In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: HereNow4u: Jain Dharma ka Maulika Itihasa (2)Vinayavādī (विनयवादी) refers to “humility/veneration oriented doctrines” as found in the Sūtrakṛtāṅga (Sūtrakṛtāṃga), one of the Dvādaśāṅgī (twelve Aṅgas) of Jainism.—Sūtrakṛtāṅga is the second Āgama of the Dvādaśāṅgī. Sūtra kṛatāṃga has 2 Śruta skaṇdhas. The first Śruta skaṇdha has 16 and the second has 7 lectures; in all 23 chapters, 33 topics, 33 sub topics and 36000 verses. [...] It consists of the debates of 108 Action oriented (kriyāvādī) doctrines, 84 Inaction (akriyāvādī) doctrines, 76 Ignorance (ajñānavādi) doctrines and 32 Humility /veneration (vinayavādī) doctrines. Thus, it discussed about 363 other doctrines. Analysing and reviewing all these doctrines, it is concluded that non-violence is the keystone of any religion and is the best attribute.
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.
