In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: archive.org: TrisastisalakapurusacaritraվṣṇܰᲹ (विष्णुरा�) is the name of an ancient king from Siṃhapura and father of Śreyāṃsa, according to chapter 4.1 [śreyāṃsanātha-caritra] of Hemacandra’s 11th century Triṣaṣṭiśalākāpuruṣacaritra: an ancient Sanskrit epic poem narrating the history and legends of sixty-three illustrious persons in Jainism.
Accordingly:—“վṣṇܰ�, rich in glory, powerful from strength of arm, mighty as Viṣṇu, was king there (i.e., in Siṃhapura). In him the virtue called ‘subduing-the-senses� bore a brilliant heap of virtues, like a seed in the ground bearing a heap of grain. The Śrīs (Glories) and the Bhīs (Fears), respectively delighted with him submissive and angry with him hostile, were reduced to the state of ⲹṃv-wreaths at the sight of him. [...] Viṣṇu was the wife of the king, like Śacī of Jiṣṇu (Indra), radiant with beauty, like another earth in stability. [...]�.

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.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम� (ṃsṛt), 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.
