JAINA CONVENTION 2017
Jain Nelegion and Science
Dr. Sudhir Vadilal Shah
Jain philosophy is supposed to be the oldest of all philosophies, older than vedant and Buddhism. . References of Lord Adinath are found in holy Vedas. Also references are found about Jain deities in other vedic scriptures.
Jain Darshan - or Jain philosophy is a complete philosophy. It is perfectly logical and explains almost everything about the world and its functioning. It offers perfect knowledge, way of life and ethics and precise steps of liberation. It has a classic karmic theory and has its own philosophic theory of relativity. It has looked upon ecology balance carefully. By following Jain doctrine world peace can be achieved.
Omniscient Lord Mahavir, out of compassion, applied the Gyana and created a path basically for the spiritual uplift and liberation of the soul. In addition, this path also leads to physical well being, mental peace, emotional control and thus total health of an individual, without any doubt.
What he preached, has turned out to be permanent and absolute truth - hence the super science. He was the greatest scientist the earth has ever seen. His preaching and teachings are compatible with principles of the modern science : i.e. physics, biology, chemistry, psychology, astronomy, physiology and medicine etc.
Actually, science is merely one part of Jain religion. If we take science, then right from atomic science to biological sciences, from mathematics to astronomy , from laws of motion to speed of particles, from psychology to precise classification of living beings, from music and its effects to effects of penance on positive health----------- we would find everything depicted in Jain religion and philosophy. Interestingly, the language is of a religion, but knowledge is of pure science. Science applied for the liberation of human being! For example, following has been taken from the 5th chapter of Tatvarthadhigam Sutra ( the first ever text book of science of mankind ) written / compiled by Rev. Acharya Shri Umaswatiji. in the first century.These verses talk about the atomic science.
