    What are vows of married couple

    5 months ago 60

    In Jain Dharma, a married couple are गृहस्थs (householders), and their vows are centered on dharma, mutual purity, restraint, and non-violence.

    The main vows for a married Jain couple are:

    1. Ahimsa — not to harm any living being, in body, speech, or mind.
    2. Satya — to speak truthfully.
    3. Asteya — not to take what is not given.
    4. Brahmacharya / marital fidelity — to remain faithful to one’s spouse and keep purity in conduct.
    5. Aparigraha — to keep limited possessions and avoid greed.

    For married life, these are practiced as Anuvratas — the smaller vows for householders. A Jain couple also vows to:

    • live with mutual respect,
    • support each other in धर्म,
    • avoid violence and harsh speech,
    • observe restraint in desires,
    • and practice compassion toward all beings.

    In simple words, a Jain married couple’s vow is to live together in faithfulness, self-control, truth, non-violence, and spiritual support.
