In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: archive.org: The Jaina Iconography厂颈诲诲丑腻测颈办腻 (啶膏た啶︵啶оぞ啶た啶曕ぞ) is the name of the Yak峁峁嚹� accompanying 惭补丑腻惫墨谤补: the last of twenty-four T墨rtha峁僰aras or Jinas, commonly depicted in Jaina iconography.鈥敳巡钩竽灞鼓�, the twenty-fourth or the last Jina is the greatest of all the T墨rtha峁僰aras. His position is of unchallenged eminence in the Jaina religion, history and iconography. Being the Lion among the Jaina prophets, rightly given was his emblem of a lion. His Yak峁 spirits are respectively known as M膩ta峁単a and 厂颈诲诲丑腻测颈办腻. The Magadhan King 艢re峁噄ka or better known as Bimbis膩ra acts as his Chowri-bearer. His Kevala tree is called S膩la (L. Shorca robusta).
This Yak峁峁嚹� of 惭补丑腻惫墨谤补 in the account of the 艢vet膩mbaras, should ride a lion and have four hands carrying a book, Abhaya, Citrus, and lute (V峁嚹�). The Digambara counterpart of the goddess is represented as also riding upon a lion and holding a Varada-mudr膩 and book. The most important symbol connected with 厂颈诲诲丑腻测颈办腻 is her lion. This may be interpreted in the light of the same symbol as assumed by the Yak峁峁嚹�檚 master 惭补丑腻惫墨谤补. Her other symbol, such as a book and V墨峁嚹� (lute) would make her, in appearance, a Vidy膩dev墨. The custom or giving a lion to a Goddess of learning does not appear to be singular to the Jainas as we find the V膩g墨艣var墨 of Benares is seated on a lion鈥檚 back. 厂颈诲诲丑腻测颈办腻鈥檚 other symbol is a citrus and this is particularly indicative of her Yak峁峁嚹� nature.
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.

Sanskrit, also spelled 啶膏啶膏啶曕啶むぎ啷� (蝉补峁僺办峁泃补尘), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
