The Jain Declaration on Nature
The Declaration marked the official entry of Jainism as the eight faith into the WWF Network on Conservation and Religion. Drafted by over 30 Jain scholars worldwide, it has been translated into several languages.
1994 That Which Is: Tattvartha Sutra
The English translation by Nathmal Tatia, of the Tattvartha Sutra was published by the International Sacred Literature Trust as part of a series of holy writings of various faiths. Widely acknowledged as the earliest most authoritative and comprehensive summary of Jain faith and recognised by all sects of Jains. Both the Jain Declaration on Nature and That Which IS: Tattvartha Sutra were launched by HRH Prince Phillip, patron of the International Sacred Literature Trust.
Discover Jainism and Jain Tales
Both books are for children between the ages of five to eleven. They are illustrated with colour photographs and pictures, and use simple language and ideas to help children understand the Jain faith and its practices.
Older children can read by themselves while younger children will enjoy listening to the books being read aloud. Young readers and listeners will get the most out of the experience if they discuss the books with a teacher or parent and visit the Learn Jainism website. (www.learnjainism.org)
