In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection IJinaprabhasūri (जिनप्रभसूरि) is the author of the Padmāvatīcaupaī (dealing with early teachers, Gods or Goddesses), which is included in the collection of manuscripts at the ‘Vincenzo Joppi’ library, collected by Luigi Pio Tessitori during his visit to Rajasthan between 1914 and 1919.—[...] In addition, Padmāvatī had a direct link with the Jinaprabhasūri’s life. According to some later stories, he was discovered as the successor of Jinasiṃhasūri thanks to her help. She also protected him against courtiers’ hostile actions at the Sultan’s court (see Vose for more details). Jinasiṃhasūri and Jinaprabhasūri continued the tradition of honouring Padmāvatī and gaining powers illustrated by Jinadattasūri, their famous predecessor in the kharataragaccha.
Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance’) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
