    vigour

    D.

    candour

    Correct option is A

    The correct answer is option (A) conqueror

    • In Jainism, the word 'Jain' is derived from the Sanskrit word 'Jina', which means conqueror.
    • A Jina refers to one who has conquered or overcome all human passions, desires, and attachments, achieving liberation (Moksha) and enlightenment.
    • Jains believe that such individuals, known as Tirthankaras, have reached the highest spiritual state by overcoming karma and desires.

    Information Booster :-

    • Jainism places great emphasis on Ahimsa (non-violence), which extends to all living beings, not just humans.
    • Jains believe that every action (thought, word, or deed) generates karma, which binds the soul to the cycle of birth and death (samsara). The goal is to eliminate karma and attain Moksha.
    • Jains believe in the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, where the soul is reborn until it achieves liberation.
