Jain educational techniques are designed to assist the practitioner to remain apart from clinging and hatred thereby liberating from karmic bondages through the Ratnatraya: right perception, right knowledge and right conduct.

Great emphasis is placed on the control of internal thoughts, as they influence the behavior, actions and goals. It prescribes many mindful reflections or contemplations to help in this process.
