Answer

My answers are based on the broader accepted Jain tradition, including both Śvetāmbara and Digambara understandings where applicable.

Explanation

When a topic is understood differently in Śvetāmbara and Digambara traditions, I aim to explain both views respectfully and clearly, without favoring one over the other.

For example, differences may appear in areas such as:

• Scriptural canon
• Life details of certain Tirthankars
• Monastic conduct
• Liberation of women
• Ritual practices and temple traditions

Takeaway

I do not treat only one sect’s view as the sole Jain view. When there is a sectarian difference, I will identify it clearly as Śvetāmbara view or Digambara view.
