Mahavira (
Mahāvīra), also known as
Vardhamana (
Vardhamāna), was an Indian religious reformer and spiritual leader who is considered to be the 24th and final
Tirthankara (Supreme Preacher) of this
age in
Jainism. Although the dates and most historical details of his life are uncertain and varies by
sect, historians generally consider that he lived during the 6th or early 5th century BCE,
[14][2] reviving and reforming a proto-Jain community which had possibly been founded by
Pārśvanātha,
[15][16] and Jains consider Mahavira to be his successor.
[17] The historicity of Mahavira is well-established and not in dispute among scholars.

According to traditional legends and
hagiographies, Mahavira was born in the early 6th century BCE to a ruling
kshatriya family of the
Nāya tribe in what is now
Bihar in
India. According to traditional Jain sources like the
Ācārāṅga Sūtra, the Nāyas were followers of
Parshvanatha.
[19][20] Mahavira abandoned all worldly possessions at the age of about 30 and left home in pursuit of spiritual awakening, becoming an
ascetic. Mahavira practiced intense meditation and severe austerities for twelve and a half years, after which he attained
Kevala Jnana (omniscience). He preached for 30 years and attained
moksha (liberation) in the 6th century BCE, although the year varies by
sect. Many historians
[1][2][3] now believe his lifetime was later, by as much as one century, than was stated in tradition.
