28. Guruji, what is the point in living, when everything we do just
accrues karma? Is there any way out of it? Undertaking every action with discrimination and a sharp

Certain sects of Jains believe in havans and poojas. For example, Digambar Jains believe in havans and Svetambara Jains do murti pooja (idol worship).
32. Do Jains have any system of Gods like the trinity of Brahma

All souls have 8 karmas. Anyone who destroys these 8 karmas becomes God. When four karmas are destroyed, one becomes an arihanta (self
