General definition (in Jainism)
Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection IĀyārapaṇahī (आयारपणही) (in 9 stanzas) is the name of the eighth chapter of the Daśavaikālika, which was versified in Gujarati by Jetasī and named Dasagīta, which 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 Dasagīta is a versified Gujarati rendering of the ten chapters of the Daśavaikālikasūtra (written as Dasamīkāla at the end of the text and in one of the marginal titles), hence the title Dasagīta ‘ten songs’. Either at the beginning or at the end of each chapter, the author gives a Gujarati form of the original title of the Daśavaikālika chapters [e.g., Āyārapaṇahī]. [...] As stated in the final verse, the present Dasagīta was composed in Bikaner (Rajasthan) in VS 1707 (1650 ce).
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.
