Answer 2

Jainism is considered world’s most peaceful religion. Its main goal is the liberation of the soul from the cycle of birth and death (Maya). To achieve moksha or liberation of the soul, one must observe five great vows:

Ahimsa or Ahinsa (Non-Violence)

Satya (Truth)

Asteya or Achaurya (Not stealing)

Brahmacharya (Celibacy)

Aparigraha (Non-possessiveness)

These five great vows must be strictly followed by the monks. There is some concession in strictness of these vows for the householders.

1. Ahimsa or Ahinsa (Non-Violence):

Ahimsa or Non-Violence is the fundamental or cardinal principle of Jainism. That’s why Jainism is considered to be the most peaceful religion in this world. In Jainism, non-violence is the highest religious duty.

This is the first major vow taken by the Jains, that is to cause no harm to any living being on this planet, whether it is a human being or animal or plants or tiny microorganisms.

Furthermore, non-violence is not constrained to physical violence. Jainism also emphasises non-violence also in speech and in thought.

It is believed that causing violence in any form to any living being creates bad Karma which affects one’s rebirth, future well-being and suffering
