only santinath dada
Śāntinātha (Santinath Dada) is the 11th Tirthankara in the current time cycle in Jainism. He is revered as a symbol of inner peace, calm, and non-violence.
Key points:
- Identity: Śāntinātha, the 11th Tirthankara.
- Qualities: calmness, compassion, non-violence, spiritual serenity.
- Iconography: traditionally associated with peace and often depicted in a serene, composed form.
- Traditions: both Digambar and Shwetambar communities honor Śāntinātha; minor iconographic details may differ between the two traditions, but the essential meaning remains the same.
If you’d like, I can provide a specific stotra or prayer dedicated to Śāntinātha (along with its original text and Jain-approved meaning) and note any differences between Digambar and Shwetambar readings.
