In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: archive.org: Jaina YogaGarhā (गर्हा, “repentance”) refers to an aspect of samyaktva (right belief) classified under the guṇa heading, according to various Jain authors (e.g., Cāmuṇḍarāya, Amitagati and Vasunandin). Garhā is the repentance expressed in the form of alocana made in the presence of a guru for faults committed under the influence of passion and hate (Amitagati’s Śrāvakācāra verse 2.74). The interpretation of garhā as of the preceding guṇa depends on Amitagati as the other ācāryas do not explain these terms.
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.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). 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.
