In Jainism, the path to liberation is guided by the Three Jewels (Tri-ratna): Samyak Darshana (Right Faith or Perception), Samyak Jnana (Right Knowledge), and Samyak Charitra (Right Conduct). The Panch Mahavratas (five great vows – non-violence, truthfulness, non-stealing, celibacy, and non-possession) are integral to Samyak Charitra but are not considered a separate ‘jewel’.
– The Tri-ratna (Three Jewels) of Jainism are Samyak Darshana, Samyak Jnana, and Samyak Charitra.
– These three are essential for liberation (moksha).
– The Panch Mahavratas are part of Right Conduct (Samyak Charitra).
