KALPASUTRA ⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️↙️↙️

The Kalpa Sūtra is a Jain text containing the biographies of the Jain Tirthankaras, notably Parshvanatha and Mahavira Traditionally ascribed to Bhadrabahu, which would place it in the 4th century

it was probably put to writing only after 980 or 993 years after the Nirvana(Moksha) of Mahavira.

Within the six sections of the Jain literary corpus belonging to the Svetambara school, it is classed as one of the Cheda Sūtras. This Sutra contains detailed life histories and, from the mid-15th century, was frequently illustrated with miniature painting. The oldest surviving copies are written on paper in western India in the 14th century.

Kalpasutra is ascribed to Bhadrabahu, traditionally said to have composed it some 150 years after the Nirvāṇa (death) of Mahavira. It was compiled probably during the reign of Dhruvasena, 980 or 993 years after the Nirvana of Mahavira.
