padvi list for monks
Padvi is not a standard, widely-recognized term in Jain scriptures for monks. If you meant something specific by “Padvi list” (for example, a sequence, a ritual, or a particular set of duties), please share a bit more context.
What is commonly referred to in Jain monastic life:
- Male monks: Muni ( Digambar and Shwetambar traditions have slightly different codes), and they follow strict Vinaya.
- Female renunciants: Aryika (senior nuns) and Śrāvikā/Sādhunī (junior nuns), with different rules in Digambar and Shwetambar communities.
- Everyday practices: five supreme vows (Mahavratas) for monks, daily meditation, study of scriptures, and adherence to discipline set by their respective Vinayas.
If you want, tell me exactly what you’re looking for under “Padvi” (a list of duties, a sequence in a ceremony, a typology of monks, etc.), and I’ll provide a precise Jain explanation in line with Digambar and Shwetambar traditions.
