What year jainism founded?

Answer 1

jainism was founded by first thirthankar adinath (rishabdev) times immemorial. its very wrong to intrept that it was mahaveera. the fact is mahaveer was last thirthakar (24th) who carried over the mantle till the next thirthankara will incarnate on the earth.

Answer 2

According to Jains Jainism is an eternal religion, it has no origin. However, for this time frame (kaal) Lord Adinath is accounted as the first Tirthankar of Jains, he who practiced Jainism, for the first time (in present time frame), in the form which is followed till today during the very beginning of tritiya kaal or almost 50,000 years ago.

Presently, historians do believe that Jainism originated almost 2000 years ago and was propagated by 23rd tirthankar Parshwnath, but no exact date is given about its origin. Mahavira, the last Jain Tirthankar was born in 6 A.D. and this is also accepted by some people as start date of Jainism. But the research continues in this field to find at least an approximate start date of Jainism and to prove Jain claims of Jainism being an eternal religion.

To avoid such time variations, it is better if we practice a religion which still has best history and evidence and following the good habits of any one is good and abiding the bad habits of our own people is the need for this hour.

Answer 4

Jains believe that Jainism is an eternal dharma(loosely translated as religion): it has no beginning no end. However, for current time frame (kaal:division of time as per Jain philosophy), Lord Adinath is accounted as the first Tirthankar (one who is enlightened and attains moksha), he who practiced Jainism, for the first time (in present time frame) about 50,000 years ago (the beinning of tritiya kaal) in the form which is followed till today.

As far as historical evidence is concerned, scholars have agreed that about 2000 years ago 23rd tirthankar Parshwnathlived and propagated Jain philosophy. It is believed that his parents were follower of an already-existing ancient form of Jainism. This ancient form of Jainism might be as old as the Indus valley Civilisation and existed parallel to the Vedic tradition (Vedic philosophy Vs Sraman philosophy). Mahavira, the last Jain Tirthankar was born in 6 A.D. and some regard him as the founder of Jainism. It was during his time that Jainism became widely popular. No doubt, he is the most popular figure in Jain tradition.

These dharmic traditions of India are so old that it is very difficult to make a guess about their origin. For most of the time, these philosophies were passed down from generation to the other through oral traditions only, making it even harder to predict about their origin. Although no exact date can be given, but it is certain that Jainism has been there for about at least 2000 years.
