This needs way more sources

Just looking through this, there is a lot of unsourced content, also I am not sure how much of it is Jain. For example, I looked for the following quote:

"When we meditate we expand, spreading our wings like a bird, trying to enter consciously into Infinity, Eternity and Immortality, welcoming them into our aspiring consciousness. We see, feel and grow into the entire universe of Light-Delight."

And all I could find was that it seems to be by Sri Chinmoy (not a Jain!).

Anyways, I am going to remove that and see if I can bring some more sources in. Javierfv1212 18:04, 25 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I took a closer look at the list of Sources and looks like nearly 50% of the sources section links to various pages of one paper/ phD thesis. There are many other sources used in this article; however, is there any concern in regards to WP:N with a lot of content pulling from a phD thesis? Just curious what others think. Thanks!Whitestar12 (talk) 20:08, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
