4 Pillars of JAINISM Given by BHAGWAN MAHAVIR in JIN SUTRA can change your life 360 degree

Greetings from Hitesh! I thank you all readers for their kind words of appreciation for my last post -How WARREN BUFFET became Most Successful Investor by NOT TRYING TO BECOME? This is one of the sure shot ways to learn how big guys operate when they are investing BILLIONS. Today we are taking another great learning from JAINISM. If you apply that in life, you can achieve your FINANCIAL NIRVANA very fast.

Years back I had studied JIN SUTRA. This time I am again studying the same and I have come across this beautiful TRUTH. I am happy to share with you all.

According to BHAGWAN MAHAVIR, there are 4 steps to NIRVANA. They are DARSHAN (SEEING), GAYAN (KNOWELDGE), CHARITRA(CHARACTER) and TAP(PENANCE).

In NORMAL PRACTICE – it is preached that if you DO TAP, you will build up CHARACTER. Once CHARACTER is built, you will have KNOWLEDGE and once you get KNOWLEDGE you will SEE TRUTH. This is 100% wrong and misleading.

99% of the success coaches around the world uses this formula. I call it DOING leads to BEING formula. They are making tons of money with this misleading theory. You can’t become AMITABH BHACHHAN by following (however sincerely) his way of working.

I have often talked about BEING LEADS TO DOING from my experiences. BHAGWAN MAHAVIR had said the same thing 2500 years ago.

Now let us see what he says.

DARSHAN: -

In India, DHARSHAN does not mean PHILOSOPHY. It means SEEING with an ATTITUDE of witness. If you see it as if you are witnessing, your SEEING is perfect. To see it as WINTESS does not require any ART or special skill or special TAP. All you need is AWARENESS. We all have experience of seeing with AWARNESS when something unexpected wrong happens with us.

BUDDHA got his awareness by SEEING old man / sick man and dead man. Since he was seeing with full awareness – he left his family immediately and went in search of TRUTH.

When investing, you need to SEE that PRICE is a SLAVE of BUSINESS PERFORMANCE. This is the only TRUTH and rest all is theory and perception. BUFFET is saying the same thing.

KNOWLEDGE: -

When you SEE with AWARNESS, the SEER in you gets some experience. That EXPERIENCE is KNOWLDEGE. All your information/perception and beliefs are useless without experience with awareness.

When you have your OWN EXPERIENCE, you don’t need to rely on anybody.

When you see business performance with the price performance – you yourself will be convinced with the link between them. Then you don’t worry for ECONOMY/POLITICS or WORLD EVENTS.

CHARACTER: -

When you have SEEN it with awareness, when you have experienced it, both these leads to changes in your behaviour 360 degree. This change in your behaviour leads to building your CHARACTER.

The character built this way will not go till you die. The current method of building character is …..

“Watch your thought, it will become your word.

What your word, it will become your action.

What your action, it will become your habit.

What your habits, it will become your character.”

In this way, your character is nothing but extension of your habits. Habit is something which you do automatically without being aware. The very essence of MAHAVIR’s teaching is doing with AWARENESS. So, inner change is the KEY and not the outer show.

Now last step is TAP.

TAP: -

Most common meaning of Tap as understood is troubling oneself by doing some FAST or doing something which is harmful to the body.

Mahavir’s meaning of TAP is suffering all the BAD events which comes as a resutls of your PAST KARMAS in personal life / business life or relationship with patience and without any complain. Those who can do this is doing the TAP by default.

Mahavir says those who follow above 4 steps will achieve NIRVANA.

How to apply above in INVESTING?

Most analysts are ARMCHAIR analysts and they do not visit the company plant or company management. When you SEE the plant and their offices with awareness, you get the idea of the company’s real size. By just reading the value of ASSETS in BALANCE SHEET, you will not get that idea.

So, SEEING is the first. SEE plant / offices / their sales depots / distributors and retailers. Try to see the MAXIMUM things about the company without reading about the financial details. This SEEING will give you some KNOWLEDGE about the company and this will not be affected by SALES FIGURES or NET PROFIT MARGINS.

With the above KNOWLEDGE, now go into financial details and other technical aspects related to the company. This way you will form your inner opinion or character of the company.

Now, you invest in this company. If you have taken the first three steps properly, you will not get affected by the fall in prices of that company. In fact, you will feel delighted to add those shares.

Eg. Rakesh added DHFL shares after 50% fall also.

By following this you will achieve your financial nirvana.
