Vardaman Mahavira, the 24th Tirthankara of Jainism, is celebrated for his profound teachings on non-violence, truth, and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment. His insights offer timeless wisdom on how to live a meaningful and harmonious life. Here are some profound quotes by Mahavira that reflect his philosophy and provide guidance for navigating life's challenges.
"All living beings long to live. They all fear death. To all, life is dear."
"A person should wander about treating all creatures as he himself would be treated."
"The soul comes alone and goes alone, no one companies it and no one becomes its mate."
"One who neglects or disregards the existence of earth, air, fire, water, and vegetation disregards his own existence which is entwined with them."
"Nonviolence is the greatest religion."
"A man should wander about treating all creatures as he himself would be treated. Hence, putting himself in the place of the other, let him not kill or cause others to kill."
"Austerities are the acts of the body. False speech is the act of speech. Repugnance to the world is the act of the mind."
"Live and allow others to live; hurt no one; life is dear to all living beings."
