    JAIN ARE WHICH CASTE

    2 months ago 41

    Jain is not a caste.

    • Jain is a dharma (religion), like Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, etc.
    • People who follow Jain dharma are called Jains.
    • Jains can belong to many different social communities (jatis) like Oswal, Porwal, Agarwal, Khandelwal, Srimal, Vania, etc. These are community or caste names, not the religion itself. ( jainknowledge.com)

    In Jainism:

    • Spiritual progress does not depend on caste or birth.
    • Any soul from any background can follow Jain dharma and attain moksha through right faith, right knowledge and right conduct. ( jainknowledge.com)

    So: Jains are followers of Jain religion, not a single caste.
