The Great Preacher
Every religion has a reason for its being, so the question comes, why was jainism created. That is, Vardhamana Mahavira was a kshatriya prince but he gave up his life of luxury, at the age of 30, became an ascetic, and left his home. |
Some say that it was because during he lived during the later vedic period, in india, where there were a lot of sacrifices, superstitions, meaningless rituals and many evil customs and he thought there was more to life than following a religion so hard to follow. So maybe that's why he left home in the search of truth. |
