In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Gaṇitasāra (गणितसार) is the name of a Jaina work written by Thakkara Pheru and deals with arithmetic.
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.
