Yoga in Jainism: The Yoga of the Victor (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798271386510)

Journey into "Yoga in Jainism: The Yoga of the Victor," is a ground-breaking work illuminating the often-overlooked Jain yoga tradition. While Vedic and Buddhist yoga are widely discussed, this work provides a critical exposition of the Jain path, filling a persistent scholarly gap. It systematically organizes scattered components from vast Jain texts, presenting a coherent framework. Beginning with all three traditions of Yoga in oriental religions, the book dives deep into Jain ethics, detailing the specific conduct for both householders (Shravaka) and monks (Shramana). Explore core practices like Tapa (austerity), the profound path of Dhyana (meditation), and its link to core Jain philosophy-including Karma, Leshyas, and the Gunasthanas (stages of spiritual development)-on the ultimate quest for Moksha (liberation).
