Produktinformationen zu „Routledge Advances in Jaina Studies: Early Asceticism in India (ePub)“
Ajivikism was once ranked one of the most important religions in India between the 4th and 2nd centuries BCE, after Buddhism, 'Brahmanism' and before Jainism, but is now a forgotten Indian religion. However, Jainism has remained an integral part of the religious landscape of South Asia, despite the common beginnings shared with Ajivikism.By rediscovering, reconstructing, and examining the A jA vikism doctrine, its art, origins and development, this book provides new insight into A jA vikism, and discusses how this information enables us to better understand its impact on Jainism and its role in the development of Indian religion and philosophy. This book explains how, why and when Jainism developed its strikingly unique logic and epistemology and what historical and doctrinal factors prompted the ideas which later led to the formulation of the doctrine of multiplexity of reality (anekA nta-vA da). It also provides answers to difficult passages of Buddhist SA maa-phala-sutta that baffled both Buddhist commentators and modern researchers.Offering clearer perspectives on the origins of Jainism the book will be an invaluable contribution to Jaina Studies, Asian Religion and Religious History.
