Nava Aadinath refers to the nine earliest Tirthankaras in Jainism. They are revered for establishing right faith, right knowledge, and right conduct, and for guiding beings toward liberation.

Names of the nine Aadinaths (in order commonly cited):

• Rishabhanath (Adinath)
• Ajitnath
• Sambhavnath
• Abhinandananath
• Sumatinath
• Padmaprabha
• Suparshvanath
• Chandraprabha
• Suvidhinath

What their stories convey (arth) in simple terms:

• Each Tirthankar appears in a different age to revive the Jain path of ahimsa (non-violence), satya (truth), and other ethical virtues.
• They are said to have attained kevala jnana (omniscience) and liberated souls, teaching Dharma to the world.
• Their lives emphasize steadfast practice, detachment, and compassion, so that followers can imitate their conduct to progress on the spiritual path.

Important note on tradition:

• There are small differences in details between Digambar and Shwetambar traditions about dates, parentage, and some events. The core message—how the Tirthankaras embody perfect conduct and guide beings toward liberation—remains the same.

If you want, I can share a very brief per-Tirthankar summary (birth, key teachings, and liberation) in a simple, easy-to-remember format.
