Ratnakaranda śrāvakācāra

Ratnakaranda śrāvakācāra is a Jain text composed by Aacharya Samantbhadra Swamy (second century CE), an acharya of the Digambara sect of Jainism.

Aacharya Samantbhadra Swamy was originally from Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu.

A śrāvakācāra discusses the conduct of a Śrāvaka or Jain lay practitioner.

Hiralal Shastri mentions 29 such texts from 2nd century CE to modern times.

[1] First verse of the Ratnakaranda śrāvakācāra is dedicated to Vardhamāna Mahāvīra, the 24th Tirthankara:[2] Tr.- I bow to Śri Vardhamāna Mahāvīra who has washed off [all] the impurities of karmic filth from His Soul, [and] In Whose Perception scintillate the three Worlds and the infinity of Space, as in a mirror !
