GLOBALIZATION
• Jainism is not a universalizing religion as
is does not have an evangelical aspect
• Jainism will most likely remain in India but temples do exist in the US • 120,000 Jains in the US (although
anyone who follows non-violence is
seen as a fellow Jain) • 80 Jain temples in the US and Canada
