Who are Pitambar jain
In Jain Dharma there is no recognised group or sect called “Pitambar Jain.”
In Jainism, the two main traditions are:
- Śvetāmbara (Shwetambar) – “white‑clad”, whose sādhus/sādhvīs wear simple white clothes.
- Digambara – “sky‑clad”, whose ideal monk renounces all clothing.
Sometimes people loosely say words like pitambar (yellow‑clad) in a general Indian religious context, but this is not an official Jain term for any sampradāy, panth, or sect.
So:
- If you are asking about a person named “Pitambar Jain”, there could be many individuals with that name, and Jain scriptures or standard Jain history do not point to any famous Ācārya or saint by that exact name.
- If you heard “Pitambar Jain” as a type of Jain, that is a misunderstanding; in Jain Dharma we speak of Śvetāmbara, Digambara and their sub‑traditions, not “Pitambar”.
