Jain monks

Jain monks are dedicated spiritual practitioners who follow the teachings of Jainism, an ancient Indian religion emphasizing non-violence (ahimsa), truth, and ascetic discipline. They renounce worldly possessions and lead simple lives to attain spiritual purity and liberation (moksha). Monks often wear minimal clothing or are naked to avoid harm to living beings, and they practice strict self-control, meditation, and compassion. Their disciplined lifestyle serves as an example for lay followers and aims to reduce harm to all living creatures, fostering inner peace and spiritual growth.
