In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: Encyclopedia of Jainism: Tattvartha SutraNirbandha (निर्बन्ध, “connecting”) means ‘connecting’ an object (viṣaya) with knowledge (jñāna), according to the 2nd-century Tattvārthasūtra 1.26.—“The range of sensory knowledge (mati) and scriptural knowledge (śruta) extends (nirbandha) to all the six substances but not in all their modes”.
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.
