    Example of panch parmeshti

    one year ago 196

    In Jainism, the Panch Parmeshti (also spelled as Panch Parameshti) refers to the five supreme beings who are venerated and worshipped in the Jain tradition. These five are considered the most revered and hold the highest spiritual status. They are:

    1. Arihant (Tirthankara)

    Perfected beings who have conquered inner passions like anger, pride, deceit, and greed, and have attained Kevala Jnana (infinite knowledge). They teach the path of liberation.

    1. Siddha

    Liberated souls who are free from the cycle of birth and death (moksha). They have no body, only pure consciousness and bliss.

    1. Acharya

    The head of the Jain congregation or order (sangha). Acharyas are responsible for the spiritual and organizational guidance of monks, nuns, and lay followers.

    1. Upadhyaya

    Preceptors or teachers of the Jain scriptures. They instruct monks, nuns, and laypeople in the study and understanding of Jain texts.

    1. Sadhu (Muni)

    Monks who have renounced worldly life and follow strict vows of non-violence, truth, celibacy, non-stealing, and non-possession.

    These five are saluted in the Namokar Mantra (Navkar Mantra), the most important Jain prayer.
