Detailed explanation-1: -Time, according to the Jains, is eternal and formless.
Detailed explanation-2: -Jains think that the universe is non-created and eternal and that its different worlds are interconnected. Understanding and meditating on the complex structure of the Jain universe is essential to promote spiritual awakening.
Detailed explanation-3: -While Jainism is dualistic-that is, matter and souls are thought to be entirely different types of substance-it is frequently said to be atheistic. What is denied is a creator god above all. The universe is eternal, matter and souls being equally uncreated.
Detailed explanation-4: -The supreme principle of Jain living is non violence (ahimsa). This is one of the 5 mahavratas (the 5 great vows). The other mahavratas are non-attachment to possessions, not lying, not stealing, and sexual restraint (with celibacy as the ideal).
