Sumati-Jñāna The so called Hinduism and Brahmanism have evolved from that Jina Root culture with misuse of Yajnyas, making them violent and brutal starting from Nara Megha to Gaja Megha to Ashwa Megha to Gow Megha to Aj Megha now and what not in name of religion and worship and all that by Vedic Brahmins! supposed to be the superiormost.
Virchand Raghavji Gandhi almost 110 years back through his shower of lectures in Chicago during the Parliament of World Religions and at other places made the world intellects know about this ancient pre-vedic Jain religion of Self-Restraint and Salvation. The German Experts took keen interest and many like Albrecht Weber, Wheeler, Gerhard Buehler, Hermann Jacobi, Leumann, Walter Schubring, James Todd, Helmut von Gleissner, Ludwig Eshdoch and some more took keen interest in not only studying it but also in spreading it's dogma by making that known to the Western world. With the Indus Yogi it was there in Germany for the first time in mid-sixtees that I heard of the Indus Bust and the Jina Mudra so also of the Pashupati seal that they were announced as Jina and not as Shiva. I could not answer then the questions for my own ignorance but now I realize the rich heritage we as Bharatiya possess. At that time of Controverse, alert experts could chose to take the
lternative method of reading the Indus Script. But every effort tried to drag that Script and Culture unfortunately in womb to the alleged Hindu and the Shavite influence only, so much so that some of the weights even were tried to be shown as the Shiv linga and Yoni by Shri M. S. Vats; though in vain.
Now with Indus Script written on the 10 seated Jina images and one seen on the Seed Indus Rock of Shravana Belagola leaves no doubt whatsoever that the Digamberism of the Jinas is the only Root culture of Indus Civilization that survived in a vast land of ancient Bharatvarsh; when scholars from all over World came to this light giving land to gain the knowledge of wise living learnings not only Script-wise but also to open their vision too, as Alexander himself took with him the Gymnosophist Kalyan Muni.
Indus Culture shows the Eternal value of Soul against the Material Gains, guiding humans of World to live with Humanity valuing all the lives around with compassion by giving equal importance to their survival and Souls as our fellow cohabitants, suffering around on this very Planet. The Indus Texts remind him always the warning showing the danger of reaping the deeds“ As you Sow so you Reap" in this world hence limit desires doing duties to make other's survival also possible as that soul deserves in Nature.
