The present work is substantially based on the findings of my research on the topic: Concept of Sila in Buddhism and Jainism: A Comparative Study. Buddhism and Jainism are considered as the contemporary religions. Both the religions appreciate policy of non-violence. Sila is an essential practice for the salvation in both the religions. Difference between these two religions in this regard is Jainism is extreme in practice while Buddhism insist on the Middle Way. The first chapter of the work introduces the background of the main theme of the research and the second discusses the concept of sila in Buddhism. The concept of sila in Jainism is explained in the third and sila as a pre-condition to enlightenment is the subject matter the fourth chapter. Attention has been paid to the concept of nibbana and kaivalya regarding this. The conclusion arrived at on the basis of foregoing analysis which forms the last chapter. It is my considered opinion that I have made a satisfactory contribution to the field through this book.
