: archive.org: The Jaina Iconography

Sa峁僷arya峁卥膩sana (啶膏�傕お啶班�嵿く啶權�嵿�曕ぞ啶膏え) or simply Sa峁僷arya峁卥a refers to one of the various 腻蝉补苍补蝉 (postures) commonly depcited in Jain iconography.鈥擥lossed as Padm膩sana, which, in the Jaina Yogic texts, is described as a posture in which the Jaina or any devotee squats on a seat with legs folded, the right leg being on the left thigh and the left leg on the right thigh, while the eyes are fixed upon the tip of the nose. The position of the arms varies. There is a religious prescription to the effect that the image of Mah膩v墨ra, 峁氠梗abhan膩tha and Nemin膩tha should be constructed in this posture or 膧sana. The extant sculptures of the T墨rtha峁僰aras mentioned do not always support the injunction.

context information

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.
