These Type temple hangings and their symbols are an important part of Jain worship.
For Jains the spiritual goal is to obtain moksha, a state of freedom and purity. Jains believe that all living organisms, however small, have a soul, and that negative actions, such as greed or violence, cause the soul to be trapped in a cycle of rebirth. a key concept of Jainism is Ahimsa, which means ‘non-injury’. Jains are strictly vegetarian and avoid activities or professions that may lead to harming living beings (20230127_143739).
