In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: University of Cambridge: JainismṚṣṇḍ (ऋषिमण्डल) or Ṛṣṇḍstava is the name of a Tantric-like hymn in Sanskrit composed of 56 stanzas.—The Ṛṣṇḍ-stava starts with eight homage formulas and then goes on with the procedure of “assignment� to the various body parts, the drawing of magic diagrams, and the benefits from all these procedures in order to remove all sorts of obstacles. It is a teaching which should remain hidden from undeserving people. The Ṛṣis are the 24 Jinas. Neither the date of copy nor the name of the scribe are given.

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.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम� (ṃsṛt), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
