General definition (in Jainism)
Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection IĀgneyakūṇi (आग्नेयकूणि) refers to one of the corners (kūṇi) of the samavasaraṇa (sacred space), according to the Golerā temple (Kumalgadh, Udaipur State), which has labels following the same lines as the Samavasaraṇastotra and the Dvādaśaparṣad, both texts dealing with the directions or the ‘corners’ (kūṇi) where the groups of beings (Parṣad) attending the samavasaraṇa sacred space have to sit or stand. The Golerā temple specifies how many figures of each category have to be depicted, e.g., the āgneyakūṇi:—1 parṣada mahātmānāṃ rūpa, 2 parṣada Vaimānikadevīnāṃ 4 rūpa, 3 parṣada mahāsatīnāṃ 4 rūpa.
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.
