General definition (in Jainism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Jainism碍谤颈测腻诲别惫补迟腻 (啶曕啶班た啶ぞ啶︵啶掂い啶�) is another name (synonym) for Kriy膩deva, one of the four classes of Gods (devas) according to Somasena in his Traivar峁噄k膩c膩ra. Somasena was a follower of the Digambara tradition and flourished in the 16th century. The Kriy膩devas are deities like fire, who, worshipped with oblations of havya, baked food etc., remove all calamities.
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.
