Achourya information

Achourya (Sanskrit: अचौर्यः, IAST: Acauryaḥ) or Asteya (Sanskrit: अस्तेय; IAST: Asteya) is the Sanskrit term for "non-stealing". It is a virtue in Jainism. The practice of asteya demands that one must not steal, nor have the intent to steal, another's property through action, speech, and thoughts.^[1]^[2]

Asteya is one of five major vows of Hinduism and Jainism.^[3] It is also one of ten forms of temperance (virtuous self-restraint) in Indian philosophy.^[4]
