Jain Meditation

Jain meditation has been the central practice of spirituality in Jainism along with the Three Jewels (Samyak Darshana, Samyak Gyan, Samyak Charitra).  Meditation in Jainism aims at realizing the self, attain salvation and take the soul to complete freedom.  It aims to reach and to remain in the pure state of soul which is believed to be pure conscious, beyond any attachment or aversion.  The practitioner strives to be just a knower-seer (Gyata-Drashta). Jain meditation can be broadly categorized to the auspicious Dharmya Dhyana and Shukla Dhyana and inauspicious Artta and Raudra Dhyana.

Jain meditation is also referred as Samayika.  The word Samayika means being in the moment of continuous real-time. This act of being conscious of the continual renewal of the universe in general and one's own renewal of the individual living being (Jiva) in particular is the critical first step in the journey towards identification with one's true nature, called the Atma.

It is also a method by which one can develop an attitude of harmony and respect towards other humans and Nature. By being fully aware, alert and conscious of the constantly moving present, one will experience their true nature.
