His work recounts the popular 搁腻尘补 story as known from the older work 搁腻尘腻测补峁嘺 (written by 痴腻濒尘墨办颈). Various chapters [mentioning 岣宎惫颈迟迟丑补] are dedicated to the humongous battle whose armies (known as 补办峁耻丑颈峁嚹玸) consisted of millions of soldiers, horses and elephants, etc.
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, 鈥榮elf-reliance鈥�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
