Immanence in Hinduism and Jainism: New Planetary Thinking?
Jain Tantra: An Overview
The Jain faith is known first and foremost for its thoroughgoing commitment to nonviolence (ahiṃsā) and emphasis on psychic and bodily purity (śuddha, śubha).

The modern period has yielded more nuanced definitions of nature, seeing the process of life as self-generating and self-sustaining. The Jaina worldview, dating from the first several centuries before the common era, has developed an elaborate biological schematic t…

Thomas Berry, Buddhism, and the New Cosmology
