Description: An illustration indicating why Jains are vegetarians. Due to the practice of the value of Ahinsa (non-violence), Jains attempt to avoid inflicting of pain in their diet practices. Increase in the number of senses may contribute to increase in sensory acuity, and thus Jains prefer eating foods made from creations that have a lesser number of sense organs (such as plant-based foods).
