Accordingly:鈥斺�淸...] The Lord (i.e., Kunthu) got out of the palanquin, abandoned his ornaments, etc., and became a mendicant together with a thousand kings, while observing a two-day fast, on the fifth day of the black half of Vai艣膩kha in the afternoon, (the moon being) in the K峁泃tik膩s. He attained the fourth knowledge called 鈥榤ind-reading.鈥� On the next day the Master broke his fast with rice-pudding in the house of King 痴测腻驳丑谤补蝉颈峁僪补 in the city Cakrapura. The five things, the stream of treasure, et cetera, were made there by the gods; but a platform of jewels was made by Vy膩ghrasi帽ha on the place of the Lord鈥檚 feet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.
