They [scil. those who think in this way] become spotless, pure, full of Åiva nature. He should understand [himself] as having one flavour [with Åiva], being [as he now is] joined with Åiva. The whole universe, moving and unmoving is thought of as being like Åivaā�.

General definition (in Jainism)
: The University of Sydney: A study of the Twelve ReflectionsøéÄå²µ²¹»å±¹±šį¹£a (ą¤°ą¤¾ą¤ą¤¦ą„ą¤µą„ą¤·) refers to ādesire and dislikeā�, according to the 11th century JƱÄnÄrį¹ava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Åubhacandra.āAccordingly, āYogis continually drive away desire and dislike (°łÄå²µ²¹»å±¹±šį¹£a) through equanimity or through the state of non-attachment , and they drive away wrong faith through the application of right faith. Those who know the self certainly destroy mental darkness, which is produced by the great quantity of ignorance [and] is a barrier to reality, with the sunbeams of knowledgeā�.
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, āself-relianceā�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
