Jainism and Quality of Life

Quality of life is essential as the Jain texts describes. Positive thinking is to be followed in all aspects. Nonviolence, Truth, faith, Nonstealing, togetherness are few basic principles to be followed in life. Simple living, no bad habits like alcoholism, tobacco, drugs to be consumed. Pure Vegetarinism should be practiced throughout life.

            Quality of life respected by all. Shravaka dharma leads to success. Indriya Nigraha, Sayyam, tapa or dhyana are purifying the soul or Atma. No harmful acts should be curbed. Even Astra-Shastra (weapons) discarded. The human life itself is a blessings of God.

Jain texts explains VRITA-NIYAMA. It is a roadmap for all humanbeings. Satya (truth), Ahimsa (non violence), Achworya (Non stealing), Brahmacharya (celibacy) and Aparigraha (non possessiveness); These five objects are practices  by Shravaka-Shraviki Dharma. He or she wil be happy towards leading peaceful life. Jain religion is torch bearer to mankind. The obstacles, troubles, problems, sorrowwness are not harming to Jains as they solve these hurdles with courage. The mind is not disturbed. They do not harm anybody or anything living. Thus quality of life improves day by day. Cordial relationship with the society leads to happiness.

Reading religions, philosophical books enlightens conducts. Honest, sincere, faithful, obedient characters attracts in the society or family. Untoward acts should be discarded. The concentration on work inspires to reach the goal. The Jainism teaches a lot of theories to adopties life.

Life is a pleasure-share it

Life is a burden-bear it

Life is a duty-dare it

Life is a thorn crown-wear it.

Become Chakravarthin-King!

The life should be virtue of self sacrifice. More desire, unwanted acts to posses others treasure or assets should be curtailed. One should work hard, earn much and save the asset meaningfully.

Moksha margasya netaram

Bhettaram karma bhubram

Jnataram Vishwa tattvanam

Vande tadguna labdhaye

            May I be able to keep myself occupied with the study of the scriptures, the adoration of the Jinas, the company of the good, the talk of the virtues of those of noble conduct, speak sweet and keeping silence about the faithings of others, and with the contemplation of the nature of the self, till I attain Liberation. SO long as I do not achieve Nirvana, may they Feet, O’ Lord Jina, stay enshrined in my heart and my heart remain absorbed in They Holy Feet!

This prayer is essential to enshrine the quality of life. The Jain religious books like Samayasara, Ratnakarandaka Shravakachara, Tatvartha Suthra, Adi Purana, Dhavala Triology, Bhakthamara Stuthi are to be read at the time of Swadhyaya. The personality should be pure. Follow the VRITHA NIYAMAS, Perform Asta Vidha Archana, Aradhanas. The quality of life will give a devine energy.

Doctors, Professors, Engineers, Economists, Enterprisers, Industrialists, Scientists, Employees, Students, Household women who belong jain community surely achieve what they dream. Jain life is NOBLE!
