General definition (in Jainism)
: archive.org: Jaina Yoga鲍辫补艣补尘补 (啶夃お啶多ぎ, 鈥渢ranquility鈥�) refers to an aspect of samyaktva (right belief) classified under the 驳耻峁嘺, while its synonym 艣补尘补 falls under the 濒颈峁単补 heading, according to various Jain authors (e.g., C膩mu峁囜笉ar膩ya, Amitagati and Vasunandin).

Accordingly,
鈥淸...] Vajran膩bha instantly became completely acquainted with the ocean of scriptures, just as if the twelve 补峁単补蝉 visible to the eye had become combined in one living body. B膩hu and the others were learned in eleven 补峁単补蝉. For the wealth of merit is varied in accordance with the variation in destruction (办峁测补) and subsidence (耻辫补艣补尘补) of karma鈥�.
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, 鈥榮elf-reliance鈥�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
