Jainism ke anusar, shadi (vivah) ke samay kevalgyan (absolute knowledge) prapt karne ka prasang Bahubali ke jeevan mein milta hai. Bahubali, jo ki Rishabhdev (Adinath) ke putra the, unhone apne bhai Bharat ke saath yuddh ke baad rajyatyag kiya tha. Bahubali ne tapashcharya (spiritual practices) shuru ki, lekin unhe abhimaan ke karan kevalgyan prapt nahi ho raha tha.

Kuch Jain kathayein batati hain ki Bahubali kevalgyan prapt karne hi wale the, tabhi unki behen Brahmi aur Sundari unke paas aayi aur unhone Bahubali ko satya ka bodh karaya. Uske baad Bahubali ne apne shesh ahankaar ko tyag diya aur fir unhe kevalgyan prapt hua.

Yah prasang shadi se sambandhit nahi hai, lekin kuch lok kathayein (non-canonical stories) kahte hain ki Bahubali ko apni behan ki upasthiti mein, unke vivek jagran ke baad kevalgyan prapt hua. Parantu, Jain agamaon ya pramukh granthon mein shadi ke samay ya shadi karte hue kisi ko kevalgyan prapt hone ka varnan nahi milta.

Isliye, Jain dharm ke pramukh sahitya ke anusar, kisi bhi Tirthankar ya Mahapurush ko shadi karte samay kevalgyan prapt hone ka ullekh nahi hai.
