General definition (in Jainism)
: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection IMai峁冡箛areh膩 (啶啶傕ぃ啶班啶灌ぞ) refers to the Sanskrit Madanarekh膩 (one of the 16 Sat墨s), according to the 鈥�Madanarekh膩 sat墨 no sa峁僢a峁僤ha鈥� (dealing with the lives of Jain female heroes), which is included in the collection of manuscripts at the 鈥榁incenzo Joppi鈥� library, collected by Luigi Pio Tessitori during his visit to Rajasthan between 1914 and 1919.鈥擬ai峁冡箛areh膩 is the vernacularized form of Sanskrit Madanarekh膩, who features as one of the 16 Sat墨s or women who kept to virtue and faithfulness to their husbands despite malevolent attempts from other men (list here vss. 155ff.). [...] Madanarekh膩 is famous because she was a Sat墨 but also because she was the mother of Nami who is one of the four pratyekabuddhas (cf. Uttar膩dhyayanas奴tra chapter 9 and commentaries). But this episode of Nami鈥檚 story is not the focus here. For Sanskrit versions of Madanarekh膩 story see Madanarekh膩khy膩yik膩 ed. Bechardas Doshi with English introduction by n.M. Kansara, ahmedabad, 1973 (l. d. Series 39) or M. Bloomfield, The Life and Stories of the Jain Savior P膩r艣van膩tha, Baltimore, 1919, pp. 130ff.
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.
