Jain ~ Faith, Knowledge, Conduct
  |
The emancipation of soul is a blissful state, free from karma and samsara, the cycle of birth and death. Such a liberated soul is called siddha or paramatman and considered supreme soul or God. Jains believe that with right faith, knowledge, and conduct all souls can attain this state. Thus Jainism is also known as the “path to liberation”.
The triangle— internal, basic, and supportive— represents faith. The circle, a symbol of life, also representative of an open eye or mind, represents knowledge. The heart, an emblem of love, here represents effort or conduct.
