Shanti Sutra (peace prayer) in Jainism is considered a guide to inner calm and ethical living. Its benefits, as taught in Jain tradition, include:

• Calming the mind: Helps reduce agitation, anger, and restlessness, aiding steady judgment.
• Purification of the self: Supports shedding anger, greed, pride, and attachment to ego (kashayas), moving the soul toward purity.
• Cultivation of ahimsa (non-violence): Encourages compassion, non-harming thoughts, and considerate actions toward all beings.
• Forgiveness and equanimity: Fosters forgiveness, patience, and a balanced reaction to praise or blame, success or failure.
• Better discrimination: Promotes right understanding and right conduct, guiding choices that are gentle and truthful.
• Practical harmony in daily life: Reduces conflict with others, improves relationships, and supports peaceful coexistence.
• Spiritual progress: Aligns with the path toward liberation by strengthening virtues that lead to dispassion and detachment from material outcomes.
• Differing viewpoints acknowledged: The exact emphasis of Shanti Sutra can vary between Digambar and Shwetambar traditions, but the core aim—peace of mind and purification of the soul—remains central.
