In Jainism, the Gandhars were the chief disciples of the Tirthankaras. Every Tirthankara had a group of such principal disciples. However, the most commonly discussed Gandhars are those of Lord Mahavira, the 24th Tirthankara.

Each Tirthankara had 11 primary Gandhars (also called Ganadharas), but their individual names vary for each Tirthankara and are not generally listed in the canonical literature for all Tirthankaras. The names of Gandhars are well-known only for Lord Mahavira.

Gandhars of Lord Mahavira (24th Tirthankara):

1. Gautam Swami (Indrabhuti Gautam)
2. Agnibhuti
3. Vayubhuti
4. Vyakta
5. Sudharma Swami
6. Mandikata
7. Mauryaputra
8. Akampita
9. Acalabhraata
10. Metarya
11. Prabhasa

For Other Tirthankaras:

The Jain scriptures generally do not provide a Gandhar list for each Tirthankara. The tradition holds that each Tirthankara had 11 Gandhars, but their names (except for Mahavira’s) are not commonly preserved or documented.

Summary:

• The detailed list of Gandhars is available only for Lord Mahavira.
• Each Tirthankara had 11 Gandhars, but their names for other Tirthankaras are not generally listed in Jain texts.
