General definition (in Jainism)
Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection IVinayakuśala (विनयकुशल) is the name of a teacher in the lineage of Gajakuśala: the “Saṃkheśvara Pārśvanātha-stavana” (dealing with Pārśva 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 Gajakuśala (mentioned here without school affiliation or Guru’s name) could then be the same as Jain gurjar Kavio 4, p. 261 who wrote a Guṇāvalī Guṇakaraṇḍa rāsa in VS 1714 and belonged to the tapāgaccha: Vinayakuśala—Darśanakuśala—Gajakuśala).
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.
