    The no kasahy names

    10 months ago 90

    Could you clarify what you mean by "The no kasahy names"? If you’re asking about Kasaya (passions) in Jainism, here is a brief, simple overview.

    • Kasaya (passions) are the inner afflictions that bind the soul. The goal is to reduce or shed them (nirjara) through right faith, right knowledge, and right conduct.
    • The most common list of major Kasaya includes:
    - Raga (attachment, attraction) - Dvesa (dosa) (aversion, hatred) - Moha (delusion, ignorance) - Mada (pride, arrogance) - Lobh (greed) - Matsarya (jealousy) - Krodha (anger)
    • In Jain thought, there are differing terminologies between Digambaras and Śvetāmbaras for some sub-passions, but the core idea remains: these Kasaya cloud discrimination and obstruct spiritual progress.
    • To overcome them, practitioners focus on:
    - Samyak Darshana (correct viewpoint) - Samyak Jnana (correct knowledge) - Samyak Charitra (correct conduct) - Regular self-discipline, meditation, and following the Mahavratas or similar vows depending on tradition.

    If you meant a different phrase or want the exact Sanskrit/Hindi terms and meanings from Jain scriptures, tell me which Jain tradition (Digambara or Śvetāmbara) you prefer, and I’ll provide precise terms and their meanings.
