1 Granth Chhota Niyam Chandani
Chhota Niyam Chandani (also spelled Chhota Niyam Chandni) is a small Jain granth that presents concise rules (niyam) for daily conduct. It is commonly used by Jain lay followers (shrāvaks/shrāvikas) as an easy guide to ethical behavior and discipline in everyday life.
- What it contains: a compact set of practical guidelines to live a Jain life with right conduct, self-control, and simplicity.
- Audience: mainly householders who want clear, short instructions for daily practice.
- Traditions: there can be small variations in wording or emphasis between Digambar and Śvētāmbara traditions, but the core idea—brief, actionable rules for conduct—remains common to both.
