In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): (Jainism)尝补办峁补 (啶侧啷嵿し啷嵿く) refers to 鈥渢arget鈥� (for practicing shooting arrows), according to the L墨l膩vat墨s膩ra which was written by the thirteenth-century Jain poet, Jinaratna.鈥擜ccordingly, his retelling contains the phrase, [奴rdhvamu峁ａ弓ir adhod峁涐梗峁璱岣� (3.257c)], which describes Vatsar膩ja at the moment before he shoots the arrow. Vatsar膩ja鈥檚 fist is raised up above his head because he must point the bow up to a target above himself, and his gaze is directed down because he must sight the target by gazing at its reflection in a bowl of oil on the ground. A doll (辫补帽肠腻濒墨) called R膩dh膩 is the target (濒补办峁补) and she is placed in the middle of a rotating wheel which is suspended atop a high pillar (stambha). One can infer that the 鈥減iercing is upward鈥� (奴谤诲丑惫补惫别诲丑补) because Vatsar膩ja's arrow strikes her from below.
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.
