In Jain tradition, Bhagwan Neminath (Arishtanemi), the 22nd Tirthankar, lived in a very remote era, so we do not give BCE/CE years. We remember his janma and moksha by lunar dates (tithis) and places.

What the traditions say

• Common to both: Birthplace Sauripura (Saurashtra region) to King Samudravijaya and Queen Shivadevi; moksha at Mount Girnar (Urjayant Parvat), Gujarat. ( wisdomlib.org, en.wikipedia.org)
• Shwetambar tradition:

- Janma: Shravan Shukla 5. ( wisdomlib.org) - Moksha: commonly observed as Ashadh Shukla 8 on Mount Girnar. (Some local observances note Ashadh Shukla 7.) ( jaintirth.in, insightjainism.vercel.app)

• Digambar tradition:

- Janma: Vaishakh Shukla 13. ( jainqq.org) - Moksha: Ashadh Krishna 8 at Urjayant peak, Mount Girnar. ( jainqq.org)

Note

• His lifespan is described as 1,000 years in the texts; exact calendar years are not given. ( jainqq.org)
