Jainism is one of the oldest religions of the world. Like Hinduism, Jainism is a religion, a philosophy, and a way of life practised by millions of followers in India and around the world. According to Jainism, marriages are seen as an important social contract and not seen as a religious practice.
Mahavira, the last Thirthankara (Thirthankara refers to 24 enlightened beings), was practical in his approach to guiding his followers. He did not demand blind acceptance of the faith and placed emphasis on understanding before acceptance of the Jain way of life. Hence, finding partners for marriage (while expected to be limited to one's immediate family) has now broadened to include different Jain sects (Svetambara, Digambara, Sthanakvasi, Terapanthi) and social backgrounds.
However, most traditional Jains prefer to include detailed descriptions of the immediate family members in the marriage biodata. This is more of a cultural practice dictated by geography as opposed to a religious requirement.
Our Jain biodata for marriage template
We hired an artist to create a Jain marriage biodata template. Our template provides a unique format that's based on the cultural identity and symbolism associated with Jainism.
Jainism preaches non-violence, kindness and good actions and pure thoughts. Our Jain biodata format is in the form of an ancient scroll with a sacred script written on it.
The lotus icons are used to anchor key points in this biodata and symbolise patience and purity of mind, body and soul.
The text is printed in pink colour to evoke feelings of warmth and comfort. Title text in gold shows grandeur and prosperity.
The symbol of Mahavira captures the essence of Jainism which is disciplined nonviolence.
