General definition (in Jainism)

Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection I

Śālibhadrasūri (शालिभद्रसूरि) is the author of the Buddharāsa (dealing with the Ethics section of Jain Canonical 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.—The author, Śālibhadrasūri, was active between 1150 and 1200 CE. This explains the semi-Prakritic features of his language. He was a member of the rājagaccha and belonged to the lineage of Vajāsenasūri, but none of his works includes his genealogy. According to Jain gurjar Kavio, he is also the author of the Bharateśvara-Bāhubali-rāsa (composed in V.S. 1241), but according to B. Jani, the editor and translator of this latter work (Ahmedabad: Parshva Prakashan, 1994; see also Jinamanjari 8.3 december 1993, pp. 33-52), there is no sufficient evidence to prove that both works were written by the same person.

context information

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.
