Jewish Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 Jainism begins with a serious concern for human soul in its relationship with the laws governing existence in the universe with other living beings and to its own future state in eternity. First and foremost it is a religion of the heart the golden rule is Ahimsa or nonviolence in all parts of a person mental verbal and physical. Jains have deep compassion for all forms of life. Jainism offers a quiet overwhelmingly serious way of live a cultural insistence oncompassion a society of ethics that has dramatically changed the world and will contine to effect change. Jainism is an ecologically responsible way of life which is nonviolent in thought action and in deed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
