Jaya
1. Jamāli A prince of Khattiyakumdagāma. He belonged to Kosia(5) gotra.? He was son of Sudamsaņā(1) and husband of Piyadamsaņā.3 He renounced the world and became a disciple of Mahāvīra.
Afterwards he propounded at Săvatthi his new doctrine holding the w that whatever is being done should not be regarded as done; whatever is done, i.e., completed should be taken as done.Mahāvira held that what is passing through the process of performance and is shortly going to be completed can be taken as performed from a particular view point. Jamāli differed from him in this matter. He observed that when a thing is definitely done, then and then alone it can be taken as done. A thing which is still in the process of being done cannot be taken as such. Thus Jamāli was an extremist, absolutist. He is regarded as the first Niņhava. After death he was born as a god of Lamtaa-Kappa.
