anekantavada example

🐘 Classic Story: “Blind Men and the Elephant” (Jain version) Six blind men touch different parts of an elephant: One touches the leg → “Elephant is like a pillar.” One touches the tail → “It’s like a rope.” One touches the ear → “It’s like a fan.” One touches the trunk → “It’s like a snake.” One touches the tusk → “It’s like a spear.” One touches the belly → “It’s like a wall.” 🎤 Truth? They're all partially correct, but not entirely. That’s Anekantavada: truth has many sides, and no single statement can capture the whole.

mahavir ne apni saari teachings kis language mein di thi

Prakrit

🔱 What is Ananta Chatushtaya?

Let’s decode the name first: Ananta = Infinite ♾️ Chatushtaya = Fourfold / Four things So this is the "Four Infinities" that a soul (jiva) achieves when it reaches liberation (moksha). In Jainism, every soul has these 4 infinite qualities deep inside, but they’re currently blocked by karma—like Wi-Fi being blocked by a thick wall 🧱📶. Remove karma → Boom 💥 all 4 powers activate. Ananta Gyan(knowledge ) , Ananta Darshna(Perception) Ananta Virya (Power) Ananta Anand (Bliss)
