General definition (in Jainism)
Source: The University of Sydney: A study of the Twelve ReflectionsKalyāṇamandira (कल्याणमन्दिर) refers to the “(great) abode of the auspicious events”, according to the 11th century Jñānārṇava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Śubhacandra.—Accordingly, “The doctrine freely bestows the power of the venerable omniscient one which is furnished with the great eminences [and] is the great abode of the auspicious [events] (kalyāṇamandira—kalyāṇoddāmamandiram). It goes along with [sentient beings to the other world], then it protects, produces benefit always [and], having saved [them] from the mire of life it sets [them] on the pure path [of liberation]”.
Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection IKalyāṇamandira (कल्याणमन्दिर) or Kalyāṇamandirastotra refers to one of the Stotras included in the manuscript of the Saptasmaraṇa (dealing with classical hymns and stotras from Jain literature), 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.
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.
