    Current 24 tirthankar

    6 months ago 84

    In Jainism, in every half‑cycle of time there are 24 Tirthankaras. In the current descending half‑cycle of time (avasarpini), the 24 Tirthankaras are:

    1. श्री ऋषभदेव / आदिनाथ – Rishabhdev (Adinath)
    2. अजितनाथ – Ajitnath
    3. संभवनाथ – Sambhavnath
    4. अभिनंदननाथ – Abhinandannath
    5. सुमतिनाथ – Sumatinath
    6. पद्मप्रभु – Padmaprabhu
    7. सुपार्श्वनाथ – Suparshvanath
    8. चन्द्रप्रभु – Chandraprabhu
    9. पुष्पदन्त / सुपार्श्व (कुछ परम्पराओं में शीतलनाथ से भिन्न) – Suvidhinath (Pushpadant)
    10. शीतलनाथ – Shitalnath
    11. श्रीनाथ / श्रेयांसनाथ – Shreyansnath
    12. वासुपूज्य स्वामी – Vasupujya
    13. विमलनाथ – Vimalnath
    14. अनंतनाथ – Anantnath
    15. धर्मनाथ – Dharmanath
    16. शान्तिनाथ – Shantinath
    17. कुञ्चन / कुन्तुनाथ – Kunthunath
    18. आरहनाथ / अरणाथ – Aranath
    19. मल्लिनाथ – Mallinath
    20. मुनिसुव्रतनाथ – Munisuvratanath
    21. नामिनाथ – Naminath
    22. नेमिनाथ / अरिष्टनेमि – Neminath (Arishthanemi)
    23. पार्श्वनाथ – Parshvanath
    24. महावीर स्वामी – Mahavira (Vardhaman)

    • Both Digambar and Shwetambar traditions accept these same 24 names and order. • There are some differences in details (e.g., about Mallinath’s gender, exact life‑stories, some iconographic details), but the list of 24 Tirthankaras of the current avasarpini is the same in both.

    If by “current 24 Tirthankar” you meant specifically the 24th, then that is Bhagwan Mahavir Swami, the last Tirthankar of this time‑cycle.
