Which text is considered the holy scripture of Jainism?

The Agamas are considered the holy scripture of Jainism, serving as the foundational texts that encapsulate the teachings of Mahavira, the 24th Tirthankara. These texts contain a wide range of topics, including philosophy, ethics, rituals, and practices central to Jain beliefs. They guide practitioners in understanding the concepts of non-violence (ahimsa), truth, and asceticism, which are pivotal to the Jain way of life.

In contrast, the Vedas are sacred texts in Hinduism, providing the oldest body of religious literature for that tradition. The Torah is foundational to Judaism, containing the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, while the Bhagavad Gita is a sacred narrative in Hinduism that is part of the Mahabharata, focusing on philosophy, duty, and righteousness. Each of these texts holds significant meaning within its own religious framework but does not pertain to Jainism.
