Jainism

I see some problems with spirit and matter. How does someone connect to the spirit realm. What about matter its everything we see. So explain miracles and how they would work in a jainism setting? Connection to the spirit is something that cannot be done unless we are in spirit. Well that is what i believe.

What do you know of jainism? I don't think we have any Jains here currently
 
Many translations of Jain texts, also books about Jainism. This 2013 title, Living Jainism by Mardia & Rankin is a good one.

From the Foreword by David Frawley:

Jainism is not a belief system, but rather a way of right relationship
with the living universe that we are inherently part of. It is not
based upon a theology of a Creator that we must all bow down to,
but upon recognition of the sacred nature of all life. Jainism is a
spiritual science or way of higher knowledge and should be treated
as such, if we want to really understand and appreciate the great
gifts of insight that it can bestow upon us.
Jainism is a religion of life and honoring life. For Jainism, life is
perhaps more important and real than any concept of divinity. How
we relate to life is our true religion, which implies how we act in
our daily lives, not simply a seeking of salvation or going to a
heavenly world after death. Jainism begins with the unity of life and
asks us to discover the implications of that unity, and reorient our
behavior accordingly.
