General definition (in Jainism)
Source: archive.org: TrisastisalakapurusacaritraSāsvādanasamyagdṛṣṭi (सास्वादनसम्यग्दृष्टि) refers to one of the Fourteen Guṇasthānas (“steps on the road to emancipation”) according to Hemacandra’s 11th century Triṣaṣṭiśalākāpuruṣacaritra (“lives of the 63 illustrious persons”).—Sāsvādanasamyagdṛṣṭi is reached only by those falling from the fourth guṇasthāna, when mithyātvadarśanamohanīyakarma rises. It lasts only 1 samaya as minimum and 6 āvalis as maximum. It is so-called because during this brief time there is just a trace of samyaktva.
In the second guṇasthāna (i.e., Sāsvādanasamyagdṛṣṭi) are found the pṛthvī-jala-vanaspati divisions of the aparyāpta-bādara one-sensed Jīvas (but not tejas and vāyu), 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-sensed aparyāptas, and paryāptasañjñins. This is according to KG. According to āgama, ekendriyas can not be in the second guṇasthāna. KG IV, p. 97b. This statement, seemingly inconsistent with the fact that the second guṇasthāna is reached only by those falling from the fourth, is explained by the fact that some are reborn before they reach the second. All 6 leśyās may exist.
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.
