Jain Symbols

Jainism, one of the ancient dharmic religions originating from India, emphasizes a strict path of non-violence towards all living beings.

Jain Symbol: Ahimsa Hand

The Ahimsa Hand, a significant symbol in Jainism, features a hand with a wheel on the palm. This emblem represents the Jain vow of Ahimsa, which means non-violence.

The word "Ahimsa" is inscribed in the center. The wheel, known as the dharmachakra, signifies the goal of halting the cycle of reincarnation by seeking and living in accordance with the truth.
