JAINISM

Jainism upholds non violence as the Supreme religion, thought, word and deed.All life is mutually supportive. the nights that have departed will never return. they are profitable for one,who is given to Dharma(righteousness)MAHAVEER UTTARADHYYAN14/25.                                                    I grant forgiveness to all living beings,may all living beings grant me forgiveness,my frienship is with all living beings, my enmity is totally non existent.                                                                            may be the whole cosmos be blessed,may all beings engage in each others well beings, may all weakness ,sickness,and faults diminish and vanish. may every one and every where be healthy, prosper, blissful and peaceful.    the human body is a veritable prison for ATMAN(SOUL) . IT IS A FOLLY  TO BE ATTACHED TO IT. birth is the mother, death father,mental and physical sufferings brothers,and decrepitude is friend of the living beings in lost stage. and yet  there is  love  for the body.The life of the house holder has its limitations from the ultimate  point  of view  ---one has to reflect on the past and future and give up all attachment and aversion. desires are a bottomless depth and only lead to further travails in this worldly whirlpool.fire burns when fed with fuel and is extinguished for want of it.but it is surprising that the terrible fire infatuation blazes strongly in either way.
