________________ 136 JAIN JOURNAL: VOL-XXXIX, NO. 3 JANUARY.. 2005 Is this Anekānta?. To understand and practise it we will have to understand it with a neutral mind. It has to be understood in the Anekānta way and not in the Ekānta way as has been made for centuries together. I would like to conclude by quoting the 17th century Jainācārya Sūri that “now a days people who call themselves Jains are quarrelsome and stubborn in their false opinion. Such persons, to prove themselves correct, misinterpret the doctrines of the Tirthankaras by exhibitionism. Such persons, to conceal their own faults and to prove themselves correct, act against the doctrines of religion and as such do not speak the truth. Under such circumstances, people search the religion, but do not get it”. Jain Education International ernational For Private & Personal Use Only For Private & P www.jainelibrary.orgPage Navigation
