ज्ञानवान् मनीषी महावीर को संख्या और गणित के प्रति रुचि थी तथा उनके प्रवचनों में इन विषयों का असाधारण वैशिष्ट्य झलकता है। यद्यपि बहुत सारे प्रसंगों में यह सिद्ध करना कठिन है कि उनमें से कितना निरूपण उनका अपना है तथा कितना दूसरों का है, फिर भी कहीं-कहीं वे स्वयं स्पष्ट रूप से अपने आपको अमुक सिद्धान्त के निरूपक के रूप में घोषित करते हैं । वे स्वयं कहते हैं- “एवं खलु, गोयमा, मए सत्त सेडीओ पण्णत्ताओ।" (विआहपण्णत्ती ९५४ - बी ) - इस प्रकार मैंने सात श्रेणियों निरूपण किया है। इन सबके सन्दर्भ में परमाणुओं और आकाश-प्रदेशों के जघन्य एवं उत्कृष्ट अंकों का विवेचन किया है, जो हमें गणनात्मक चिन्तन तक पहुँचाता है। इन सबमें हमें एक परिवारगत रुचि दृष्टिगोचर हो रही है । जहाँ इसके साथ इसको प्रयोग में लाने की रुचि भी जुड़ती है, वहाँ सम्भवतः हम महावीर के मौलिक विचार से साक्षात्कार करते हैं ।" "

डॉ. जे. डेल्यू ने लिखा है- "निष्कर्ष रूप में मैं कहना चाहूँगा कि 'अन्यतीर्थिक आगम-पाठों' में अनेक विविधतापूर्ण विषयों की जो चर्चा की गई है, वे महावीर के व्यक्तित्व को एक चिन्तक एवं एक प्रणेता 1. The Doctrines of the Jainas, pp. 40-41-Even individual traits borrowed from nature have been incorporated into the total conception by Mahavira, the systematizer, as is shown by many passages of the Viy. Thus his explanation for a hot spring he must have visited near Rayagiha (94), his theory of the wind (110), and the life-community. of fire and wind (105). The fact that the movement of a flying object slows down (Viy. 176-b, Jiv. 374-b) was probably concluded by Mahavira from the effect of gravitation. Nor should we omit the wind Kavvadaya (Viy. 499-b) arising between the heart and the liver and causing within a galloping horse the sound of khu-khu. Above all, however the most versatile thinker we know of ancient India, had a liking for figures and arithmatic, that characterizes his speeches most extraordinarily. In most cases we are not able to prove which considerations are his own and which are of others, but he calls himself the author of a theory of the 7 possible lines (evam Khalu, Goyama, mae satta sedhio pannattao) (Viy. 954-b). In referring to them the minimum and maximum numbers of the atoms and space units are being discussed, and this leads us up to the calculative reflections. In them a certain family likeness seems to become apparent, and where it goes together with a special liking for applying it we are probably confronted with an original idea of Mahavira's.
2. Dr. J. Deleu's article on "Lord Mahavira and the Anyatirthikas" in "Mahavira and His Teachings". p. 193-"In conclusion I would like to state, that the great diversity of topics discussed in the anyatirthika texts is illustrative both of Mahavira's personality as a thinker and a teacher, and of that wonderful time of creative ferment in religion and philosophy that was his. It would seem that Mahavira, more than anyone around him, even more than the Buddha, was inspired by the spiritual unrest and eagerness of his day. Speaking of the Buddha, and probably comparing him with the Jina, Frauwallner, in his History of Indian Philosophy, expressed the opinion that his (the Buddha's) contribution to the enlargement of the range of philosophical ideas in his time was a rather small one'. A severe verdict indeed, which, however is soundly based on the Buddha's well-known stern refusal to consider a great many question that occupied his contemporaries. Because of his systematic approach to all these question, Mahavira has, I think, rightly been called 'the most versatile thinker we know of in ancient India."
