In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: archive.org: Jaina Yogaḍa (खेल्लु�) in both Sanskrit and Prakrit refers to an unknown plant species. This plant is classifed as ԲԳٲ-ⲹ, or “plants that are inhabited by an infinite number of living organisms�, and therefore are abhakṣya (forbidden to consume) according to Nemicandra (in his Pravacana-sāroddhāra v245-246). Those plants which are classified as ԲԳٲ-ⲹs (e.g., ḍa) seem to be chosen because of certain morphological peculiarities such as the possession of bulbs or rhizomes orthe habit of periodically shedding their leaves; and in general theyare characterized by possibilities of vegetative reproduction.

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.
