Opening lines

आजसे करीब २५०० वर्ष पहिले वीर प्रभुने जन्म लिया था, उस समय भारतवर्षमें ब्राह्मणोंका प्रभुत्व था, उनकी सर्वत्र गति थी।

The summary

लेखक बताते हैं कि महावीर के समय ब्राह्मण-प्रभुत्व में वेदों के नाम पर हिंसक यज्ञ हो रहे थे। महावीर ने बारह वर्ष तप के बाद 'जियो और जीने दो' का अहिंसा-उपदेश दिया और ईश्वर को ज्ञानपुंज बताया, जो सृष्टि का कर्ता या फलदाता नहीं है। हर आत्मा विकास करके सर्वज्ञ परमात्मा बन सकता है; जैनधर्म सबका धर्म है।
