    Who develop these books of jain knowledge ? Because jain people have different sect also which totally opposite nowdays with each others and fighting for worship places and way of worship!

    Jain knowledge books were developed over time by Tirthankars’ teachings, Ganadhars, Acharyas, and learned Jain scholars.

    In simple terms:

    • Tirthankars gave the original spiritual message.
    • Ganadhars compiled and organized that teaching for disciples.
    • Later, Acharyas preserved, explained, and expanded it through Agams, commentaries, stotras, and dharma texts.
    • Different sects, such as Digambar and Shwetambar, preserved some texts and practices in different ways.

    About differences between sects:

    It is true that Jain sects sometimes disagree on:
    • murtipujA or non-murtipujA
    • worship methods
    • scriptural acceptance
    • temple traditions
    • monastic discipline

    But the core Jain principles are the same:

    • Ahimsa
    • Satya
    • Asteya
    • Brahmacharya
    • Aparigraha
    • belief in karma, soul, moksha, and self-purification

    Important point:

    Jainism teaches non-violence, restraint, and respect. So fighting over worship places or rituals is against Jain spirit. Differences should be handled with shanti, vinay, and samajh.

    In short:

    The books of Jain knowledge were not made by one single person. They came through a line of spiritual transmission and preservation from Tirthankars to Ganadhars to Acharyas.

    If you want, I can also explain:

    • how Jain Agams were formed, or
    • why Digambar and Shwetambar texts differ.
