The present work is substantially based on the findings of my research on the topic: Concept of Sīla in Buddhism and Jainism: A Comparative Study. Buddhism and Jainism are considered as the contemporary religions. Both the religions appreciate policy of non-violence. Sīla is an essential practice for the salvation in both the religions. Difference between these two religions in this regard is Jainism is extreme in practice while Buddhism insist on the Middle Way. The first chapter of the work introduces the background of the main theme of the research and the second discusses the concept of sīla in Buddhism. The concept of sīla in Jainism is explained in the third and sīla as a pre-condition to enlightenment is the subject matter the fourth chapter. Attention has been paid to the concept of nibbāna and kaivalya regarding this. The conclusion arrived at on the basis of foregoing analysis which forms the last chapter. It is my considered opinion that I have made a satisfactory contribution to the field through this book.
