Is joytish devas very rare to get in heaven
Answer
If you mean Jyotish devas, then yes, it is considered a fortunate and merit-based birth, but Jain Dharma does not usually describe it as the rarest heavenly birth.Explanation
In Jain cosmology, devas are born according to their karma and punya. The Jyotish devas are the celestial beings associated with the sun, moon, stars, and planets.A few important points:
- Being born as a deva is generally the result of good karma.
- Jyotish deva birth is a special celestial state, but it is not the highest heavenly realm.
- In Jainism, all heavenly births are temporary.
- Even a deva life is not the final goal; the highest goal is moksha.
So, if your question is about rarity, the safest Jain answer is:
- Yes, it is a merit-born and blessed state
- But “very rare” is not the usual way Jain texts emphasize it
- Jain Dharma focuses more on liberation than on heavenly birth
Spiritual Understanding
Jain teaching reminds us that even heavenly pleasure is not permanent. A deva birth may bring comfort and splendor, but it does not remove karma forever.The true spiritual aim is to:
- reduce bondage,
- purify the soul,
- and move toward Keval Gnan and Moksha.
