Lord Mahavir had given five main principles for the upliftment of man, which are also known as Panchsheel Siddhanta. Those principles are- Satya, Ahimsa, Asteya, Aparigraha, and Brahmacharya. Truth and non-violence is the first duty of man. On the other hand, asteya means not stealing, one attains spiritual peace and salvation. Aparigraha, that is, by not having attachment to the subject or object, a person abandons worldly attraction and walks continuously on the path of spirituality and a person who follows celibacy easily gets control over his senses.
