Gotra kya hota hai

Gotra ka arth hota hai kul / vansh / lineage — yani aap kis parivaarik parampara se sambandhit hain.

Jain Dharma me “Gotra” ka vishesh arth do tarah se samjha ja sakta hai:

1. Laukik gotra

- Parivar ya kul ki pehchaan. - Jaise kisi vyakti ka kul-nam ya vansh-parampara.

1. Karmic gotra

- Jain siddhant me Gotra karma bhi hota hai. - Yeh karma jeev ko uchch kul, samman, ya neecha sthaan pradan karne me sahayak hota hai. - Iske do prakar maane jaate hain: - Uccha Gotra Karma — uchch kul, maryada, samman ka kaaran - Neecha Gotra Karma — nimna sthiti, avaman ya adhar sthiti ka kaaran

Saral shabdon me: Gotra ka matlab hai kul ki pehchaan, aur Jain drishti se yeh ek karma-bandhan bhi hai jo jeev ki laukik sthiti ko prabhavit karta hai.

Agar chaho, main Jain dharma ke hisaab se gotra karma ka aur saral arth bhi samjha sakta hoon.
