One should know that non-killing and equality of all living beings are the main principles of religion. - Sutrakrutang Sutra, 1-4-10 पंचिंदियाणि कोहं माणं मायं तहेव लोभं च । दुज्जयं चेव अप्पाणं सव्वमप्ये जिए जिय ।। - उत्तराध्ययन सूत्र, ९-३६ It is difficult to conquer the five senses as well as anger, pride, delusion and greed. It is even more difficult to conquer the self. Those who have conquered the self have conquered everything. - Uttaradhayayan Sutra, 9-36 सयं सयं पसंसता गरहंता परं वयं । जे उ तत्थ विउस्संति संसारं ते विउस्तिया ।। - सूत्रकृतांग सूत्र, १-२-२३ Those who praise their own views and condemn the world of others, only to show off their so-called learnedness, are indeed wandering in the worldly cycle of birth and death. - Sutrakrutang Sutra, 1-2-23 Jain Shresthi V.
