Rishabji bulave che
Rishabji bulave che translates to: "Rishabji is calling (us)". In Jain dharma, Rishabhanath (Rishabji) is the first Tirthankar, and many devotional lines say that he calls souls to turn away from worldliness and to follow the path of right conduct, renunciation, and truth.
- Arth (meaning) in simple terms: Rishabji is inviting or summoning us to adopt Jain principles—non-violence, truth, austerity, and spiritual discipline.
- Tradition note: This idea is common to both Digambar and Shwetambar traditions; the wording may vary in different bhajans, but the core meaning remains same.
- Spiritual essence: It emphasizes the motivation to purify the soul and progress on the path to kevali-hood (omniscience) through righteous living.
If you want, I can share a short, authentic meaning from a specific Jain stotra or a couple of lines that use this sentiment.
