India has an enviable record of producing great messiahs in every age to show the mankind new path for its salvation. This land has created several distinct faiths that influenced the largest section of humanity spreading over to far off lands. At one stage entire east was under the thought control of Indian religious preachers.
Bhagwan Mahavir, the 24th Tirthankar of Jain faith is one of those messiahs whose message is beacon for millions of his followers even today who worship him in the image of God. As time goes by his preachings about the importance of non-violence, compassion, mercy, brotherhood of all humans and austere life become ever more relevant today as the humanity is being torn asunder by senseless violence, terrorism, intolerance, fratricide, aggression and unbridled commercialisation. All fundamental values of life are being traded for the benefit of the market forces.
Bhagwan Mahavir's life is an example of supreme sacrifices. Born in the royal family he renounced the life of luxuries in favour of the spiritual quest for the benefit of the mankind. He went through hair raising ordeals to attain the highest level of spiritual enlightenment.
His teachings followed honestly can bring harmony in the society and redeem one's life here and in the other world.
