Pandit Todarmal (1719–1766) was an eminent Indian Jain scholar and writer.[1] He led the creation of terapanthi community among the Digambara Jains by rejecting the authority of bhattarakas.[2] He wrote moksha-marga-prakashaka.[3]

According to Pandit Bakhtawar Shah, Todarmal was arrested on a false charge of removing an idol and was executed by the order of a Jaipur ruler who was under the influence of some staunch anti-Jain individuals in the court, who had become jealous of his influence.[4]

His son, Gumaniram, formed a sub-sect named Gumanapantha in 1770s and named it shuddha terapantha amana (pure terapantha tradition) by making the rules stricter.[2]
