Encouraging Minds: The Changing Face of Education

Jainism, one of the oldest religions that began in ancient India, gives deep insights about existence, ethics and spirituality. Fundamental ideas of Jain philosophy include Dravya (substance), Pramana (valid knowledge), Soul (Jiva) and Karma (action and its consequences). This inclusive examination will look into each of these pivotal concepts in Jain religion by clarifying their meanings, importance as well as implications for personal transformation and spiritual growth.

Dravya: The Essence of Existence In Jainism, Dravya signifies the basic substances or categories of reality that make up the universe. According to Jain philosophy, there are six eternal substances which never change; they are known as Dravyas:

• Jiva (Soul): The sentient conscious being that has individual consciousness and undergoes birth, death, rebirth (samsara).
• Ajiva (Non-living): The non-sentient inactive entities that exist together with souls but serve as their backdrop in order to make them experience life. Ajive is inclusive of matter (Pudgala), space(Akasha), time(Kala) and motion(Dharma).
• Pudgala (Matter): Pudgala is a physical world’s material substance made up of atoms, molecules and all solid objects that one can touch. Pudgala has attributes which include; color, taste, smell and touch.
• Akasha (Space): The space without boundaries between objects in the universe. Akasha enables matter and souls to exist or move about.
• Kala (Time): Time is an everlasting dimension that never changes and determines the order of events as they happen in life. Time is a continuous flow with moments like past, present and future.
• Dharma (Motion): Dharma refers to a natural impulse or force that causes objects or entities to move within the universe, interacting with each other. It makes reality dynamic by ensuring a constant change of existence.
• To understand Jainism worldview it is important to comprehend Dravya– its essence lies in seeing everything around as interconnected whole that cannot be separated from one another. By understanding how Dravyas are interconnected Jains learn to acknowledge the sacredness of existence and reduce violence in their relationships with the world.

Interactive Whiteboards: Make changing visual aids that are interactive learning boards. These boards may include subject-related maps, timelines, or topical displays. Students could actively participate in historical events by using a history board, which could feature a timeline with movable elements. Displays are a fantastic tool for bringing stories to life. Making dioramas enables students to go deeper into the details to understand the material, whether it's a scene from a historical event, a setting from a novel, or a representation of the solar system.

Hindi (हिन्दी):
नासतो विद्यते भावो नाभावो विद्यते सतः।
उभयोरपि दृष्टोऽन्तस्त्वनयोस्तत्त्वदर्शिभिः॥

ubhayorapi dṛiṣhṭo'ntastvanayos tattvadarśhibhiḥ.

Meaning (Hindi):
उस अदृश्य आत्मा का कोई नाश नहीं होता है और सत्ता का कोई अभाव नहीं होता। ये दोनों विचारों को तत्वज्ञानी पुरुषों ने देखा है।
