Sheel (शील) yaani आचार-विहार ki suraksha ke liye kuchmukhya upay jo Jain dharm ke anusar theek-maane jaate hain:

• Five trusted vows (Grihasth ke liye anuvrata):

- Ahimsa: hamesha nirama-dharna, hinsa se bachna (jan-jantu, padarth, gaurav ke liye bhi). - Satya: sacchai bolna, jhoot se bachna. - Asteya: churaai ya jhoot ki kamai se bachna; dusron ki vastu ya samay ki) adhar par anuchit labh na lena. - Brahmacharya (Grihasth ke liye niyamit niyam): ya to saambhog par niyantran, santosh aur sraapak vyavahar; parayog ya avinay se bachna. - Aparigraha: anavashyak vasthuon ki kam, sookshm sankalp ke saath sampatti ki seema.

• Vivahik niyamon ki paltan:

- Vishesh shabd-samiksha: solah-swarup ya durvyavahar se bachna; bol-chal mein maryada. - Vahedari (kitchen/food) ki safai aur saadgi: prathama-vastra, shuddha bhojan, mishrit-pannya se door. - Samay par pratikraman: galti ya pap ki yaad par din mein pratikraman, swachh man, bhavna aur vachan ki sudhar. - Dincharya ki shuddhata: niyamit uttaraya, sadhana (paath, bhajan), dusman ki baaton se door.

• Vrat aur upvas:

- Ekadashi, varat (vrat) aur upavas rakhna; vyarth ahar-vyavahar ko kam karna. - Sandhya-puja aur shravak-samiti ki upasthiti: guru/janpadasi ki sikhav se jankari lena.

• Bhasha aur vyavahar:

- Shabd-spandan mein sangat-svar: shant, vinay, madhur bolna; jhagrha ya apmaan se bachna. - Aajnay aur galat alochna se door: dusron ki burai ya afvaahon se parhez.

• Swasthya aur saundarya:

- Swachhata, niyamit nindra (pariyojit aram), vyayam, svasth manasik sthithi; santi bhavna ke saath jeevan.

• Shiksha aur sadhana:

- Jnan aur shravak dharma ki sikh: acharan ki taiyari, pratyaksha-yaatra ya upadesh/pravachan sunna. - Shraddha-patr ki paath: Namokar, Ganadhara, ya Jain stotras se adhyatma-samarthan.

Digambar/Shwetambar mein antar:

• Dono traditiyon mein mool aashaya ek jaise hain: ahimsa, satya, aparigraha, brahmacharya (sthiti ke hisaab se), etc.
• Vyavaharik niyamon ya vraton ki nibandh, mantras ya stotraon ki vyakhya mein thoda bhinn roop mil sakta hai. Agar aap Digambar ya Shwetambar ke vishesh arth chahte hain, bataye; main us hisaab se spast arth aur asli sutra-stotra ke anurup arth pradan kar dungi.

Aap chahein to main in vishwaas-paatraon ka asli Jain sutra/stotra ke saath arth (arth) bhi ek-be-bek samjhakar de sakti hoon. Agar aap kisi vishesh shlok ya stotra ke baare mein jaankari chahte hain, bataye.
