Shantinath Dada ke updesh (Shantinath Bhagwan ke shikshan) ki saransh:

• Shantinath Jain Tirthankar hain, Digambar aur Shwetambar dono sangh mein 11th Tirthankar maana jata hai. Inka pratik chita (mood) ka ghoda? (Prateek alag-alag sahitya mein thoda bhinn hota hai; aam roop se inka pratik sarapha deer hai.)
• Mool vichar: shanti, ahimsa (non-violence), satya (truth), brahmacharya (brahmacharya yatharth), aparigraha (aparigrah) jaise satvik vikaron par zor.
• Spasht sandesh: man, vachan, kriya—yahi teenon mein sadhucintan ho; chintan, dharan aur acharan ko ek saath milakar jeevan ko pavitra banaya ja sakta hai.
• Anekantavada ki buniyad: har mushkil ya samasya ko ek hi nazariye se na dekha jaye; alag-alag drishtikon ko samjhna (anekantavad) ka sahara lekar samvedansheel jivan apnaana chahiye.
• Sanyas aur tapas: atma ki shuddhi ke liye tapas, dhyan, virakta aur man ki niyaman ki pratha ko mahatva diya jata hai.
• Vinay aur sadachar: sangh ke niyamon ka paalan, dusron ki ijjat, aur sadaiv vinay ki bhavna.

Digambar aur Shwetambar ke beech thodi bhinnataen:

• Dono dharmon me Shantinath ki puja hoti hai aur unhe ek Tirthankar ke roop me maana jata hai, lekin kuch vyakhya ya pratimaon me sankshipt bhinnata ho sakti hai.
• Updeshon ki vyakhya, mandir-rituals ya kuch visheṣ kathayein alag sahitya me thodi alag ho sakti hain, par mool dharma-sandarbh (shanti, ahimsa, aparigraha, satya) ek hi rehta hai.

Agar aap chahen, main Shantinath ke updeshon par adhik vistar se block-by-block vyakhya (arth) de sakta hoon ya Digambar/Shwetambar ki vishesh vyakhyaon ka comparison de sakta hoon.
