Jainism

Jainism is an Indian religion that traces its spiritual ideas and history through the succession of twenty-four tirthankaras, with the first in the current time cycle being Rishabhadeva and the twenty-fourth tirthankara Mahavira. The three main pillars of Jainism are ahiṃsā (non-violence), anekāntavāda (non-absolutism), and aparigraha (non-possessiveness), and Jain monks take five main vows, including non-violence, truth, chastity, and non-possessiveness. The religion has two major ancient sub-traditions, Digambaras and Śvētāmbaras, and has between four and five million followers, known as Jains or Jainas, who reside mostly in India, Canada, Europe, and the United States.learn more on wikipedia
