Jain dharma ke anusar, manav jeevan ki paanch indriyan hain (paanch indriyan):

• shrotra (kaan) — sunne ki indriya
• jihva (jihbha) — chakhne ki indriya
• chakshu (aankh) — dekhne ki indriya
• tvak (tvachha) — chhune/ sparsh ki indriya
• ghran (naak) — sugandh mehsoos karne ki indriya

(Ye paanch pratyek prani ke samvedan ke mool adhaar hain; Jain darshan me inke alawa mann/ buddhi jaise antarik indriyaon ki vishesh mahattva bhi hota hai, lekin mool roop se paanch indriyan hi kehte hain.)
