What is the concept of Tirthankara in Jainism?
In Jainism, a Tirthankara is a spiritual teacher who preaches dharma—the righteous path that leads to liberation. Tirthankaras are disciplined beings who have conquered bodily attachments and desires, achieving Kevala Jnana, or perfect knowledge. They serve as spiritual exemplars, and their teachings form the foundation of the Jain community.
