Jainism - is a religion of non violence. It promotes peace of the world. But more importantly, it promotes, peace within the self. It's the path that emphasizes to search for truth. It's logical and asks us to be logical. Nothing should be believed on blindly.
It's about self discipline and training. A path to achieve the true happiness which cannot be found in this material world.
It itself says that no religion should be tagged a the 'best'. And that a person needn't follow a religion to be a good person.
This is the oldest living religion. It's a spiritual path. No god is there who created us and we ourselves are responsible for better or good.

Indian spiritual beliefs are pretty cool in general. It's too bad america was influenced by puritans who thought sex was evil, and work for the sake of work was a virtue.
