In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection ISumatisādhusūri (सुमतिसाधुसूरि) is the name of an ancient teacher in the lineage of Lāvaṇyasamaya: the author of the “Sumatisādhusūri nau vīvāhalau” (dealing with individual religious teachers in Jain 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 present work has neither a date nor the author’s genealogy. In this poem, Lāvaṇyasamaya writes about one of his predecessors, Sumatisādhusūri. The text does not include any date on the latter’s biography. For such information one has to turn to tapāgaccha genealogies or other sources, where we learn that Sumatisādhusūri was born in VS 1494 and died in VS 1551 (see Shivprasad, Tapāgaccha kā Itihāsa p. 121).
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.
