- The Acaranga Sutra (or Acharanga) is the first of the eleven Angas, part of the agamas (religious texts)which were compiled based on the teachings of Lord Mahavira. The Acaranga Sutra discusses the conduct of a Jain monk. In antiquity, Acaranga was the first text that was studied by the Jain monks. The existing text of the Acaranga Sutra which is used by the Svetambara sect of Jainism was recompiled and edited by KshamaShraman Devardhigani, who headed the council held at Valabhi 980 years after Lord Mahavir's Nirvana. The Digambaras do not recognize the existing text, and regard the original text as having been lost in its original form. The Digambara Mulachara text includes the Digambara tradition derived from Acharanga.
