Digambara Sādhu (also muni, sādhu) is a Sādhu in the Digambar tradition of Jainism, and as such an occupant of the highest limb of the four-fold sangha. They are also called Nirgranth which means "one without any bonds". Digambar Sādhus have 28 primary attributes which includes observance of the five supreme vows of ahimsa (non-injury), truth, non-thieving, celibacy and non-possession. A Digambar Sādhu is allowed to keep only a feather whisk, a water gourd and scripture with him.
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.
Digambara (« vêtu d'espace ») est une des deux grandes subdivisions du jaïnisme, l'autre étant la branche shvetambara (« vêtu de blanc »), les deux expressions signifiant que les moines digambara sont complètement nus, tandis que les moines shvetambara portent un vêtement blanc. Cette division serait apparue en 79 av. J.C. (mais on donne aussi d'autres dates), et elle semble due essentiellement à des divergences sur des points de doctrines, renforcées par des querelles religieuses.
