Devlok With Devdutt Pattanaik
Season 3 Episode 15 - Jainism
In this episode of Devlok, Devdutt Pattanaik explores Jainism, a faith closely related to Buddhism through their shared sharaman parampara tradition. The religion centers on Anekantvada (diverse thoughts) and the concept of jeev (soul) and ajeev (matter), teaching that souls become trapped by worldly matter. Each generation sees 24 teerthankars who achieve moksh (complete purity) and guide others toward liberation. Their identical temple statues represent their purified souls, with Devdutt also discussing the Mahapurusha, comprising the 24 teerthankars, 12 chakravarti, and 27 heroes.
