A library for the study
of Jain Dharma.

The Āgamas, the Tattvārthasūtra, and the philosophy of ahiṃsā and anekāntavāda.

Jainism, with its emphasis on non-violence, many-sidedness and self-discipline, is among India's oldest living traditions. This section organises its scripture as the two major communities preserve it: the Śvetāmbara Āgamas, the Digambara Ṣaṭkhaṇḍāgama, and the Tattvārthasūtra that both accept, together with the Kalpa Sūtra. Free translations include Hermann Jacobi's public-domain Jaina Sūtras. You will also find the International Journal of Jaina Studies, centres such as the SOAS Centre of Jaina Studies and Jain Vishva Bharati Institute, digital archive projects, and a Community page for jobs, funding, workshops and organisations like JAINA. Every link points to a verified, legitimate source.
