In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
: archive.org: Puranic Encyclopedia峁歬峁谤补箩补蝉 (啶嬥啷嵿し啶班啶膏).鈥擜 monkey who was the foster-father of B膩li and Sugr墨va. He was the king of Ki峁indh膩. He had no issue for a long time. B膩li and Sugr墨va were brought up by Ahaly膩 at Gautama鈥檚 膩艣rama. 峁歬sarajas, with the permission of Indra, went to the 膩艣rama and took B膩li and Sugr墨va with him to Ki峁indh膩. From that time, B膩li and Sugr墨va remained with him as his foster-sons. (Uttara R膩m膩ya峁嘺).
There is a story in V膩lm墨ki R膩m膩ya峁嘺, Prak峁pta Sarga, about the origin of this monkey.
Once when Brahm膩 was in a state of meditation on the Meru mountain, tears rolled down from his eyes and he gathered the tears in his own hands. From those tears, a monkey came into being. 峁歬峁谤补箩补蝉 was that monkey.
One day, 峁歬峁谤补箩补蝉 went to a lake to quench his thirst. Seeing his own image reflected in the water, he thought it was some enemy and jumped into the lake, to attack him. But he soon realized his mistake and returned to the shore. As soon as he came out of the water, he felt that he had become a woman. Seeing her fascinating beauty, Indra and S奴rya were filled with lustful passion. Both of them had involuntary emission of semen. B膩li was born from Indra鈥檚 semen which fell on the head and Sugr墨va was born from S奴rya鈥檚 semen which fell on the neck of 峁歬峁谤补箩补蝉. Towards the end of the night, 峁歬峁谤补箩补蝉 lost his female form and regained his former shape as a male. At once he took the two children with him to Brahm膩 and told him the whole story. Brahm膩 sent a messenger with 峁歬峁谤补箩补蝉 and had him anointed king of Ki峁indh膩. After the time of 峁歬峁谤补箩补蝉, B膩li became king of Ki峁indh膩.

The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, 鈥榮elf-reliance鈥�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
