                  Uttarādhyayana-sūtra

                  An ancient Jain text outlining the rules of monastic conduct, said to be Mahāvīra’s final sermon. These 36 lectures provide rules for ascetics but also discuss various topics, such as karma and the substances in the universe, and recount the tale of Nemi’s renunciation.
