In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: The University of Sydney: A study of the Twelve ReflectionsNirvṛtta (निर्वृत्त) refers to “origination (of the body)”, according to the 11th century Jñānārṇava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Śubhacandra.—Accordingly, “Former [bodies are] destroyed by the thousand here by those same atoms of matter by means of which your body originated (nirvṛtta) in birth here”.
Synonyms: Nirmāpita.
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.
