Jainism

The flag of Jainism is a pentacolor (i.e. five stripes) of red, yellow, white, green, and blue, with its' symbol in orange in the center.
==Description==
===Colors===
These five colors represent the "Pañca-Parameṣṭhi" and the five vows, small as well as great:
* White - represents the arihants, souls who have conquered all passions (anger, attachments, aversion) and have attained omniscience and eternal bliss through self-realization. It also denotes peace or ahimsa (nonviolence).
* Red - represents the siddha, souls that have attained salvation and truth. It also denotes truthfulness (satya).
* Yellow - represents the acharya the Masters of Adepts. The color also stands for non-stealing (achaurya).
* Green - represents the upadhyaya (adepts), those who teach scriptures to monks. It also signifies chastity (brahmacharya). 
* Dark blue or black - represents the sadhus and sadhvis or monks and nuns. It also signifies non-possession.
=== Swastika ===
The swastika in the center of the flag represents the four states of existence of soul. The four stages may be:
* Heaven-beings or deities
* Human beings
* Animal/birds/insects/plants
* Hell beings
It shows that the soul can embody these forms, owing to a level of karma, which may escalate it to higher-level forms (such as heavenly beings) or lower-level forms (such as lesser animals or hell beings).
The purpose of the soul is to liberate itself from these four stages and be arihants or Siddha eventually.
=== Three Dots ===
The three dots above the swastika represent the three levels of Jainism:
* Right Faith
* Right Knowledge
* Right Conduct
