Who won only 6 khand and not 7th khand
Answer
In Jain tradition, a Chakravarti is said to conquer the six khands. The most well-known example is Bharat Chakravarti.Explanation
- “Six khands” refers to the six divisions of a land area that a Chakravarti conquers.
- A Chakravarti is a universal emperor in Jain tradition.
- The 7th khand is not conquered in the same way, because the spiritual victory of Jain Dharma is not about endless worldly conquest.
Spiritual Understanding
Jain teaching shows that even the greatest worldly power is limited. True greatness is not in conquering more land, but in conquering:- anger
- pride
- deceit
- greed
That is the real victory.
