The sect of Jainism that came first is the Digambara sect. It emerged around the 2nd century BCE, distinguishing itself by its belief that ascetic monks should renounce all clothing and possessions to attain liberation. The other major sect, Svetambara, developed later, around the 1st century CE, and differs primarily in its views on monastic practices and the interpretation of certain scriptures.
