Question:

Summarise the central teachings of Jainism.

Answer:

The main teachings of Jainism are as follows:

(i) The entire world is animated. Life exists even in rocks and stones normally considered non-living.
(ii) The principle of non-violence is practised in extreme form in Jainism. No harms should be caused to animals, plants and insects and any other living beings that may include rocks and stones too. This is notable that Jains are forbidden to eat late night lest they kill insects by mistake.
(iii) The cycle of birth and rebirth is shaped through Karma. If one is to escape this cycle of Karma, one must practise asceticism and penance. It is possible when one renounces the world. So one has to live in a monastery to attain salvation.
(iv) Jain monks have to take vows to observe the following:

   (a) Not to kill anyone
   (b) Not to steal anything
   (c) Not tell lies
   (d) Not to possess property
   (e) To observe celibacy.
