Adinath (Rishabhanath) ka janm Ayodhyā shehar mein hua tha. Woh Ikshvākū vansh ke rājā Nabhi aur nārī Marrudevī ke putr the. (Śvetāmbara aur Digambar sampradis dono mein is baat par main dhyan diya jata hai ki Adinath ka janm Ayodhyā mein hota hai.)

Note: Jain granthon mein is vishay ki thodi si vividh jankari milti hai, lekin mukhya dharna yahi hai ki Adinath ka janm Ayodhyā mein mana jata hai.
