General definition (in Jainism)
Source: University of Cambridge: JainismDaśavaikālikasūtrāvacūri (दशवैकालिकसूत्रावचूरि) is a Sanskrit commentary on the Daśavaikālikasūtra: the 2nd Mūlasūtra of the Śvetāmbara canon. The Sūtra is ascribed to the monk Śayambhava (or Sijjaṃbhava in its Prakrit form). The last four stanzas are originally taken from the Daśavaikālikaniryukti. This concise treatise deals with the correct ascetic behaviour; it consists of ten chapters (ajjhayaṇa) and the two cūlikās.
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.
