I am a deep believer of Jesus Christ and try to follow Him as much as I can. I really appreciate the practice of Santhara , especially considering how corrupt and manipulative our sinful human nature is. Humans are classified into two categories : carnivorous and herbivorous just like in animal kingdom. Carnivorous humans exploit and prey upon their fellow herbivorous brothers and sisters. I am going to fast unto death at some point ( now I am 42 ) , maybe in 60's and spare the consumption of resources to the next generation. I am having great life so far, knowing the truth of life. Respect from Texas.
Jainism is the most scientific and socially positive religion. It is a religion evolved over ages based on learning of experienced philosophers. Your karma not just affect your next life but it will affect your present life itself. If some religion teaches you to be physically, mentally, socially and spiritualy healthy why does one has to rebel it
Harsh jain Because what makes someone "spirituality healthy" is highly subjective. Even these sadhus are in a sort of a "comfort zone" if you think about. Ask them to live in a subzero environment or near a landfill where roads are litered with trash, glass, needles and what not. Or ask them to beg for food in an area which doesn't have Jains to give them the proper food which they can eat. Their lessons about peace, nonviolence & a dependency on materialistic things are very good. But to say that everyone should ideally implement a sadhu lifestyle is not right for everyone.
@@kayjay8819 there is 2 type of Jain's digambar and shwetambar if u see digambar Jain then your mind will blown up And I request without know anything don't comment keep your opinion to yourself
You may visit monks and learn scriptures, purpose etc under them, then if u believe in the purpose of taking renunciation and they deem you fit for this monkhood. Then you will be given a jain diksha.
Jainism and Buddhism are real peaceful religion. It's a way of living. Even though I am an atheist. I attended vippasana meditation and it's life transforming, you too give a try 👍
I am 18 and living in in America. I want to join the Jain monks, for how long I don't know yet but I want to attempt this way of life, does anyone know how to start?
You can check out Jain Vishva Bharati. Or the current Guru, Acharya Shri Mahashraman (you can google him) is visiting Bangalore (India) this summers, July - October. To be candid, its ver hard to get initiated into this monkhood. Its years of preparation and then a decision by the Acharya. But you can perhaps just visit these sadhus and follow them for some time. All the best for your journey of self discovery!
What a wonderful, thought-provoking video! These revered monks live such a Spartan life that it is unimaginable for the average man. They possess so few things that everything a monk possesses can bet put in one small suitcase, except that a monk does not possess even a suitcase! No slippers, no tooth brushes, no soap, no bed, no pillows. Also, these monks eat only one meal a day, I think: a pure vegetarian diet. Yesh Prabhu, Bushkill, Pennsylvania
Thanks for your comment. The objective here is more to showcase the lifestyle - that its possible to live our lives, satisfied and happy, without being dependent on any material possession. It is an extreme but the other extreme is continuing to buy and accumulate or buy, use and throw. May be we can individually think about putting limits on consumption and deciding our own middle paths...
Aren't they dependent on material possessions of others though? I mean, they eat food... That comes from somewhere, right? .. Other than that, I cannot really imagine that these guys could live the same way in northern Europe, for example. They'd freeze to death in winter.
+Lukáš Dohnal They live in coolest places in India too.. These are Shwetambar monks who are wearing something but the other one do not wear any cloth, they wear directions and are called Digambers
Really loved the video and very interesting. One thing I can said is the guy who created that movement 2500 years ago left a few things for the Monks to overcome at the end to reach enlightenment. If you notice they are saying to not be attached to anything. But they are attached to representing themselfs as man, or male. They speak indian, they are attached to that language. They are attached to india, a Nation State. Attached to that mounth peice thing. Once they notice that, enlightenment will happen. It is the final journey.
Addl. clarification - they don't belong to a nation. In the sense that they don't carry any national id like a passport or a voter id or an Aadhaar number (India's biometric id). In fact, they even drop their birth name and instead adopt a new first name, without a second name or a surname.
I belive Jainism needs a Reformer, a new Mahavira, to lead the communitiy to veganism because the milk and by-products industry is causing tremendous pain and harm to the animals and the jivas. Contemporary Jains could lead the world towards Ahimsa...
Clyde200k Just to add more color to what Nitin has written: in Jainism air in and of itself is said to contain many life forms (not visible to the naked eye). These are called "vayu kaya" (vayu = air; kaya = body) beings. Speaking hurts or kills them and covering the mouth reduces that. So more than just about insects...

Why they don't wear any shoes or slipers, their foot may be injured due to wlking long way by foot all other activites are normal but continuous walking without protection of foot is illogical ?? can any Jain will explain...
Yes sir they do wear sleepers at the time of Vihar means when they have to walk more than 8 kms But to travel small distance they don't wear sleepers And the sleepers are made my them itself
These traditional practices are based on science which our dear scientists are very faraway . They change requirements as per situation. We cannot comment on it because there is always a reason behind it we cannot see. ( As mentioned in agam ) the sacred books . If they waste time on proving it they cannot do progress . So they just follow it .
I find it quite contradictory for Jain monks to live like this way. I mean gone are the days when this world was not this materialistic, however living like this in modern era is beyond any logic. For example walking barefoot a complete violation of their own principle of non killing of micro organism
Good question. Let me clarify through a few points: They wear slippers made from recycled tires and tubes for longer distances. But then, if you think about it, even if you wear slippers (or shoes), you may still kill some micro organisms as your foot will step on...the ground! More importantly, they walk with full awareness and keep an eye on the ground as well and make sure they don't step on any insect or visible life which may be crawling, etc. The constant endeavor is to walk around them (and not over them!) Finally, the idea of this video is not to say everyone needs to live like a monk - its not possible nor is practical, as you also point out. Rather it is to showcase that a mid path may be possible, where, instead of use, throw, buy again cycle or shop till you drop culture, you can limit your possessions (vs no limits). Only those who are deeply spiritually inclined (what is seen as 'from prior sanskaras' in Indian culture) and are totally detached from the world, take the path of Jain monkhood. Its neither easy nor is it meant for everyone...
तो क्या चप्पल पहनेसे जिव बचेंगे क्या. अगर नंगे पाव जिव मरते है तो कडकती धुप में चलते भी तो है. कोशीश होती है जिव ना मरे गलति से मरें तो उसके लिये भी प्रायच्शित करते है इससे बडा क्या है. बाकी लोग तो गाय बकरे मुर्गे काट के हिंसा करके जिते है ज्या वो धर्म अच्छा है
Cooking food kills microorganisms in fire They had no desire for food but for body work they eat very limited quantities of food The person who cook the food had done sins by killing microorganisms by fire that are present in the sky but if the food is pure and good according to jains principle he can gave that food to jain monks and giving foods to jains monk make him sinless and his karma become good and he will get no punishment for killing those microorganisms mistakenly I hope you understand Jai jinendra Live and let live. 😊

Jainism has multiple sects. The Jain monks covered here are from Terapanth sect of Jainism and do not have any money nor do they support money transactions of any kind, including kalash, etc. That is done in temples of another sect of Jainism. Not saying one is superior over the other - just different sects...
Woh dusre type ke Jain he . Hum terapanth Jain he Jo na Mandir ko maante he na murti ko aur na pooja kalash ko . Hum sirf atma ko maante aur uski aradhana karte he.
There is a problem in that lifestile too.. they do no want attachememts... but they are VERY attached to their rules and beliefs... the founder of the religion would be very sad to see this. How they put exact messurements at how many squaremeters of clothes one is allowed to use etc. It is like having this rules instead of posessions... but the meaning of the religion is to become free, not only free of posessions, but free of rules from outside to finally find back to source and soul... the rules of life are within!
there is no founder of this religion..... jainism is a way of life and not a religion. you can mould it in your way but the core is minimalistic life, ahimsa, anekantvada, vitragita and seeking for truth (rather than believing in some book) there is a digambara sect of jainism in which monks are skyclad so rule are just to limit possession. religion can never make you free, it binds you and make you blind enough to believe that path you are following is only true path.
Before reading my comment further.. can you just think of one quality that separates humans from animals? Well the answer is 'self control' We as Jains like to live under some self created rules which we find can take our life in good direction and not let it go wild.. uncontrolled... Actually if we notice all of us live under some self controlled rules.. like you or me wearing clothes... The extent only differs
Your questions are natural but what you have seen and understood here is just a tip of iceberg . Animals have no rules and they stay where they are for millions of years only thing they develop is size , adapting environment , food etc . Here we humans as jains the foundation and principles ,rules are developed and based on calculations and understanding the requirements of a monk as per agam ( the sacred books ) which cannot be explained to everyone and neither everyone has the capability to understand , So the main thing is they are told to do what is determined and calculated previously without raising a question , which again tests your devotion and faith on them who designed it. It's a very big very very big theory which cannot be explained it can only be experienced. While following the rules and developing your inner self you will reach a day where there will be no need to think why !!! Because that day you will not think , you will see , why !!! Thanks for watching the video.
Sorry for not replying earlier. This is not plastic but they do put a white paint (varnish) on the outer cloth layer. This basically prevents the white cloth from getting dirty. The idea is to not waste water by washing these frequently...
+James F There is not absoluteness when it comes to Truth. agree humans are part of evolution and evolution is always a plastic phenomena and nothing is absolute.
@@ThunderFire03 looks like so do yours! Replied to my comment instead siting in mediation, if you are a saint if someone says something to you, you should take it, you shouldn't fight it, if you are a knowledgeable Jain you would know this lol.
very illogical way to live - Contribute to the society by bringing change, education, intellect and increasing the human intellect. Rather than living in pre - historic times and retreating back in times when a small section of society would do take up this lifestyle. Converting kids in early age or even people below 30 also should not be allowed because ones intellect is not developed till then and do not have ample exposure to the world to make rational choices. It's fanaticism at its best.
Walking and wandering brings nothing to the world. I am surprised that theae guys decided to clothe themselves like civilized people. So, they do things according to their likes. Instead of doing things that benefits nobody, why cant they do some sort of social work, or follow in the steps of Mother Therese. I think that is,too Christian. It does not bode well with walking naked, not showering, eating once a day, all of which benefits nobody.
Estefanía I think the question was more from a perspective of helping the homeless, people who don't have money to eat, etc. An education in spirituality is fine, but it doesn't do much in terms of practicality.
This video is not about comparison between religions and which is superiour. The beauty of Jainism (and India spiritiual traditions) is that its more about a framework of living life. The core credo is also - to each his or her own path (Anekanta-vad). BTW, these sadhus and sadhvis (nuns) do help all people through things like teaching meditation to resolve stress, guiding, asking people to take strong vows e.g. being truthful, honest, avoiding intoxicants, etc. These are done when they travel through villages and towns and touch thousands of people throughout the country. Its particularly powerful in smaller town and villages where people still respect all religious figures and whichever caste or religion they are from, they take these vows as humans.

what is the proof that allah created all this? The concept of universe in dharmic religion is completely different from abrahamic religion. according to jainism no one can help you, it is only you who can help you. there is no concept of superior being or god or allah. every soul when purified can break the bondage and reach nirvana. so every living being has a potential of being liberated.

Are the face masks used to make sure that insects don't fly into their mouths?
Clyde200k Yes to avoid unintentional killing of Insects and other minute beings not visible by naked eye.

These are called "vayu kaya" (vayu = air; kaya = body) beings. Speaking hurts or kills them and covering the mouth reduces that. So more than just about insects...
So I reckon that they never use medicine as well, because some medicine could work by killing the bacteria or virus that causes the disease?
they take only ayurved and there is no violance in ayurved
By the way, aryuved also works by killing bacteria .. just ingredients are different.

You will become insane and think how insane you were when you will know truth .
Hey, I hope you're happy with your life.
Because no one is.
What they're following isn't religion.
It is way of life.
Their religion make them engligtened
And your religion make you keyboard master
@@ThunderFire03 looks like so do yours! Replied to my comment instead siting in mediation, if you are a saint if someone says something to you, you should take it, you shouldn't fight it, if you are a knowledgeable Jain you would know this lol.

very illogical way to live - Contribute to the society by bringing change, education, intellect and increasing the human intellect. Rather than living in pre - historic times and retreating back in times when a small section of society would do take up this lifestyle.
Converting kids in early age or even people below 30 also should not be allowed because ones intellect is not developed till then and do not have ample exposure to the world to make rational choices. It's fanaticism at its best.
Im sure you have done neither of the above

Walking and wandering brings nothing to the world. I am surprised that theae guys decided to clothe themselves like civilized people. So, they do things according to their likes. Instead of doing things that benefits nobody, why cant they do some sort of social work, or follow in the steps of Mother Therese. I think that is,too Christian. It does not bode well with walking naked, not showering, eating once a day, all of which benefits nobody.
Estefanía I think the question was more from a perspective of helping the homeless, people who don't have money to eat, etc. An education in spirituality is fine, but it doesn't do much in terms of practicality.
They do help people and act as motivators, guides, etc. Its there in the video if you watch it fully...
This video is not about comparison between religions and which is superiour. The beauty of Jainism (and India spiritiual traditions) is that its more about a framework of living life. The core credo is also - to each his or her own path (Anekanta-vad). BTW, these sadhus and sadhvis (nuns) do help all people through things like teaching meditation to resolve stress, guiding, asking people to take strong vows e.g. being truthful, honest, avoiding intoxicants, etc. These are done when they travel through villages and towns and touch thousands of people throughout the country. Its particularly powerful in smaller town and villages where people still respect all religious figures and whichever caste or religion they are from, they take these vows as humans.
By following mother teresa I am sure u are referring to religious conversions right??
if they read in Quran surah rehman they will get answer

Fuzail Khan Terrorist ki language pe aa gaya na. You people are Jihadi decendent of pedophile Mohammed.
We don't need your religion as we have seen what kind of shit is happening in Egypt, Afganistan, Pakistan, syria, Iraq, Iran & many other Muslim countries.

I DO RESPECT ALL PEOPLES BUT DID MAHAVERA CREATED ANIMALS, HUMANS, EARTH, SUN, MOON, PLANETS, BILLIONS OF GLAXIES AND EACH GLAX HAVE TRILLIONS OF PLANETS, UNIVERSE AND HUGE MIGHTY 7 HEAVENS ?????
MAHAVERA ,RAAM, KRISHNA, BUDHA, SHIVA, ALL THEY WAS HUMANS , THEY ARE DEAD THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO, WHY WE SHELL WORSHIP TO THERE IDOLS, WHAT THEY CAN HELP US, FOR WHAT ?
its strange how our human brain works, plants, vegetables too feel pain, if you dont hear there pain its dont mean they dont feel pain, if you cant see air it does not mean there is no air, Why you eat ? you kill plants and fruits,
No Jains do not kill plants and fruits because they do not eat roots.
what is the proof that allah created all this?
The concept of universe in dharmic religion is completely different from abrahamic religion.
according to jainism no one can help you, it is only you who can help you. there is no concept of superior being or god or allah.
every soul when purified can break the bondage and reach nirvana. so every living being has a potential of being liberated.
They get peace in being so. That's why.
Proud to be jain
