Quick answers
Jainism — common questions
What is the fundamental principle of the Jain religion?
The fundamental and supreme principle of Jainism is Ahimsa (non-violence): non-injury to all living beings in thought, word and deed. It shapes every part of Jain life, including diet, conduct and occupation.
Who is the founder of modern Jainism, and who was the first Tirthankara?
Rishabhanatha (Adinath) is revered as the first of the 24 Tirthankaras. Bhagwan Mahavira, the 24th and last Tirthankara, revitalised and organised Jain philosophy around 600 BCE.
What are the Three Jewels of Jainism?
The Three Jewels (Triratna) are the path to liberation: Samyak Darshan (right faith), Samyak Gyan (right knowledge) and Samyak Charitra (right conduct).
What is Navkarsi time and how is it calculated?
Navkarsi is the Jain pachkhan of taking food or water only 48 minutes after sunrise. Because it depends on local sunrise, it changes every day and differs by city — in Mumbai today it is 7:24 am, and Chauvihar (no food or water after sunset) begins at 6:09 pm.
Where are the major Jain pilgrimage sites?
Major Jain tirths are in India: Sammed Shikharji (Jharkhand), where 20 Tirthankaras attained moksha; Palitana and Girnar (Gujarat); Dilwara and Ranakpur (Rajasthan); and Shravanabelagola (Karnataka).
Do Jains believe in God as a creator of the universe?
No. Jainism rejects a creator God. The universe is eternal and governed by natural law; the divine is the perfected soul (Siddha or Arihant), whom Jains revere as the ideal to follow.
How can I find a Jain temple or dharamshala near me?
The Jain Religion lists 1,405+ Jain temples, derasars and dharamshalas across India with timings, phone numbers, directions and stay details. Search by city or state, or use "Jain temple near me".
