In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection I1) Vīravijaya (वीरविजय) is the author of the Pārśvanāthastotra (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.—Vīravijaya, who was active in the first part of the 17th c. CE, belonged to the kharataragaccha and was the disciple of Tejasāra. Vīravijaya composed other hymns and religious works as well: see Vinayasāgar, “Jain gurjar Kavio” Sāhitya Kośa nos. 1089, 1748, 6300-6303. His dated works are from VS 1641, 1652, 1653 and 1661. This seems to be a typical instance of Jain hymns which circulated locally in Rajasthan, where their manuscripts are kept.
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.
