Jain philosophy
Jain philosophy or Jaina philosophy refers to the ancient Indian philosophical system of the Jain religion. It comprises all the philosophical investigations and systems of inquiry that developed among the early branches of Jainism in ancient India following the parinirvāṇa of Mahāvīra (5th century BCE). One of the main features of Jain philosophy is its dualistic metaphysics, which holds that there are two distinct categories of existence: the living, conscious, or sentient beings (jīva) and the non-living or material entities (ajīva).
Indian logic
The development of Indian logic dates back to the anviksiki of Medhatithi Gautama (c. 6th century BCE); the Sanskrit grammar rules of Pāṇini (c. 5th century BCE); the Vaisheshika school's analysis of atomism (c. 6th century BCE to 2nd century BCE); the analysis of inference by Gotama (c. 6th century BC to 2nd century CE), founder of the Nyaya school of Hindu philosophy; and the tetralemma of Nagarjuna (c. 2nd century CE). Indian logic stands as one of the three original traditions of logic, alongside the Greek and the Chinese logic.
Jain literature
Jain literature (Sanskrit: जैन साहित्य) refers to the literature of the Jain religion. It is a vast and ancient literary tradition, which was initially transmitted orally. The oldest surviving material is contained in the canonical Jain Agamas, which are written in Ardhamagadhi, a Prakrit (Middle-Indo Aryan) language. Various commentaries were written on these canonical texts by later Jain monks. Later works were also written in other languages, like Sanskrit and Maharashtri Prakrit.
Anekantavada
Anekāntavāda (en sanskrit IAST ; devanāgarī : अनेकान्तवाद) est l'une des plus importantes et fondamentales doctrines du jaïnisme. Elle provient du Tattvartha Sutra. Sa traduction pourrait être : « réalité relative » ; son équivalent, dans la philosophie grecque, est le scepticisme. Elle se réfère à deux doctrines : les points de vue multiples : le nayavada ; la relativité des objets et des êtres dans le temps et l'espace : le syadvada. LAnekāntavāda s'inscrit dans la création d'un système philosophique plusieurs siècles avant notre ère.
Philosophie indienne
La philosophie indienne est un ensemble de systèmes philosophiques originaires de l'Inde. On définit classiquement deux sortes de philosophies indiennes selon qu'elles reconnaissent ou non l'autorité du Veda : les philosophies āstika (आस्तिक en devanāgarī) sont celles qui reconnaissent l'autorité du Veda et les Upanishads qui en sont la conclusion. Il s'agit des six écoles orthodoxes que sont la Mīmāṃsā, le Nyāya, le Sāṃkhya, le Vaiśeṣika, le Vedānta et le Yoga, constituant les branches philosophiques de l'hindouisme.
