The twenty fourth Tirthankar Charam Tirthadhipati Shraman Bhagwan Shri Mahavir Swami was born in 599 B.C. that is, on the 13th night of the bright fortnight of Chaitra month of the 542nd year before Vikram Samvat. Right from the childhood he was patient, brave, adventurous and compassionate. Even after being very powerful, he was highly forgiving. “Assure every living being fearlessness. Behave in a friendly and impartial manner with everybody”-before preaching this principle, he implemented it himself. Bhagwan Mahavir has been started from the previous 26 births of him and continued till the current birth. These events show that this highest distinction is achievable only after prolonged efforts. The basis of this story is the Trishashthishalaka Purush Charitra by Kalikaal Sarvagya Acharya Shri Hemchandra Surishwarji.
