In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: Encyclopedia of Jainism: Tattvartha Sutra 8: Bondage of karmasDarśanāvaraṇīya (दर्शनावरणीय) is another name for Darśanāvaraṇa, or “perception obscuring (karmas)”: one of the eight types of Prakṛti-bandha (species bondage): one of the four kinds of bondage (bandha) according to the 2nd-century Tattvārthasūtra chapter 8.—Accordingly, “what is meant by obscuring (āvaraṇa)? It means to put a veil or cover or to hide. The cover used to hide is called āvaraṇa. What is meant by perception obscuring karma (darśanāvaraṇa)? The karma which obscures or covers the perception attribute of the soul is called perception obscuring karma”.
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.

Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
