General definition (in Jainism)
Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection IArbudācala (अर्बुदाचल) or Arbudācalacaityaparipāṭī is the name of a work by Somadevasūri dealing with Sacred places in Jain literature.—The Arbudācala-caityaparipāṭī (in Gujarati) is included in the collection of manuscripts at the ‘Vincenzo Joppi’ library, collected by Luigi Pio Tessitori during his visit to Rajasthan between 1914 and 1919.—The Arbudācala-caityaparipāṭī represents a praise of the holiness of Abu as a Jain sacred place even called an avatāra of Śatruṃjaya to which it is equal (vs. 49), well deserves the designation caityaparipāṭī ‘temple tour’ given in the colophon as, in agreement with this micro-genre, it deals in turn with the various Jain temples found at Abu.
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.
