    Did mahavira said goyam sambhavai je jeeva tulyam punam ayum ca bandhanti te gati-kshetta-kale uvauppajjanti in Bhagwati sutra Copy

    Answer

    Yes, the idea you wrote is in the style of a Bhagavati Sutra teaching: Bhagavati Sutra is a dialogue where Bhagavan Mahavira answers Gautama, and it includes discussions on karma bondage, life-span, and the conditions of birth. The line you wrote seems to be a Romanized/retold form of that teaching, but I could not verify that exact wording as a standard printed quote from the text I checked. ( wisdomlib.org)

    Explanation

    • “Goyam” refers to Gautama Swami.
    • “uvauppajjanti” means “take birth / are born.”
    • The passage you quoted is about jīvas, karmic bondage, and rebirth conditions.
    • In Bhagavati Sutra, such teachings appear in the early sections, including the chapter parts on karma bondage and life-span. ( wisdomlib.org)

    Spiritual Understanding

    The teaching reflects a core Jain principle: rebirth does not happen randomly. It happens according to karma, especially bondage related to life-span and the state of the soul. This is why Jain Dharma emphasizes right conduct, self-restraint, and karmic purification. ( wisdomlib.org)

    Takeaway

    So, in essence: yes, this teaching belongs to the Bhagavati Sutra tradition, but the exact Romanized line you wrote may be a paraphrase or a variant transcription rather than a fixed commonly quoted verse. If you want, I can help format it into clean Prakrit-style Roman script and give the simple meaning.
