Total count for jain philosophy
Answer
If you mean the main count of fundamental principles in Jain philosophy, Jain Dharma is commonly explained through 7 Tattvas:
- Jīva — soul
- Ajīva — non-soul
- Āsrava — inflow of karma
- Bandha — bondage of karma
- Saṃvara — stoppage of karma
- Nirjarā — shedding of karma
- Mokṣa — liberation
Some traditions also explain them as 9 Tattvas by adding:
- Puṇya — merit
- Pāpa — demerit
Takeaway
So the count is usually 7 Tattvas, and in an expanded explanation, 9 Tattvas.
