________________ 1896 JAINA BIBLIOGRAPHY P. 136. Jain ethics aims at the realization of Nirvāṇa or Mokşa, which means that the soul is to be completely liberated from the shackles of Karma, which is to be achieved by observing a code of morality. Jainism lays down five basic vows : (i) ahimsa (abstention from violence); (ii) satya (abstention from false speech); (iii) asteya (abstention from theft); (iv) brahmacarya (abstention from sex pleasure); (v) aparigraha (abstention from greed for worldly possessions). All the souls are equal ; therefore, the sanctity and dignity of life in its various forms must be maintained. 2839 Brahmachari SITAI PRASAD-Jainism : A Key to True Happiness. Jaipur, 1951.
