INTRODUCTION: DISCOVERING THE IMPORTANCE OF KSHATRIYAS IN HINDU MYTHOLOGY:

The Kshatriyas play a central role in Hindu society as the warrior community that is responsible for maintaining a righteous system and safeguarding it from outside threats.

UNDERSTANDING THE “PURANIC” CONTEXT:

“Puranic” refers to a set of ancient Hindu texts known as Puranas that contain mythological stories, cosmological theories, religious teachings etc. These writings which were written between 3rd and 10th centuries CE are invaluable sources of information about the cosmos of Hindus, their concept of God and how they should live.

Jainism, one of the worlds oldest religions, offers deep insights on reality, human life and moral existence. Jain philosophy is founded on three fundamental ideas; Ahimsa (non-violence), Anekantavada (non-absolutism) and Aparigraha (non- possession). This book provides an in-depth examination of these basic aspects of Jainism such as their meaning, practical implications and transformative value in guiding people towards moral behavior and spiritual development.

The Principle of Non-Violence:The principle of non-violence is described as being not merely the backbone but also the corner stone of Jain philosophy. It goes further than just refraining from physical injury; it encompasses all forms of harm that are inflicted upon sentient beings including psychological, emotional or environmental harm. Ahimsa demands that individuals should acquire compassion, empathy for others and respect for each form of life since all forms are interconnected with a common nature. Jains embrace Ahimsa to avoid causing any suffering if they can help it, to create peaceful relationships with others and maintain harmony in their interaction with the world around them.

Looking Back: Kshatriyas date back to India's time­-worn religious texts, chiefly the­ Vedas and the Puranas. Hindu myths tell a tale­: the varna order came from a divine­ being, Purusha.
