Similar to Buddhism, Jainism also stands against the Vedic and Brahminic religion in its early period. In later stages, the Jainas incorporated some trends of Brahmanical religion. The Jainas especially Nirjaras believed that expiations helps in the exhaustion of Karmas. Expiation by self-degradation may be a technique of speeding up the ripening of Karmas. 厂奴迟谤补办峁泃补峁単补 states that Tapas destroys all Karmas.^[1] The 鲍迟迟补谤腻诲丑测腻测补蝉奴迟谤补 considered that Tapas is a path of liberation.^[2] This treatise defines 笔谤腻测补艣肠颈迟迟补 as 腻濒辞测补峁嚹乺墨丑腻墨测补峁� (self-reflection).^[3] The Jainas considered that austerity is an expiatory rite. Um膩sv膩ti, the commentator of 罢补迟迟惫腻谤迟丑补蝉奴迟谤补 interpreted that 笔谤腻测补艣肠颈迟迟补 includes not only the internal confession and repentance, but also the act of external atonement rites like fasting, Tapas etc.^[4] The 颁丑别诲补蝉奴迟谤补蝉 explain 笔谤腻测补艣肠颈迟迟补s in a very detailed manner. According to this, the purity of a 厂腻诲丑补办补 is extremely essential in Jainism and this purity helps them to move towards the final goal of liberation. The 厂腻诲丑补办补, who commits certain lapses of this purity, falls from liberation. Hence the 颁丑别诲补蝉奴迟谤补蝉 make clear the importance of expiation. In the case of very grave sins, it prescribed expiations in the form of strict punishments. The insulting of a 罢墨谤迟丑补峁卥补谤补 or the 厂补峁単丑补 and a murder are to be considered as major sins. The canons of Jainas prescribe Para帽cita, the uppermost expiation. Those who undergo this expiation, have to stay behind lonely in the province. One more expiation is called 笔补谤颈丑腻谤补. A monk, who is undergoing this expiation, should dismiss himself from the companionship of other monks and even co-dining with them.^[5] Equaling to Buddhism the expiatory rites are mainly recommended for ascetics. The ritualistic nature of expiation has not been seen in Jaina canons. They typically suggest Tapas in the form of self-degradation as a major expiation. The study of expiation in Buddhism and Jainism reveals that they have not acquired the ritualistic nature. The religious studies expose that each religions provide the concept and praxis of expiation in a meticulous way. A peep into the world religious literature is useful to recognize this fact.
