No-one knows exactly how it started. 24 succeding followers (Tirthankaras)started the reliogion, according to myth. Rishabha was the first of the 24, and lived around 7000BC. It is unknown if he really existed. All the 24 followers were part of creating the Jain religion. Mahavira was the last of the 24, and the most powerful, many people started following him. Around 500BC Jainism parted into two separated directions, called Schvetambaras and Digambaras.

Mahavira was a prince that gave up everything to find spiritual meaning. Considered founder of Jainism. Was one of the 24 Tirthankaras. When more people started following him, he became a quite powerful man. Historical evidence has proved that Mahavira did exist.

Allowed Fruit that has fallen down from the tree. They are allowed to use violence in self-defence. Monks are encouraged to do research and become more knowledgeable. Accept many different world views as different parts of the truth. Not allowed No meat No killing any living creatures (including wasps, and bugs!) Preferably not eating fruits or vegetables were you need to kill the plant. The Schvetambaras Jains are prefered to only wear white clothes. No violence

Six blind men were asked to determine what an elephant looked like by feeling different parts of the elephant's body. The blind man who feels a leg says the elephant is like a pillar; the one who feels the tail says the elephant is like a rope; the one who feels the trunk says the elephant is like a tree branch; the one who feels the ear says the elephant is like a hand fan; the one who feels the belly says the elephant is like a wall; and the one who feels the tusk says the elephant is like a solid pipe. A king explains to them: All of you are right. The reason every one of you is telling it differently is because each one of you touched the different part of the elephant. So, actually the elephant has all the features you mentioned. "Elephant and the blind men". Jain Stories. JainWorld.com. Retrieved
