Jain dharm ke anusar, "Panch Pandavo" ka ullekh mukhya roop se Mahabharat se sambandhit hai, jo Hindu dharm ka granth hai. Lekin Jain parampara mein bhi Pandavon ki alag kathayein milti hain.

Jain kathayon ke anusar, Pandavo ko vairagya (sansarik mohon se mukti) kuch vishesh ghatnayon ke sunne ya dekhne par hua tha. Mukhya roop se, jab unhone sansar ke anitya (asthir) hone, dukh, moh aur bandhan ko samjha, tab unke mann mein vairagya utpann hua. Kuch Jain granthon ke anusar, Pandavo ne yudh aur rajya ki asaarata (futility of war and kingdom) dekhi, apne rishtey-daaron ki mrityu aur dukh dekhe, tab unhone sansarik sukhon ko tyaag kar keval gyaan aur moksh ki or agrasar hone ka sankalp liya.

Vishesh roop se, kuch Jain kathayon mein yeh bhi kaha gaya hai ki Pandavo ne arthatyag (renunciation) kiya jab unhone kisi Jain muni ya arihant ka updesh suna, ya kisi smruti janak ghatna ka anubhav kiya. Is prakar, Pandavo ko vairagya mukhya roop se sansar ke dukh aur anitya hone, yudh ki asaarata aur shashvat sukh ki khoj se hua tha.

Agar aap kisi vishesh Jain granth ya prasang ke baare mein puchhna chahte hain, kripya uska naam bataye, main aur vistrit jankari prastut kar sakta hoon.
