    Every religion has its own ifs adn buts and speciality. Jainism was founded by Rishabha and there were 24 preachers called Tirthankaras. The most popular and the last of these is Vardhman Mahavira who was born in 599 BC and died In 522 BC. He renounced the world at age 30 after his parents death. He preached the same message as his predecessor and added celibacy to the list.

    Jainism is another pure form of religion where people follow very strict ethics and sentiments during their lifetime. There are almost 4 million people in the world who follow Jainism as their religion. We should preserve this religion as India is the only country where Jainism is followed besides it being the place of origin of Jainism.
