  • Mount Abu, Dilwara Temples: Vimala Vasahi
    Mount Abu, Dilwara Temples: Vimala Vasahi Photographs from the American Institute of Indian Studies Produced by the Shraman Foundation About this book / virtual exhibition The group of Jain temples at Dilwara on Mount Abu, in southwestern Rajasthan, is celebrated for the astoundingly detailed marble sculpture that covers nearly every inch of the temples’ interiors. Using photographs in the collection of the American Institute of Indian Studies, this book [/ virtual exhibition] explores the oldest of these temples, the Vimala Vasahi. By tradition the temple was founded between 1031 and 1032 C.E., though most of the building we see today was constructed in the mid- twelfth century and repaired in the early fourteenth. Text by Katherine Kasdorf. Additional research by Andrew More. Photographs copyright of the American Institute of Indian Studies. © 2014 Shraman South Asian Museum and Learning Center Foundation Mount Abu, Dilwara Temple Complex, Vimala Vasahi Temple AIIS 030209 © American Institute of Indian Studies The subdued exterior of the Vimala Vasahi on Mount Abu starkly contrasts with the temple’s opulent interior. Here, tucked into the close space of the Dilwara temple compound, we catch a glimpse of the walls that surround the oldest temple of the group, built largely in the mid-twelfth century. Beneath the shallow domes seen in the middle of the photograph are the temple’s famous sculptural ceilings; each pinnacle seen along the peripheral wall marks the sacred space of a Jina enshrined within the courtyard’s subsidiary shrines. The stepped pyramidal towers of the temple’s enclosed hall and sanctum rise above the surrounding structures, marking the importance of the spaces below in the ritual hierarchy of the temple.

  • Concept of God in Jainism
    Concept of God in Jainism Jainism believes that the universe and all its substances or entities are eternal. It has no beginning or end with respect to time. The universe runs on its own accord by its own cosmic laws. All the substances change or modify their forms continuously. Nothing can be destroyed or created in the universe. There is no need for someone to create or manage the affairs of the universe. Hence Jainism does not believe in God as a creator, survivor, and destroyer of the universe. However, Jainism does believe in God, not as a creator, but as a perfect being. When a person destroys all his karmas, he becomes a liberated soul. He resides in a perfect blissful state in Moksha. He possesses infinite knowledge, infinite vision, infinite power, and infinite bliss. This living being is a God of the Jain religion. Every living being has the potential to become God. Hence Jains do not have one God, but Jain Gods are innumerable and their number is continuously increasing as more living beings attain liberation. Jains believe that since the beginning of time every living being (soul) because of its ignorance, is attached with karma. The main purpose of the religion is to remove this karma through self-knowledge and become a liberated soul. There are many types of karma. However, they are broadly classified into the following eight categories: 1. Mohniya karma It generates delusion in the soul in regard to its own true nature, and makes it identify itself with other external substances. 2.

  • Jainism in Medieval India (1300-1800) Prologue
    JAINISM IN MEDIEVAL INDIA (1300-1800) PROLOGUE - English Translation by S.M. Pahedia It is essential to weigh the contemporary social and political background while considering the conditions and thriving of Jainism in mediaeval India. During this period, Indian society was traditionally divided into Hindu and Jain religion. Buddhism had well-nigh disappeared from Indian scenario. The Indian socio-cultural infrastructure faced sufficient change owing to the influence of Islam that infiltrated into India through the medium of the Arab, the Turk, the Mughal and the Afghan attacks. Though the new entrants too were by and large divided into Sunni, Shiya and Sufi sects, they were all bound firmly to Islam. Ofcourse, Islam brought in new life-values and life-styles in Indian life owing to which the inevitability for reconsidering the shape of social structure and traditional-philosophico facets was felt, perhaps very badly. And this very condition caused rise of some new sects like Bhakti, Saint and Sikh invigorated primarily by the Vedantist, Ramanuja, Madhav, Nimbark, Ramanand Chaitanya, Vallabha etc. With this cultural background, centuries old Digambara and Shavetambara amnay (tradition) was telling its own separate tale. Fore more than one reason, these branches were further divided into sects, sub-sects, ganas , gachchas , anvayas , sanghas & C. as time rolled by. Same way, Bhattaraka, Chaityavasi, Taranpanth, Sthanakvasi practices came into view introducing their own religious formalities, life-fashions, code of conduct, and to some extent the philosophical views. Such being the condition, Jainism of medioeval India witnessed its wide extension. At the same time, it met with certain difficulty also.
