Both systems had parallels in their essence and framework. But for their Hindu and Buddhist connotations there wasn't much disagreement between the 2. Yet relatively speaking Buddhist training was much more mass friendly and also less discriminatory. Jain Viharas likewise provided training to the masses on religious philosophy and tradition. The apparent defects of the early method of training had been their religious foundation, much less scientific common they served the religious reason for the era. Although there was cases of educated females, generally the culture in particular was prejudiced towards the education of theirs. The primary emphasis within this training is on Buddhist methods and the Vedic of training as they existed in ancient India.
