Accordingly: “[...] by daily marches of one yojana, following the cakra, the Cakrin arrived at 岵īٳ. The King established a camp nine yojanas broad and twelve yojanas long on the bank of the eastern ocean. [...] Concentrating his mind on the deity, the 岵īٳ-kumāra, he engaged in four days� fast, the foremost door to the accomplishment of desires�.

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.
