Seth Motisha (also called Motichand Seth) was a very famous Jain shravak (lay follower) known for his great compassion, especially towards animals.

A simple child‑friendly version:

• Motisha was a very rich Jain businessman.
• In his city, many stray dogs and other animals were being killed cruelly.
• Seeing this, his heart filled with daya (compassion).
• He went to the authorities and strongly requested them to stop killing the dogs.
• He also helped start places where animals could live safely and get food and water (like gaushalas / animal shelters).
• He also built Jain temples and did a lot of charity for people and animals.

Why Jains remember him:

• As an ideal example of ahimsa (non‑violence) in day‑to‑day life.
• He did not think, “They are just dogs.” He saw every jiv (soul) as precious.
• Children are often told his story so they learn:

- Never to hurt animals - To feed hungry beings if they can - To be brave and speak up against cruelty
