“Jaina Penance” by Champat Rai Jain is an insightful study of the rigorous ascetic practices and self-discipline in Jainism. The book explains the philosophy, purpose, and types of penance undertaken by Jain monks and laity to attain spiritual purity, self-control, and liberation (*moksha*). Champat Rai Jain emphasizes the moral, ethical, and spiritual significance of these practices, illustrating how penance strengthens character, fosters detachment, and cultivates inner peace, highlighting Jainism’s unique approach to self-purification and spiritual growth.

Champat Rai Jain (1867–1942) was a Digambara Jain barrister, scholar, and reformer from Delhi who studied law in England. An influential writer on Jainism and comparative religion, he defended Jain doctrines against colonial Christian critiques and sought to explain them using modern psychology and science. He founded the Jaina Mission in London and the Akhil Bharatvarsiya Digambara Jain Parisad (1923) to unite and reform the community. An orator and activist, he lectured internationally, promoted Digambara identity, and was honored with the title Vidya-Varidhi.
