Answer:
Mahavir was Kshatriya prince
Explanation:
- Tirthankara Mahavira was born into the Kshatriya royal family of King Siddhartha of the Ikshvak Dynasty and Queen Trishara of the Lichchavi Republic.
- The Ikshvak dynasty was founded by the first Tirthankara Rishabanatha.
- According to Jains, Mahavira was founded in 599 BC to be born.
- He was born into a Kshatriya (warrior caste) family and grew up in Kshatriya Kundagrama, a suburb of Vaishali (now Basar, Bihar).
- This is the birthplace of both Jainism and Buddhism.
- Lord Mahavira belonged to the Junatrica tribe.
- His father was the head of the Jnatrika clan, an indigenous oligarchic tribe.
- Mahavira did not believe in God. He considered it less important than Gina (Conqueror). He believed that humans create their own destinies.
- He is sometimes erroneously referred to as the 'founder of Jainism'.
- Mahavira is the youngest Tirthankara in this world (and the last in this era).
- Mahavira abandoned his worldly life at the age of thirty and became an ascetic.
- For the next twelve years he led a life of penance and meditation.
- He was believed to have conquered his desires, hence he came to be known as 'Jina' or Conqueror, thus his followers became known as Jinas or Jains.
