Jaina Philosophy

A complex reality may allow partial descriptions without making every description complete.

01 / SUMMARY

In short

Jaina philosophy develops nonviolence, non-attachment, and a many-sided epistemology. It also advances a traditional metaphysics of souls, matter, and karma that belongs to its historical framework.

03 / SCENE

In the wild

Apparently incompatible descriptions may capture different aspects when perspective, scope, and conditions are specified.

04 / LIMIT

The limit

Many-sidedness does not make every opinion true or abolish contradiction.

FINAL NOTE

What remains

Attach the viewpoint and limit under which a claim may be adequate.
