A GOOD ATTEMPT
A good attempt has been made by Dr Kothari Ajay Kumar Pukhraj. In his thesis 'The concept of Divinity with Special Reference to Jainism' which has been awarded the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Banaras Hindu University, to understand, at a glance the concept of Divinity in Hinduism. Sikhism, Christianity, Islam, and Zoroastrianism wherein a supreme divine is a creator sustainer, destroyer, benefactor, ruler of the Universe. However, the faith of the Buddha and Jaina traditions do not consider God as a creator, sustainer and destroyer but lay emphasis that each man is potential God (Divinity), I wish him all success,
