The doubt regarding Nirvana being resolved, the last of the eleven brothers, Prabhas swami, got initiated as the last Ganadhara of Lord Mahavira. Along with him his 300 disciples too became the Lord's disciples. Being imparted the knowledge of 'Tripadi', Prabhas Swami worked out the Dvadashangi, like other Ganadharas.

As a result of "The Ganadharavada", the last Tirthankara Lord Mahavira, acquired a total of four thousand four hundred and eleven disciples in a single day.
We offer our humble salutations to Lord Mahavira and the eleven great Ganadharas.
