Where to finda papers on samyañc in Jainism?
Samyañc likely corresponds to the idea of samyak/samyac in Jain texts (meaning “correct” or “proper”). For scholarly papers specifically on this topic, a good, accessible venue is:
- Samyak: An Undergraduate Journal of Jain Studies (University of North Texas). It publishes student research on Jain studies, including topics related to Jain philosophy and ethics that cover samyak/anekāntavāda ideas in practice.
Notes:
- In Digambar and Śvetāmbara traditions, the exact term and nuance may differ in spelling and emphasis, but the core concept of right understanding (samyak) is central to both.
- If you’re looking for formal academic papers beyond student journals, you may want to search for Jain studies journals or university repositories that publish when discussions of samyak, samyak jñāna, or anekāntavāda appear.
If you’d like, I can help you identify specific articles from Samyak or guide you on searching Jain studies repositories for papers on samyak/samyac in the two traditions.
