philosophy meaning of life


What is way of Life? Jainism Religion is not a Religion... it is always considered as a way of Life! Bhagwan Mahavira the 24th Tirthankara of Jainism always stated that every Human Being has the power to become Bhagwan Mahavira... for every Human Being has the power within to reach the 8.4 Millionth manifestation... the last step in the stage of cosmic Life cycle.

The followers of Bhagwan Mahavira are never known as Mahaviras... the name Jainism is not named after Bhagwan Mahavira, as is the case in Christianity and Buddhism. The followers of Jesus Christ are known as Christians and followers of Gautama Buddha as Buddhists. Jainism has always been considered as a way of Life because it follows the fundamental route of evolution.

The word Jaina is derived from "Jina"... one who has won his real self. In other words, anyone who has won himself is named as Jina... one who has come face to face with our inner self, our Atman the soul within. Having reached the 8.4 Millionth manifestation one has become "Jina"... a free Atman. The Life cycle for this atman the soul within has ended. It has gained immortality forever.

The doctrines of Bhagwan Mahavira emphasize upon this fact that every Human Being must work out his Karma in a fashion that we reach the final goal of cosmic Life... the 8.4 Millionth manifestation and when one shall become Bhagwan Mahavira himself! He never considered himself as a God. He never stated that he was the only son of God and according to him every Human one-day reaches the status of Bhagwan Mahavira in the end. So, why not start on the journey of enlightenment now!


Jainism and in particular Digambara sect and the Teachings of Jainism carry a larger meaning for the whole Humanity. Jainism never differentiates Human Beings as belonging to different Religions and sects. Jainism believes in one and only fact that every Human Being belonging to every Religion and creed... the moment one reaches the last manifest stage... the 8.4 Millionth manifestation... one becomes Bhagwan Mahavira himself.

Way of Life: Definition meaning when i lose it 's a way of life!

Atman the soul within freed forever stops belonging to any Religion or creed. It is absolutely free... it has gained immortality! So is the way of Life every Human Being is required to live and follow for gaining emancipation and finally liberation forever from the cycle of Birth and Death!

Immortality meaning and concept
Immortality ... a word framed by Lord and not coined by a Human Being has altogether a different meaning than we self centered understand! Who becomes immortal? One who after intense Meditation is able to live longer compared to a normal Human Being or one, who does not have to manifest a body again and again and rests in peace in Baikuntha (Abode of God totally different from Heaven).

God the Creator and Man Gods
Creator: "Brahman, the Creator" is one. Gods can be many. Brahman created the Universe and in it all Atmans (Souls). These Atmans manifest themselves in different forms to purify themselves. Once purified ... they attain Moksha (liberation). The purified Atmans have been accorded a status by the Society ... we call them God. Man Gods... are those Human Beings, those jivas who in their Life time have liberated themselves from the cycle of birth and death and have become immortal (amar). They are known as amar for they shall not manifest again.

Human Evolution and becoming Immortal
All these enlightened souls like Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and Prophet Mohammed had transcended life itself. They had become immortal in the true sense that they would not have to indulge again in manifesting life thereafter. Life had truly come full circle for these godly souls.

Letter to all mankind and Immortality
Understand the noble goal of "Atman" within you ... cause for all misery and fear vanishes. None can cause harm to any "Atman" being immortal. The "Atman" can not itself liberate to rejoin the "Lord" until it has cleansed itself (Karma is exhausted) through various manifested physical forms.

Humans Beings and becoming immortal
It is absolutely clear that no human being can directly either go to heaven or the kingdom of God. The domain of heaven and hell and also the kingdom of God is open for soul atmans only. In the physical manifest form of life as a human being or any other form... any wishful thinking of becoming an immortal does not exist in the cosmic system.
