In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection IŚīlopadeśamālā (शीलोपदेशमाला) is mentioned as the source for the “Añjanā-māhāsatī ro rāsa” (dealing with the lives of Jain female heroes), 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 (identity unknown) mentions the Upadeśamālā as the source he used for the story; wording more general in the ed. consulted: ema kahe śiyala graṃtha upadeśa. It should be understood as designating one of the Śīlopadeśamālās (in Sanskrit or Gujarati), and not Dharmadāsa’s Upadeśamālā which does not contain any version of Añjanāsundarī’s story.
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.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
