Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection IVinayarāja (विनयराज) (disciple of Hemaśīla) was the recipient of the copying of the manuscript Jñātādharmakathāṅgasūtra (dealing with the Aṅga 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 recipient of the Jñātādharmakathāṅgasūtra manuscript was Vinayarāja, a disciple of Hemaśīla the instigator of the manuscript production. Hemaśīla occurs at the end of a work composed by one of his other pupils, Vijayaśīla, in VS 1641, along with Dharmamūrtisūri (Jain gurjar Kavio 2, p. 190).
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.
