The tirthankar of next chovisi, which bhav are they in now?
Answer
In Jain tradition, the future Tirthankars of the next Chovisi are not all in the same bhav now. They are believed to be in different gatis/bhavs, depending on the individual soul.Explanation
A future Tirthankar is not “waiting” in one fixed place. Each soul has its own present journey in samsara. So:- some may be in devalok bhav,
- some may be in human bhav,
- and some may be in other gatis, depending on their karmas.
What is fixed in tradition is the Tirthankar-nam-gotra they have bound, not that all of them are currently in one identical bhav.
