General definition (in Jainism)
: archive.org: Sum Jaina Canonical Sutras (vividhatirthakalpa)śٳīٳ (पार्श्वनाथतीर्�).—In ancient times there was the image of Śrī Pārśva-nātha in Campā in the suburbs of Ratnākara. Sohamma Vāsava worshipped it. Later, in the forest of Daṇḍaka, two asuras (demons), realizing the influence of Rāghava, offered it to Rāmabhadra. The daughter of Videha with Raghupuṅgava worshipped it. It was also worshipped by Śakra.

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.
