Prakirnaka Sutra

The Prakirnaka Sutras (also known simply as the Prakirnaka) are a series of Jain religious texts.

Only ten of the twenty Prakirnaka are recognized by the Śvetāmbara Jains.

[1] These Sutras deal with the "Great Virtues", the Mahavratas, and death.

They also name hymns and prayers.

The texts were likely written between the 6th and 13th century A.D.[2] Contents of the Prakirnaka Sutras:[3] * Name used by Nalini Balbir[5]
