  1. Diksha Saini

    Enjoyed learning about the Tirthankaras. Some parts felt a bit repetitive. Overall, a good read for beginners.

  2. Ankit Shubham

    A must-read for anyone interested in Indian religions. It offers a balanced and insightful perspective.

  3. Chhayank Bokolia

    A decent introduction, but not as comprehensive as I hoped. Good for a quick overview.

  4. Vishal Teotia

    A well-written overview, though I felt it could have delved deeper into the philosophical aspects.

  5. Rohit Sharma

    Informative but dry. Needed more anecdotes to bring the subject to life.

  6. Kaustubh Vilas Mahajan

    An informative and thought-provoking read. It challenged my preconceived notions about Jainism.

  7. Muskan Singh

    The exploration of anekanta was insightful. However, the chapter on santhara felt a bit rushed and could have been more nuanced.

  8. Suryansh Mishra

    I loved the way the author explained the concept of restraint. Very inspiring.

  9. Dharvi Singhal

    A fascinating introduction to Jainism! Regunathan writes with clarity and passion. I wish there was more on contemporary Jain practices.

  10. Reet Singh

    I appreciated the historical context provided. Some of the terminology was a bit confusing at first.

  11. Priya Sahani

    While informative, it felt a little academic at times. Could have been more engaging.

  12. Naimish Pravinbhai Patoliya

    Regunathan’s writing style is engaging and accessible. A great starting point for understanding Jainism.

  13. Sonal Singh

    Excellent book! Clearly explains complex ideas in a simple way. Highly recommend for beginners.

  14. Pranav Anant Joshi

    This book truly opened my eyes to the beauty and complexity of Jainism. Highly recommended!

  15. Khushi Kaushik

    The book is a bit short, but it covers a lot of ground. I would have liked more personal stories of Jains today.
