Meena in Jainism

In Jainism, "Meena" refers to a revered goddess associated with the divine and spiritual qualities. She symbolizes purity, compassion, and the pursuit of spiritual awakening. Meena is often venerated in temples and religious practices as a representation of the soul's potential for liberation (moksha). Her presence reminds practitioners of the importance of non-violence, truth, and self-discipline—all core principles of Jainism. Through worship of Meena, Jains seek to cultivate inner virtues and progress on their path toward spiritual enlightenment while respecting the interconnectedness of all living beings.
