About this audiobook

Mahavira, the 24th Tirthankara of Jainism, is revered as a spiritual teacher who revitalized the ancient Jain faith with his message of nonviolence, truth, and self-discipline. Born in 599 BCE in present-day Bihar, India, Mahavira renounced his princely life to pursue enlightenment. This biography traces his journey of intense meditation, asceticism, and teachings that emphasized ahimsa (nonviolence) and respect for all living beings. His profound influence laid the foundation for Jain philosophy, which continues to inspire ethical living and compassion worldwide. This book explores his life, his spiritual legacy, and his enduring impact on Jainism and humanity’s pursuit of peace and harmony.
