• Jain Geeta as a text: There is no canonical Jain scripture exactly equivalent to the Hindu Bhagavad Gita. Jainism does not have a single "Geeta" that compiles Krishna-like dialogue and yoga paths. Instead, Jain teachings are spread across many sutras and prakrit/sanskrit texts (like Tattvartha Sutra, Angas, Navakar Mantra, etc.). So there is no direct one-to-one set of “shloks” in a Jain Geeta that mirrors the Bhagavad Gita.

• Bhagavad Gita’s core idea: The Bhagavad Gita presents a dialogue where Krishna reveals a path to dharma through devotion (bhakti), knowledge (jnana), and selfless action (karma) within the framework of a theistic God and a warrior’s duty in the world. It integrates devotion to a personal deity with action in life as a means to moksha.

• Jain core teachings (contrast):

- No creator God figure controlling the universe; salvation comes through individual effort and right conduct, culminating in kevala jnana (omniscience) and liberation from karma. - The path is described in terms of right faith, right knowledge, and right conduct, plus rigorous ethics (ahimsa, aparigraha, anekantavada) rather than a single devotional or theistic surrender. - Karma is highly detailed as a system of karmic particles binding the soul; liberation is achieved by shedding karmic bondage through disciplined thought, speech, and action.

• Shloks/verses in Jain tradition vs. Bhagavad Gita:

- The Bhagavad Gita uses verses that counsel surrender to God and perform one’s duty with detachment, framed as a theistic yoga for householders and renunciants alike. - Jain sutras teach through concise aphorisms and dialogues on karma, ethics, and the nature of reality, but they do not present a single discourse of the same format as the Gita. The emphasis is on correcting perception (samyak dṛṣti), conduct (śīla), and spiritual knowledge rather than worship of a personal God as the central mechanic for liberation.

• Digambar and Śvetāmbar differences (relevant to this topic):

- Both traditions uphold the same fundamental Jain goals, but their canons, interpretive lenses, and liturgical texts differ. This can lead to variations in how certain topics (like the nature of God, liberation, or the status of certain deities and practices) are explained. In practical terms, while the Bhagavad Gita speaks of God and personal devotion in a Hindu framework, Jain sources within either tradition emphasize the soul’s own effort and the karmic path, with different textual authorities guiding each tradition.

If you want, I can point out specific Jain texts that cover similar themes (like duty, detachment, or ethical action) in Jain terms, and contrast those with the Bhagavad Gita’s formulations.
