The names of his mother 41 1 and father were Bhaddila and Dhammil respectively and they lived in i 5 the Videh area. The period of his birth is estimated to be around 80 5 B.V.N. (Before Vir Nirvana) (607 B.C.). Extremely talented Sudharma
received the traditional Vedic knowledge of fourteen subjects (Veda, 4
Vedanga, Mimamsa etc.) from his scholarly father and established si 5 himself as a front line Vedic scholar of his time. Sudharma got 9
initiated with his five hundred disciples during the first post Kewal- 9 jnana discourse of Bhagavan Mahavir on Vaishakh Shukla 11, 500 5 9 B.V. (Before the beginning of the Vikram era) At that time his age was in
fifty years. He got to spend three years with Bhagavan Mahavir and 5 4 during this period, based on the Tripadi (tripod; the popular name 9 given to the essence of Bhagavan Mahavir's discourse), he authored i
the twelve Angas which became the principal canons of the Jain 5 tradition. Arya Sudharma had also taken over the control of the
lineage of disciples of all the other Ganadhars by the time of
Bhagavan Mahavir's nirvana. After remaining the Head of the Order 4 Si for twelve years he attained omniscience in 12 A.N.M. (After the fi 4 Nirvana of Mahavir) (457 B.V., 514 B.C.). He got nirvana at the age of 4 #1 approximately one hundred years on Vaibharagiri hills near Rajagriha after observing a month long fast in 20 A.N.M. (449 B.V., 506 B.C.).
Arya Jambu Swami-The successor of Sudharma Swami as the si Head of the Order was Jambu Swami. He was born in a wealthy merchant family of Rajagriha in 16 B.V.N. (543 B.C.). The names of
his father and mother were merchant Rishabhdatt and Dharini Devi i respectively. When she conceived, mother Dharini had seen five 4
divine dreams - 1. smokeless fire, 2. a lotus-pond, 3. farms with ripe 4 41 harvest, 4. a white elephant with four tusks, and 5. a jambu fruit of 5
best quality. In due course, when she gave birth to a son he was so named Jambu Kumar. He became detached after listening to a discourse of Sudharma Swami when he was sixteen years old. When he approached his parents to seek permission for getting initiated they tried to dissuade him but he remained firm on his resolve. As a last resort his mother requested him that if he fulfilled just one of her wishes, she will also get initiated with him. Jambu agreed with a
condition that once her wish was fulfilled she would not create 55 hurdles in his path.
