In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: The University of Sydney: A study of the Twelve Reflections (भवाब्ध�) refers to the “ocean of life�, according to the 11th century Jñānārṇava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Śubhacandra.—Accordingly, “All the connections arising from the ocean of life (-) are the abode of bad luck for human beings [and] thus, in the end, [the connections] are exceedingly tasteless�.
Synonyms: Bhavasamudra.

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.
