The symbol of the Nazi regime should never be called a "swastika". The word is from the Sanskrit "su" meaning "good" and "asti" meaning "being" (so "swasti" basically means well-being"). The Nazis called their symbol a "Hakenkreutz" meaning "hooked-cross" in German.
bro...woh!! i am glad that you understand that....being a jain and explaining this same thing to my friends of western world sometime get me into ugly positions
@MahaVakyas The nazis didn't blame the symbol, they just used it to represent something completely opposite to it's original meaning. Some governments banned it's use because of that, but that's stupid in my oppinion.
@@tanmayjain1584 bro u don't have to explain anything to the western people U don't owe them an explanation I m a Hindu and swastika is an important part of my religion too So let them think what they want to
Fun fact: State of Gujarat is predominantly vegetarian because of Jain folk Hemachandra despite being a Coastal and predominantly Hindu state. This is since 8th century.
Rajasthan is vegetarian but sad reality in area near Son Nath temple all eat fish non veg its hard to live near somnath I booked a hotel near be half km and in hotel their was so dense smell of fish eww
I’m Hindu but I love Jain philosophy, the largest Jain gathering happens in my state Karnataka, once in 12 years. And the good thing is others also attend it and take part in it.
@Proud Bangladeshi গর্বিত বাংলাদেশী nope it did not originate there, buddha became the buddha in india in gaya, bihar before he was just a man (siddhartha gautama) he became enlightened in india and preached his first sermon in india and the texts were also written in india so the person siddhartha gautama was born in modern day nepal but buddhism was developed in india though technically nepal was governed from india at that time so he was born in past day india too if u will but thats up for debate regardless buddhism as a religion originated in india so Buddhism is an indian religion.
@@vikrantsingh2348 i understand ur feeling my friend but iam not dividing borders and i know how similar our cultures are i think u misunderstood the context of my comment there was a previous comment about why is Buddhism called an Indian religion despite the buddha being born in Nepal, I just gave the context of despite buddha being born in modern day nepal technically buddhism developed as a religion in mainland india so it is an Indian religion even if u consider buddha a nepali. Iam not dividing nations iam just presenting the "thesis" if u will why is buddhism an indian religion pls do read the previous comments to clarify
@Proud Bangladeshi গর্বিত বাংলাদেশী yes and yes even Bangladesh has Indian roots its stupidity that Islam is used to divide same people. Buddha was born in India even if he wasn't it was Indian philosophy through which he attained moksha.
@@shabarish2727 firstly, Buddha originated from Gaya and back then Nepal wasn't a separate country. from Persia in the West to Java and Sumatra in the East, from Himalayas in the North to Sri Lanka and Laccadives in the south all constituted India and everyone in this region more or less followed the same way of life.
Dude I’m a Hindu and grew up knowing Jainism and listening to preachers but am amazed on your depth of research and knowledge. Hats off seriously you’re doing an amazing job. Keep it up bro 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@999 bhagwaan adinath is himself ikshvaku. You kindus can't bear it and then another character so you can feel good. Rama was in time of bhagwaan Munisuvratswami (after). Learning something from Instagram, calling me filthy, not knowing the spelling and when I told you about you call it excuse. Hinduism is Vedic part of Sanatan Dharma and Jainism and Buddhism are Shramanic part of Sanatan Dharma. You hindus want to show that Sanatan Dharma is hinduism. That's what Bhramins are doing from thousand years. You have hurted Jainism and Buddhism more then Islam did. We still consider you brothers and you call me 'filth'. Shows what Bhramins have taught you
@999 the darshanas you mentioned are also present in Jainism. Does that mean whatever Hinduism you are talking about keeps on claiming everything is not new. When we claim about certain temples they say that you are our branch don't mess with us. Also ikshvaku is present as 5th generation of manu mentioned in the made up stories of Hinduism.
I've had my non-Jain friends always asking that I'm killing organisms all the time, even while I'm writing this but here's the thing. Until and unless you don't kill something on purpose, it is fine but if you try saving them, that is religion to us. My grandpa designed our house in a way that we don't need to use artificial light till 7 pm, sunlight is enough. This is the kind of dedication we have for the religion and ahimsa.
How does Jainism interpret artificial light(electricity, fire?) as killing organisms and how does it interpret the sun as not? Microscopic organisms die from dry/hot surfaces and encouraging/designing sunlight everywhere can be construed as 'killing organisms', so if that's the case wouldn't artificial light save organisms too? By that same token, with our stomach microbiomes, changing diet significantly can be considered killing the bacteria, or even creating along side it? 8:54 In the video it said the monks/nuns can't cook so they go to other households, but isn't it likely they'll be going to less devout(relatively, by nature of their positions they've chosen) people who wouldn't inspect or be as strict with their preparations? Wouldn't making the food themselves save more organisms overall? (ie family makes B-grade food for 4 and monk makes A-grade food for 1 vs family making B-grade food for 5)
@@2bit8bytes well it is believed that sun is the only source of energy on this planet, so all organisms can bare it to some extent. Artificial electricity is not completely banished since regular jains use it, things get more strict when you opt to become a sadhvi or maharasaab (nun or monk) As far as cooking is concerned, many of them are on fasts for like weeks, and when they eat, it is usually fruits. Also they travel in groups, since to cook you need to burn which can cause killings, it is the duty of regular jains to provide food to such great people. Also many eat only ripened fruits with MINIMUM seeds and ensure they go back to soil so the cycle of life for the fruit keeps running. A lot more to tell but I hope it helps. We have different kinds of fast like Ekaasan, Byassan, Aimbil, Choviaahar Upvas, Neevi etc. They have abolished everything related to world and are on a trip to inner peace, you might not get food some day, but that is something that shouldn't bother you.
@match box yes my grandfather did talk about all of'em. I went to IB so I've always had a broader perspective. We celebrate Diwali, Guru Purab, Eid (my friends get veg chocolates for me from their iftaar) 🙂. We believe in multiple theories, however the path we chose is of Jinendra. We have originated in India, diversity is in our blood. Who am I to proselytize anyone's philosophy. Saint? God? Do whatever you want to. Believe in paramatma or Jesus. It will always be an individual's choice.
Impossible which means its just a confused belief...Death is death by accident or not. covering mouth won't stop you from breathing......All veg have life
As a Jain from a significantly religious and spiritual background, I have to say this was a pretty accurate introduction to Jainism. This religion is pretty misunderstood and I'm glad you cleared things up for the non-Jain folk who are curious! Ahimsa Parmo Dharma 🙏
as an ex-jain an current atheist I believe greed and lying in business is something I really felt Jain community has failed at also I was always against wasting so much money on temples rather than being moderate and utilize that money like feeding poor or making schools..
@@wittysatan3821 Lol,an ex-Jain and current atheist??You surely weren't an Jain,very clear from that statement itself. Because Jainism follows Atheism by default,and who said they don't feed the poor?Most of the Bhandaras(for poor people) where i live is done by Jains only. And the reason why money is spent on Temples by any Indian religion is because "Many of them were destroyed during Arab and Mughal rule,because they were butt hurt seeing good and peace loving people" Nalanda University was also destroyed with the aim of destroying Identity of religions to burn the religious books and popularity of India back then.
This channel is very informative, I love their information. And I’m a Hindu, I know lots of things about Hinduism and Jainism, but many people may not. Very well put together.
@@CogitoEdu Man even Indian channels don't explain such precisely, wanted to know where exactly did you get such precise content considering its not that much on the net
Everyone has a feeling of emptiness and everyone has their own way to try to fill that emptiness, for example: Drugs, both legal and illegal, alcohol, eating, dieting, exercising, jogging, TV, Internet, Tweeting, sports, shopping, gambling, porno, sex, a hobby, reading, cooking, working, the list is endless. But the most subtle of all of the ways is by making conclusions. People love to jump to conclusions, conclude(to shut up), notice how the word begins with con. My favorite Churchill quote is: " For every question there is an answer that is clear, concise, coherent and wrong". Falun Dafa. A spiritual practice that opens both one's mind and one's heart.
The tulu nadu region where my native place(note its in Karnataka in udupi and manglore districts) was mostly ruled by jain kings and we have many jain temples which we call basadi there.
Tho I barely knew anything about Jainism but have always thought of it as an extremely beautiful religion. I had a Jain friend in my class and I kid you not she was the most polite girl in the entire class. I remember in our farewell after party she refused to eat anything as she was skeptic In what utensils they cooked food. Like she didn’t want to eat the food made in a utensil which was used to make meat and basically she didn’t eat garlic and onion so. I remember thinking like “this must be hard for her” and admiring all Jains who have it tough but still stick to their faith. Y’all have my respect.
Jains love and respect everybody who loves and respect everyone else. You are a really nice person still I see some people are giving idiotic replies on you comment. I feel sorry for those idiots.
But your practice will not get you anywhere, you will keep on reincarnating. Falun Dafa can bring you out of these three realms and put you on a righteous path.
Jai Jinendra! I come from Hong Kong, China. 🇭🇰🇨🇳 At first, I knew about Jainism on the Internet, then I was really touched by the principle of Ahimsa in Jainism. Jains are strict vegetarians, they even don’t eat root vegetables! Monks and nuns step forward to carry their peacock feather whisks to brush the insects and other tiny beings away. Jains’ compassion extend to ALL living beings in the world, even universe. Where can I find these great people in the world? Unfortunately, in the cultural background of my place raised in, I almost have no chance to encounter this great religion. Most of the people here even haven’t heard of the word ‘Jainism’. I wish I could stay in India for a certain period of time to deeply learn about this great religion one day. Or even becoming a Jain nun. I respectfully bow to all followers of Jainism in the world!!!
Rushi Integrity Thank you! But there are almost no formal Jain temples in Hong Kong due to my cultural background. The only one in Hong Kong is located in a small industrial flat. And what I mean is that I wish I could become a Jain nun on one day in my life. That day may come after several decades, certainly not in the near future, because I am still a teenager. But I will work hard to learn more about Jainism from now on.
Hi @makathena5709 If u ever wish to come to India for a few days, weeks, months to experience the nun life or to visit certain temples/iconic pilgrim sites, let me know. I have ideas.
ive noticed its always the these kinds of liberating, peaceful religions such as hinduism, buddism, jainism, sikhism etc that throughout history have had so much injustices happen to them. Interesting to think about.
Religion has nothing to do with that, it's just politics. The West was stronger and wealthier, simple as that. Because if religion had anything to do then the Christian (aka turn the other cheek) countries would have been doomed
@Adhishree Singh There are many types of wealth. Africa for example has a great amount of natural resources but they got it nowhere. West had money, intelligence and greed to conquer the whole planet. It had nothing to do with religion as the original comment suggested
@@marendranodi2693 I don't have to. If you read the original comment you will understand what I said. Christianity's morals as a faith had nothing to do with Europeans conquering India. That was just greed

I disagree. Non violence doesn’t equal peace. Most religions religions preach it. The reality of the world is that there are time’s that you have to fight.
@@alayhaferron1972 well they don't kill people and force people to convert. They don't even kill innocent animals. If this is not peace than nothing is.
I am shocked I had no idea of the existence of this prevalent and ancient religion. I'm not a fan of asceticism or vows of celibacy, but I madly respect the tenets of non violence and preservation of life. Jain's seem like they would be nice people I would feel very safe around.
yes they do exist, they are a lot. They are not very famous 'around the world' because they don't brag abt themselves (like other peaceful religion). great religion and culture indeed.
@Hes ham when someone questions the authenticity of ur religion you ask them if they studied ur religion! And yet you spread hate on other religions without even knowing them. Hypocrisy is like the main pillar of ur sadistic CULT !

I am a Jain. And This video is the most accurate video on Jainism. I can't imagine the amount of research that must have been done by the creator of this video to understand and very effectively condense the actual essences of a tens of thousand year old religion with so many concepts , without getting lost in only some attention catching aspects, which happens in almost all videos on Jainism. And also distinguishing Regular Jains from Jain monks was very important point to understand.

Leaving the life cycle with their own will ... some strict followers whom said to be self aware of their end time ... they goes into deep meditation and stop taking food and water untill death which can take few weeks to month.
@@ryonarushima6404 Suicide is on many cases done to escape or regret something... In starvation to death cases...it is only allowed when u have completed all ur duties of life.

Suicide on the other hand is a very big sin bcoz that will give pain to our family members.
This was super interesting. I've been practicing Buddhism for years but never knew much about Jainism. Its mind-blowing how similar they are. Keep up your great work!
Buddhism isn't that interigated in the doctrine of non-consumption of meat, I am a Buddhist (sc) from India and in India saw our monks consuming chicken, then in my visit to Bodh Gaya I saw a community of Tibetan Buddhist and vietnamese Buddhist consuming meat.

Jainism is the only religion about which I have never heard of anyone fighting other people. If anyone has any evidence of Jain attacks, let me know, but I'm kind of blown away at how aggressively peaceful Jainism is.
@Pecu Alex well I'm jain I guess I can answer.. We were about 10 million when India got independence now we're even less We jains don't have the urge of protecting or forcing someone to believe in our ideologies. So our population size isn't our topmost priorities. It's about self cleansing. For Moksha. Jai Jinendra!
@Juned Shaikh Oh you forgot to mention that the same peaceful Moslems forced more than 200,000 Kashmiri pundits out of Kashmir in 1990s. They were also protesting very peacefully by chanting mantras like " leave , convert or die ", etc, etc.
You will never find Jain's fighting because all the fighting and Defending work has been done by Hindu's, Sikh's throughout History. Jainism can't survive without stable and protected environment.
@Juned Shaikh Brother, if you compare atrocities by Islam all dharmic religion did not even 0.00001% of other religion. So please stop barking from your bloody saliva dipping mouth. It does not suits you pretending to be peaceful. You really amuse us you know that? 😂🤦
Growing up in Europe religion for me was always harmful stories where women are degraded, violence is promoted, LGBT are discriminated against and nature is just there to be used by humans. I'm so impressed by Jainism now. What a great, loving and peaceful way to live!
Yeah it's not religion it's just the people in South Asia wether that be pakistan india Bangladesh Nepal Bhutan etc wrent really that super stitious to this stuff
You can see thought that degrading women was also common inJainism, remember the Digambaras and Svetambaras conflicting ideas? The Digambaras were the original and more older type of the two. That means that until the Svetambaras were aa thing, women were completely excluded from finding Moksha. IT would be like as if one of the three monotheistic western religions explicitly says that woman cant go to heaven.

I guess you got plenty of karmas attached to you by generalising the entire Middle East ;) I don't really believe in this rebirth thing but I'm hoping for your next life to be as an Arab that is generalised as a terrorist. Is going through external wars, civil wars, because his land of origin has natural resources. Not taken seriously and treated as second/third class citizen when he becomes a refugee. Only then you'd understand the hell that some Arabs are going through because they're stuck between evil, hyper materialistic nations such as Russia, US, China and evil, fanatic organizations such as ISIS, Al-Qaea, and some Shiite Militias. I don't expect you to understand though, your attention span is already proven very short by tolerating such a shortsighted comment.
Brilliant just brilliant,I wish I could give it 1000 likes, the creator is a genius and very talented person. I thank you from the bottom of my heart to present very informative and well documented video, many jains are themselves not aware about everything in jainism and you have presented them in the best way possible. The most underrated channel. Thank you sir
Fun fact, Dayaben's mom name is "JeevDaya Ben". This is very smart of writers to name her that since Jeev Daya means Compassion for all organisms, and a very popular term in Jain Community.
As a hindu i can confirm jains are the most peaceful, only jains follow ahimsa(non violence) truly, we hindus, buddhists, sikhs have forgotten our roots
@@jeremy_fragrance_desi I am not kidding, I am a jain living in Kerala and many people from our own community eat beef. I will never even think about it. Well I am no one to stop them or report, it's their life and I don't need to impose my thoughts but I mean it feels a bit sad that they are shifting away.
Christianity is just as harmful if not more then Islam and there are secular peaceful practitioners of Islam just like any other religion it's the institution that's fucked up not the indoctrinated working class people there are plenty of peaceful selfless people who follow Islam you are just being xenophobic and islamophobic
Being a Jain, I must say the way the information is presented is really nice and I would recommend every Jain person to know more about our culture and history! Thanks a lot for this video and I respect you for the hard work!!
But your practice will not get you anywhere, you will keep on reincarnating. Falun Dafa can bring you out of these three realms and put you on a righteous path.
As a Buddhist, I'm just watching this and nodding my head along in agreement with every Jain teaching. Yeah, this is exactly what I was taught growing up in a Buddhist family. Remind me why we are two different religions again please?
Yea i have to agree with you. As i watched this and listen to the guy speak, i just can’t stop thinking that it so similar to Buddhist teachings. I don’t even think it’s any different from one another. Big difference is Buddha himself as a “symbolic relic” per say.
Hinduism Baudhism and Jainism all three Religions started from India . Yes they are different but they are connected with God. Jain not worship God. Budh worship Budha who is Avtar of lord Vishnu. And Hindu worship Vishnu
@@kingsman7761 Well, for us, Buddha is not a God either. He is a very wise enlightened person who realised the true nature of life and the universe, and decided to pass on the lessons he learnt himself through pure logical thinking and analysis
Kalana Herath You said it well and clear brother. By the way, I’ve watched another vdo about Jain and the story of a son of Siddhartha was said to be the enlightened one. Then the story about him was exactly the same as Siddhartha’s path to enlightenment. Is this religion more of an offshoot of Buddhism itself? If anything it’s the same to me.
All of the Indian Religions have Same (Similar) ground rules , thats why Sanatana Dharma (loosely Hinduism) was said to be a 'Way Of Life' more than a 'religion'.
Quite Detailed and researched in depth, Good job Cogito, You found yourself a subscriber. P. S. I am a Jain, Next time someone asks me what's Jain, This is what I show
Very nice video. As a Proud jain I would like to add some more points here : 1. We are a peaceful religion and always try to keep calm . We try to avoid fight as much as possible . However we won't tolerate any injustice. 2.For those who are wondering our rules are very strict , pls try to understand that practically we common jains don't follow many rules. But the jain sadhus sant follow each and every rule. For example I eat my dinner at 8pm. 3. There are some bad people in our sect also .They are everywhere . Sadly Some jains also eat non veg food . 4. For those thinking that pure vegetarian food have very less taste and variety , I feel pitty for u all as you know nothing.Its just heavenly food . 5. We always try to help each other and everyone else. If we become obsessed with our religion we become more nice person lol 6.Although our Population is only near 60 lakhs in India but our contribution is immense. 7. Most of the big businessmen like Oswal Mehtas Etc are jains. 8. JETHALAL 😂is also a jain .😂😂 In (TMKOC )a popular Indian show.😌 9. We respect all religions especially Hinduism a lot , we love hindu mythology And also worship hindu gods. But we are not same religions. We share some common things . 10. Jainism is a way of life. We are proud of our religion , And Country India.🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳😊😊🙏🏻🙏🏻 Jai jinendra to everyone. If any doubts pls ask me. You can upvote if u like so that it can reach maximum people. 😊🙏🏻🇮🇳🇮🇳 jai hind
Great timing on this one, Since it released during the "Paryushan Parv" I missed the mention of Michchami Dukkadam. Otherwise, good research and extremely well made. Kudos.
I come from a very traditional and highly devoted jain family, I too am very religious and I’m genuinely happy too the accuracy of this video. This is awesome
True religion of Peace... Some muslims claim Islam to be a religion of peace😂😂😂 Jainism is more profound, philosophically deep, great basic tenets... basically everything that a true religion needs.
@@mylovingrabiI have read Quran but don't mind bro/sis, it looked like a rant diary of Mr. Mohammad's personal biases towards those whose belief system & ideology didn't aligned with him.
Things you missed about a Jain monk: •Jain monks don't cut their hairs or beard as its an outer service rather they unroot it by hands. • Jain monks eat and drink once a day. • Jain monks take a vidhi( a correct pattern of something which they already decide in their mind before going in search of food) and if this vidhi is not seen by them through their feeders they don't eat that day. (eventually this vidhi is very simple and common so that they can eat but not always). • Jain monks only have two possessions with them kamandal( in which they keep water for excretion) and pichi made of peacock feathers but only fallen off one(helps to remove microorganisms before sitting anywhere). • When they realise their end time is near they set themselves on complete fasting .
Fantastic compilation of knowledge with those graphics and humor. but we really respect monks and nuns, 'Naked dude' was like, ouch! let's call them monks, one who has renunciated all worldly possessions. Btw Nordvpn is also a piece of info and seems interesting service.
@@someguy2135 Ya dairy is allowed in Jainism because in India specially before centralised dairy cows were treated like mother. Which still is the case in local dairies. But in USA they eay cow after taking milk so it's not non violent anymore and also they do not treat cows well... So it's better to be a vegan than a vegetarian in a country like USA

I didn't know how true is Jain's believe! But I'm pretty certain if every human on this planet practice the Ideology of Ahimsa (Vegetarianism or Vegan concept of Nonviolence)... there won't be any Bloodshed, Holocaust, Battlefields or Slaughterhouse on this planet! In this context even Einstein had agreed to the point. I feel amazed with India for being a "very sacred land" and the root for Nonviolence Ideology and a place of birth of many Peace-Loving monks like Mahatma Gandhi, Gautama Buddha, many thousand Prophets and Sages as like Vivekananda, Vallalar, Tiruvalluvan, Ramanujan and Kannagi. -Commentator from Singapore-
As a hindu I respect Jainism. I have visited jain temples and bahubali statues hundreds of times. Even jains also coexist well with hindus. Dharmastala hindu temple is administered by jains.

Namaste Gee, The advent of Prophet Muhammad is mentioned more than once in the Hindu scriptures. Hindu scriptures are divided into three basic categories: Vedas, Upanishads and Puranas. There are differences about the age of those scriptures; some people believe that they go back almost 4,000 years. One of the amazing prophecies in these Hindu scriptures is the one on the tongue of Maharshi Vyasa, a Hindu saint, that states that the land of Arabs will be corrupted by the evil doers - maybe a reference to the pre-Islamic pagans; and that Mahamad - a slight adulteration of the name Muhammad - will come and guide those who went astray. He will be circumcised, bearded, eloquent; he will create a great revolution; he will announce the call for prayers; he will eat of the meat of lawful animals but not of the swine; and he will fight against irreligious nations. All these descriptions meet Prophet Muhammad (Vidyarthi). Bhavishya Purana, one of the most important Puranas, includes another prophecy that states that in a foreign country a spiritual teacher whose name is Muhammad will come; he will be a dweller of Arabia; he will gather a large force to fight or kill the devil; and God will protect him from his opponents. Prophet Muhammad Mentioned in the Upanishad Some Hindu scholars consider the Upanishads scripture to be superior to the Vedas, because they impart divine knowledge and teach how the human soul can get nearer to its Maker and Master. The Muslim testimony of faith is mentioned in the Upanishads. The most important prophecy in it is the one that mentions the coming of Prophet Muhammad by name, and the Muslim testimony of faith - there is no God but Allah - is repeated more than once in it. As a result of the clarity and explicitness of that prophecy, some Hindus actually enter into Islam, which has led some Hindu scholars to claim that perhaps this prophecy was written by a Hindu pundit who converted to Islam. But this is refuted because this prophecy was referred to in some of the ancient Hindu books that predate the advent of Islam or Muslims to India (Vidyarthi). In the Allo Upanishad, the following description of God is given: the name of the deity is Allah, He is one, the King of all the world, He is the Magnificent, the Greatest of all, the Best, the Most Perfect , the Holiest of all, the Nourisher of the whole world, the Manifester of the earth and the space, and the Lord of all creation. He created the sun, the moon, the stars, and the heavens. He is the Nourisher of all the birds, beasts, animals that live in the sea and those that are not visible to the eye. He is the remover of all evils and calamities, and Muhammad is the apostle of Allah. Prophet Muhammad Mentioned in the Vedas The third basic category of Hindu scriptures is called the Veda. In the Atharva Veda, it is mentioned that the praiseworthy among people shall be praised; it is known that the name Muhammad in Arabic actually means “the praiseworthy.” It also states that the promised prophet will be a camel rider, which is interesting because Indian prophets were forbidden to ride camels. Prophet Jesus, according to the New Testament, rode on an ass but not on a camel, but it is well known that Prophet Muhammad rode a camel. The seventh mantra also speaks about someone who is going to be a guide to all people, and Prophet Muhammad always emphasized that he was not sent to a particular people, like Israelites alone or Arabs alone, but to the whole world. The sixth mantra speaks about some of the brave people who vanquished without a battle and that the number of their opponents was 10,000, which could be a reference to the battle of the allies or the trench that took place during Prophet Muhammad’s time. The number of the people who put a siege around Madinah were indeed 10,000, and they were vanquished without a battle because God sent a hurricane that finally, after a long siege, forced them to leave. In the Rig Veda, it speaks about a person who is described as truthful and trustworthy, powerful and generous who will be famous with 10,000. All these are the characteristics of Prophet Muhammad, and the number 10,000 could be a possible reference to the number of the Companions of Prophet Muhammad who entered Makkah victoriously.
"The external mystery of the world is its intelligibility. True religion fastens to this element of intelligibility and creates a system of thought and action which leads to true harmony and bliss. And it is indeed so with Jainism." - *Albert* *Einstein*

The symbol of the Nazi regime should never be called a "swastika". The word is from the Sanskrit "su" meaning "good" and "asti" meaning "being" (so "swasti" basically means well-being").

@Proud Bangladeshi গর্বিত বাংলাদেশী nope it did not originate there, buddha became the buddha in india in gaya, bihar before he was just a man (siddhartha gautama) he became enlightened in india and preached his first sermon in india and the texts were also written in india so the person siddhartha gautama was born in modern day nepal but buddhism was developed in india though technically nepal was governed from india at that time so he was born in past day india too if u will but thats up for debate regardless buddhism as a religion originated in india so Buddhism is an indian religion.
@@vikrantsingh2348 i understand ur feeling my friend but iam not dividing borders and i know how similar our cultures are i think u misunderstood the context of my comment there was a previous comment about why is Buddhism called an Indian religion despite the buddha being born in Nepal, I just gave the context of despite buddha being born in modern day nepal technically buddhism developed as a religion in mainland india so it is an Indian religion even if u consider buddha a nepali. Iam not dividing nations iam just presenting the "thesis" if u will why is buddhism an indian religion pls do read the previous comments to clarify
@Proud Bangladeshi গর্বিত বাংলাদেশী yes and yes even Bangladesh has Indian roots its stupidity that Islam is used to divide same people. Buddha was born in India even if he wasn't it was Indian philosophy through which he attained moksha.
@@shabarish2727 firstly, Buddha originated from Gaya and back then Nepal wasn't a separate country. from Persia in the West to Java and Sumatra in the East, from Himalayas in the North to Sri Lanka and Laccadives in the south all constituted India and everyone in this region more or less followed the same way of life.
Dude I’m a Hindu and grew up knowing Jainism and listening to preachers but am amazed on your depth of research and knowledge. Hats off seriously you’re doing an amazing job. Keep it up bro 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@999 no
@999 so what knowledge you have about Teerthankaras?
@999 you don't even know spelling of Teerthankaras and say that I don't have perfect knowledge, huh?
@999 bhagwaan adinath is himself ikshvaku. You kindus can't bear it and then another character so you can feel good. Rama was in time of bhagwaan Munisuvratswami (after). Learning something from Instagram, calling me filthy, not knowing the spelling and when I told you about you call it excuse. Hinduism is Vedic part of Sanatan Dharma and Jainism and Buddhism are Shramanic part of Sanatan Dharma. You hindus want to show that Sanatan Dharma is hinduism. That's what Bhramins are doing from thousand years. You have hurted Jainism and Buddhism more then Islam did. We still consider you brothers and you call me 'filth'. Shows what Bhramins have taught you
@999 the darshanas you mentioned are also present in Jainism. Does that mean whatever Hinduism you are talking about keeps on claiming everything is not new. When we claim about certain temples they say that you are our branch don't mess with us. Also ikshvaku is present as 5th generation of manu mentioned in the made up stories of Hinduism.
I've had my non-Jain friends always asking that I'm killing organisms all the time, even while I'm writing this but here's the thing. Until and unless you don't kill something on purpose, it is fine but if you try saving them, that is religion to us. My grandpa designed our house in a way that we don't need to use artificial light till 7 pm, sunlight is enough. This is the kind of dedication we have for the religion and ahimsa.
How does Jainism interpret artificial light(electricity, fire?) as killing organisms and how does it interpret the sun as not? Microscopic organisms die from dry/hot surfaces and encouraging/designing sunlight everywhere can be construed as 'killing organisms', so if that's the case wouldn't artificial light save organisms too?
By that same token, with our stomach microbiomes, changing diet significantly can be considered killing the bacteria, or even creating along side it?
8:54
In the video it said the monks/nuns can't cook so they go to other households, but isn't it likely they'll be going to less devout(relatively, by nature of their positions they've chosen) people who wouldn't inspect or be as strict with their preparations? Wouldn't making the food themselves save more organisms overall? (ie family makes B-grade food for 4 and monk makes A-grade food for 1 vs family making B-grade food for 5)
@@2bit8bytes well it is believed that sun is the only source of energy on this planet, so all organisms can bare it to some extent. Artificial electricity is not completely banished since regular jains use it, things get more strict when you opt to become a sadhvi or maharasaab (nun or monk)
As far as cooking is concerned, many of them are on fasts for like weeks, and when they eat, it is usually fruits. Also they travel in groups, since to cook you need to burn which can cause killings, it is the duty of regular jains to provide food to such great people.
Also many eat only ripened fruits with MINIMUM seeds and ensure they go back to soil so the cycle of life for the fruit keeps running. A lot more to tell but I hope it helps.
We have different kinds of fast like Ekaasan, Byassan, Aimbil, Choviaahar Upvas, Neevi etc.
They have abolished everything related to world and are on a trip to inner peace, you might not get food some day, but that is something that shouldn't bother you.
@match box yes my grandfather did talk about all of'em. I went to IB so I've always had a broader perspective. We celebrate Diwali, Guru Purab, Eid (my friends get veg chocolates for me from their iftaar) 🙂. We believe in multiple theories, however the path we chose is of Jinendra. We have originated in India, diversity is in our blood.
Who am I to proselytize anyone's philosophy. Saint? God?
Do whatever you want to. Believe in paramatma or Jesus. It will always be an individual's choice.
@erick meyer no
Impossible which means its just a confused belief...Death is death by accident or not. covering mouth won't stop you from breathing......All veg have life

Because Jainism follows Atheism by default,and who said they don't feed the poor?Most of the Bhandaras(for poor people) where i live is done by Jains only.
And the reason why money is spent on Temples by any Indian religion is because "Many of them were destroyed during Arab and Mughal rule,because they were butt hurt seeing good and peace loving people"

Falun Dafa is quite similar to that of Jainism but with many more mysteries revealed.
Everyone has a feeling of emptiness and everyone has their own way to try to fill that emptiness, for example: Drugs, both legal and illegal, alcohol, eating, dieting, exercising, jogging, TV, Internet, Tweeting, sports, shopping, gambling, porno, sex, a hobby, reading, cooking, working, the list is endless. But the most subtle of all of the ways is by making conclusions. People love to jump to conclusions, conclude(to shut up), notice how the word begins with con. My favorite Churchill quote is: " For every question there is an answer that is clear, concise, coherent and wrong". Falun Dafa. A spiritual practice that opens both one's mind and one's heart.

Jai Jinendra! I come from Hong Kong, China. 🇭🇰🇨🇳
At first, I knew about Jainism on the Internet, then I was really touched by the principle of Ahimsa in Jainism. Jains are strict vegetarians, they even don’t eat root vegetables! Monks and nuns step forward to carry their peacock feather whisks to brush the insects and other tiny beings away. Jains’ compassion extend to ALL living beings in the world, even universe. Where can I find these great people in the world?
Unfortunately, in the cultural background of my place raised in, I almost have no chance to encounter this great religion. Most of the people here even haven’t heard of the word ‘Jainism’. I wish I could stay in India for a certain period of time to deeply learn about this great religion one day. Or even becoming a Jain nun.
I respectfully bow to all followers of Jainism in the world!!!
Rushi Integrity Thank you! But there are almost no formal Jain temples in Hong Kong due to my cultural background. The only one in Hong Kong is located in a small industrial flat.
And what I mean is that I wish I could become a Jain nun on one day in my life. That day may come after several decades, certainly not in the near future, because I am still a teenager. But I will work hard to learn more about Jainism from now on.
Rushi Integrity Actually I have bought two books about Jainism on Amazon. One is the Tattvartha Sutra, and another one is Jain Philosophy.

ive noticed its always the these kinds of liberating, peaceful religions such as hinduism, buddism, jainism, sikhism etc that throughout history have had so much injustices happen to them. Interesting to think about.
Religion has nothing to do with that, it's just politics. The West was stronger and wealthier, simple as that. Because if religion had anything to do then the Christian (aka turn the other cheek) countries would have been doomed
Good observation. Jainism has been affected the most
@Adhishree Singh There are many types of wealth. Africa for example has a great amount of natural resources but they got it nowhere. West had money, intelligence and greed to conquer the whole planet. It had nothing to do with religion as the original comment suggested

We were about 10 million when India got independence now we're even less
We jains don't have the urge of protecting or forcing someone to believe in our ideologies. So our population size isn't our topmost priorities. It's about self cleansing. For Moksha. Jai Jinendra!

Yeah it's not religion it's just the people in South Asia wether that be pakistan india Bangladesh Nepal Bhutan etc wrent really that super stitious to this stuff
You can see thought that degrading women was also common inJainism, remember the Digambaras and Svetambaras conflicting ideas? The Digambaras were the original and more older type of the two.
That means that until the Svetambaras were aa thing, women were completely excluded from finding Moksha. IT would be like as if one of the three monotheistic western religions explicitly says that woman cant go to heaven.

Only then you'd understand the hell that some Arabs are going through because they're stuck between evil, hyper materialistic nations such as Russia, US, China and evil, fanatic organizations such as ISIS, Al-Qaea, and some Shiite Militias. I don't expect you to understand though, your attention span is already proven very short by tolerating such a shortsighted comment.

Being a Jain, I must say the way the information is presented is really nice and I would recommend every Jain person to know more about our culture and history! Thanks a lot for this video and I respect you for the hard work!!
As a Jain I find it accurate,well made , straight to the point, amazing video , thank you for your efforts you put in and for sharing :)

Thank you for not being a "STEREOTYPED WESTERN GUY "
As a Buddhist, I'm just watching this and nodding my head along in agreement with every Jain teaching. Yeah, this is exactly what I was taught growing up in a Buddhist family. Remind me why we are two different religions again please?
Yea i have to agree with you. As i watched this and listen to the guy speak, i just can’t stop thinking that it so similar to Buddhist teachings. I don’t even think it’s any different from one another. Big difference is Buddha himself as a “symbolic relic” per say.
Hinduism Baudhism and Jainism all three Religions started from India . Yes they are different but they are connected with God.
Jain not worship God. Budh worship Budha who is Avtar of lord Vishnu.
And Hindu worship Vishnu
@@Handle_Edit Exactly. I felt the same way listening to these as I felt listening to sermons in my local Buddhist temple growing up
@@kingsman7761 Well, for us, Buddha is not a God either. He is a very wise enlightened person who realised the true nature of life and the universe, and decided to pass on the lessons he learnt himself through pure logical thinking and analysis
Kalana Herath You said it well and clear brother. By the way, I’ve watched another vdo about Jain and the story of a son of Siddhartha was said to be the enlightened one. Then the story about him was exactly the same as Siddhartha’s path to enlightenment. Is this religion more of an offshoot of Buddhism itself? If anything it’s the same to me.
The west is just starting to discover veganism and environmentalism and call it modern movements.
yeah 😊
Lol whereas Indians and some people in the east have been practicing it for hundreds of years
Literally nobody calls it a modern moment. Get over your xenophobia.
And if you care to prove me wrong, post ONE video of someone referring to veganism as a “new movement”. Just one. I won’t hold my breath. 😊
5:15 All life is bound together by mutual support and interdependence.😊
All of the Indian Religions have Same (Similar) ground rules , thats why Sanatana Dharma (loosely Hinduism) was said to be a 'Way Of Life' more than a 'religion'.
What is difference between religion and way of life? What make a religion a religion?

P. S. I am a Jain, Next time someone asks me what's Jain, This is what I show
@Ęxtřəmé Hűñteŕ He is a Jain not a hindu..
Very nice video.
As a Proud jain I would like to add some more points here :
1. We are a peaceful religion and always try to keep calm . We try to avoid fight as much as possible . However we won't tolerate any injustice.
2.For those who are wondering our rules are very strict , pls try to understand that practically we common jains don't follow many rules. But the jain sadhus sant follow each and every rule. For example I eat my dinner at 8pm.
3. There are some bad people in our sect also .They are everywhere . Sadly Some jains also eat non veg food .
4. For those thinking that pure vegetarian food have very less taste and variety , I feel pitty for u all as you know nothing.Its just heavenly food .
5. We always try to help each other and everyone else. If we become obsessed with our religion we become more nice person lol
6.Although our Population is only near 60 lakhs in India but our contribution is immense.
7. Most of the big businessmen like Oswal Mehtas Etc are jains.
8. JETHALAL 😂is also a jain .😂😂
In (TMKOC )a popular Indian show.😌
9. We respect all religions especially Hinduism a lot , we love hindu mythology And also worship hindu gods.
But we are not same religions.
We share some common things .
10. Jainism is a way of life. We are proud of our religion , And Country India.🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳😊😊🙏🏻🙏🏻
Jai jinendra to everyone.

World's most Peaceful and Non-Violent religion ever witnessed in the history.
Things you missed about a Jain monk:
•Jain monks don't cut their hairs or beard as its an outer service rather they unroot it by hands.
• Jain monks eat and drink once a day.
• Jain monks take a vidhi( a correct pattern of something which they already decide in their mind before going in search of food) and if this vidhi is not seen by them through their feeders they don't eat that day. (eventually this vidhi is very simple and common so that they can eat but not always).
• Jain monks only have two possessions with them kamandal( in which they keep water for excretion) and pichi made of peacock feathers but only fallen off one(helps to remove microorganisms before sitting anywhere).
• When they realise their end time is near they set themselves on complete fasting .
Fantastic compilation of knowledge with those graphics and humor.
but we really respect monks and nuns, 'Naked dude' was like, ouch! let's call them monks, one who has renunciated all worldly possessions.

@@someguy2135 cows are like family.
@@someguy2135 Ya dairy is allowed in Jainism because in India specially before centralised dairy cows were treated like mother. Which still is the case in local dairies. But in USA they eay cow after taking milk so it's not non violent anymore and also they do not treat cows well... So it's better to be a vegan than a vegetarian in a country like USA

I didn't know how true is Jain's believe! But I'm pretty certain if every human on this planet practice the Ideology of Ahimsa (Vegetarianism or Vegan concept of Nonviolence)... there won't be any Bloodshed, Holocaust, Battlefields or Slaughterhouse on this planet! In this context even Einstein had agreed to the point. I feel amazed with India for being a "very sacred land" and the root for Nonviolence Ideology and a place of birth of many Peace-Loving monks like Mahatma Gandhi, Gautama Buddha, many thousand Prophets and Sages as like Vivekananda, Vallalar, Tiruvalluvan, Ramanujan and Kannagi.

Namaste Gee,
The advent of Prophet Muhammad is mentioned more than once in the Hindu scriptures.
Hindu scriptures are divided into three basic categories: Vedas, Upanishads and Puranas.
There are differences about the age of those scriptures; some people believe that they go back almost 4,000 years.
One of the amazing prophecies in these Hindu scriptures is the one on the tongue of Maharshi Vyasa, a Hindu saint, that states that the land of Arabs will be corrupted by the evil doers - maybe a reference to the pre-Islamic pagans; and that Mahamad - a slight adulteration of the name Muhammad - will come and guide those who went astray.
He will be circumcised, bearded, eloquent; he will create a great revolution; he will announce the call for prayers; he will eat of the meat of lawful animals but not of the swine; and he will fight against irreligious nations. All these descriptions meet Prophet Muhammad (Vidyarthi).
Bhavishya Purana, one of the most important Puranas, includes another prophecy that states that in a foreign country a spiritual teacher whose name is Muhammad will come; he will be a dweller of Arabia; he will gather a large force to fight or kill the devil; and God will protect him from his opponents.
Prophet Muhammad Mentioned in the Upanishad Some Hindu scholars consider the Upanishads scripture to be superior to the Vedas, because they impart divine knowledge and teach how the human soul can get nearer to its Maker and Master.
The Muslim testimony of faith is mentioned in the Upanishads. The most important prophecy in it is the one that mentions the coming of Prophet Muhammad by name, and the Muslim testimony of faith - there is no God but Allah - is repeated more than once in it.
As a result of the clarity and explicitness of that prophecy, some Hindus actually enter into Islam, which has led some Hindu scholars to claim that perhaps this prophecy was written by a Hindu pundit who converted to Islam.
But this is refuted because this prophecy was referred to in some of the ancient Hindu books that predate the advent of Islam or Muslims to India (Vidyarthi).
In the Allo Upanishad, the following description of God is given: the name of the deity is Allah, He is one, the King of all the world, He is the Magnificent, the Greatest of all, the Best, the Most Perfect , the Holiest of all, the Nourisher of the whole world, the Manifester of the earth and the space, and the Lord of all creation.
He created the sun, the moon, the stars, and the heavens. He is the Nourisher of all the birds, beasts, animals that live in the sea and those that are not visible to the eye.
He is the remover of all evils and calamities, and Muhammad is the apostle of Allah. Prophet Muhammad Mentioned in the Vedas The third basic category of Hindu scriptures is called the Veda.
In the Atharva Veda, it is mentioned that the praiseworthy among people shall be praised; it is known that the name Muhammad in Arabic actually means “the praiseworthy.” It also states that the promised prophet will be a camel rider, which is interesting because Indian prophets were forbidden to ride camels. Prophet Jesus, according to the New Testament, rode on an ass but not on a camel, but it is well known that Prophet Muhammad rode a camel.
The seventh mantra also speaks about someone who is going to be a guide to all people, and Prophet Muhammad always emphasized that he was not sent to a particular people, like Israelites alone or Arabs alone, but to the whole world.
The sixth mantra speaks about some of the brave people who vanquished without a battle and that the number of their opponents was 10,000, which could be a reference to the battle of the allies or the trench that took place during Prophet Muhammad’s time.
The number of the people who put a siege around Madinah were indeed 10,000, and they were vanquished without a battle because God sent a hurricane that finally, after a long siege, forced them to leave.
In the Rig Veda, it speaks about a person who is described as truthful and trustworthy, powerful and generous who will be famous with 10,000.
All these are the characteristics of Prophet Muhammad, and the number 10,000 could be a possible reference to the number of the Companions of Prophet Muhammad who entered Makkah victoriously.
Depth of your research never fails to impress me. And your sense of humor along with narration is awesome!
"The external mystery of the world is its intelligibility. True religion fastens to this element of intelligibility and creates a system of thought and action which leads to true harmony and bliss. And it is indeed so with Jainism."
- *Albert* *Einstein*
How does religion fasten to intelligibility?
