga pacAsa vyakti vahA~ the / ve amuka prakAra ke zvetavastra pahanate haiM, ve 1. peruzI ke pRSTha 52 meM se kiyA huA anuvAda / yaha jikara meMkalega ne bhI apane lekha ke pRSTha 65 meM kiyA hai| 2. bAbanasA, yaha pArasI gRhasya kA nAma hai usa kA zuddha nAma bahamanazA hogA aisA jJAta hotA hai / usa samaya ___ meM khaMbhAta meM pArasI gRhastha rahate the| 3. zvetavastra pahanane vAle sAdhu zvetAMbara mUrtipUjaka sAdhu the aura Aja bhI haiN| DhUDhiye sAdhu caubIsa ghaMTe apane muha para eka kapar3A (mukhavastrakA) bAMdhe rahate haiM isa mata kA prAdurbhAva ni0 saM0 1706 meM lavajI nAma ke sAdhU se humA thA / zuddha pAcAra vAloM kI pahacAna ke liye / isI varSa zvetAMbara sAdhunoM meM pIlI cAdara kA bhI pracalana huaa|
