ATMASIDDHI SHASTRA Hardcover

Atmasiddhi Shastra is a profound and seminal spiritual treatise composed in Gujarati verse by the 19th-century Jain mystic-philosopher, Shrimad Rajchandra, who is revered as the spiritual guide of Mahatma Gandhi. This concise yet comprehensive work, often translated as "The Self-Realization Treatise," consists of 142 verses and offers a succinct exposition of the core principles of Jain philosophy and the path to spiritual liberation (moksha). Through a dialogue format between the seeker and the enlightened one, it addresses fundamental questions about the nature of the soul, the cycle of birth and death, the importance of a true guru, and the necessity of right belief, knowledge, and conduct for self-realization, making it a foundational text for understanding Jainism and a deeply contemplative work for any spiritual seeker.
