General definition (in Jainism)
: archive.org: Trisastisalakapurusacaritraܱٲ (समाधिगुप्त) is the name of an ancient Muni, according to chapter 6.8 [śī-貹峾--ٰ] of Hemacandra’s 11th century Triṣaṣṭiśalākāpuruṣacaritra: an ancient Sanskrit epic poem narrating the history and legends of sixty-three illustrious persons in Jainism.
Accordingly:—“There is a city Śrīnagara in the province Sukaccha, ornament of East Videha in this Jambūdvīpa. There King Prajāpāla, devoted to the care of his subjects, was a cloud for the scattering of the haṃsas of the glory of other kings. One day, when he saw a sudden flash of lightning, disgusted with existence, he took the vows in the presence of Muni ܱٲ. For a long time he kept the vows like the blade of a sword and, after he died, was born as the Indra of Acyuta. For even a little penance is not fruitless�.

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.
