Jainism
Definition of Jainism as it relates to Religions, Pantheism, Wicca
Jainism is an ancient religion from India that emphasizes non-violence, compassion, and self-control. It shares some similarities with Wicca, as both religions value the interconnectedness of all living beings and the importance of leading an ethical life. However, Jainism has its own unique beliefs and practices, such as the veneration of spiritual masters known as Tirthankaras and a strict code of asceticism. In this hierarchy, Jainism can be understood as a distinct spiritual tradition that falls under the broader category of Wicca, which itself is a subset of Pantheism and ultimately Religions as a whole.
