Meaning:

• Kshma veerasya bhushanam = "Forgiveness is the ornament of the brave."

Explanation (Jain perspective):

• Kshama (forgiveness) is a key virtue in Jain ethics. True bravery (veera) is not about violence or retaliation, but about mastering one's passions and choosing non-violence and compassion.
• Therefore, a courageous person displays kshama by forgiving others, which is the finest adornment (bhushanam) a person can wear.

Notes:

• This idea is widely found in Jain teachings as an expression of inner strength through non-violence and self-control.
• There may be small wording variations in different Jain texts, but the core message remains the same.
