Jain dharm ke hisaab se:

1. Pani me jeev hote hain

- Jal-kaya (water-bodied beings) ekindriya jeev hote hain (sirf sparsh-indiya). - Woh bhi hamari tarah anadi–anant atma wale jeev hain, bas unka sharir jal-rupi hai.

1. Kya pani me janam lekar pani me hi khatm ho jata hai?

- Nahi. Koi bhi jeev khatm / nasht nahi hota. - Sharir badalta hai, atma kabhi nahi marta, na mitti hai, na pani me khatm hoti hai. - Jal-kaya ka shareer tootne par, us jeev ka punarjanm uske karm ke anusaar kahin aur hota hai – phir se jal-kaya, ya kisi doosri yonī (vanaspati, tiryanch, manusya, narak, dev) me.

1. Mukhya baat

- “Pani me janam liya, to pani me hi sama gaya” – aisi baat Jain dharm me nahi hai. - Jain siddhant: atma nashvar nahi, sirf shareer nashvar hai. - Har jeev anant kaal tak sansar me ghoomta hai, jab tak moksh na mile.

Pani me jeevon ki shreni (jal-kaya adi) ke baare me aur panch-indriya tak ka vargikaran yahan samjhaaya gaya hai
