________________
leave a margin in every field of our thought and activity. Whether we engage ourselves in gathering knowledge or wealth and fame, the relativity must always be an essential attribute in all our endeavours. We must remember that to share is to understand non-absolutism and herein lies the key to our character. Nonabsolutism makes our thinking flawless; flawless thoughts lead to flawless and relative speech and such speech is the vehicle of intellectual non-violence. The non-violent attitude does not permit us unnecessary accumulation and exploitation and our lives become free from binding attachment. Thus, Syādvāda is the formula for spiritual purification. The Jaina masters have said - ‘our salutation to the revered doctrine of Anekāntavāda, which is the preceptor of this whole universe and without which the conduct of the very worldly business itself is impossible'.
“Jeņa viņā loyassa vi vavahāro savvahā na nivvadai/ Tassa bhuvanekkaguruņo namo Anegantavāyassa //”
