Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the origins and development of the Gaina sect, shedding light on its intricate history and beliefs. It challenges the misconception that Gainism is merely an offshoot of Buddhism, instead arguing for its independent emergence and unique identity. The author meticulously examines the life of Mahavira, the last prophet of the Gaina church, placing him within the context of ancient Indian society and his contemporaries, including Buddha. Through a comparative analysis of their lives, teachings, and the historical context in which they lived, the author illuminates the distinctive characteristics of Gainism and its divergence from Buddhism. This book explores the core tenets of Gainism, such as the concept of the Atman (soul), the hylozoistic belief in the universality of souls, and the fivefold path to knowledge, culminating in omniscience. It also delves into the ethical framework of Gainism, including the principle of ahimsa (non-violence) and the five great vows that guide the conduct of its followers. By disentangling Gainism from misconceptions and providing a comprehensive understanding of its origins, philosophy, and practices, this book offers valuable insights into a significant yet often misunderstood religious tradition. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
