________________ CONCLUSIONS • I learned that Jainism shares similar aspects and views with many religions • Jainism further accentuates the importance of avoiding harm to others and oneself • AHA: Jainism began before any other religion in India and is thus not a branch of Hinduism or Buddhism (common misbelief). • Main take away: It is important to learn about other world religions besides your own as it opens your eyes to other cultures and helps you gain an understanding of views held by those of different nationalities.
