    Biography

    [edit]

    Puṣpadanta bhagwan, also known as Suvidhinatha, was the ninth Tirthankara of the present age (Avasarpini).[1] According to Jain belief, they became a siddha and an arihant, a liberated soul that has destroyed all of its karma.[citation needed]

    Puṣpadanta bhagwan was born to King Sugriva and Queen Rama at Kakandi (modern Khukhundoo, Deoria, Uttar Pradesh) to the Ikshvaku dynasty.[1] Their birth date was the fifth day of the Margshrsha Krishna month of the Vikram Samvat. Puṣpadant bhagwan was the ninth Tirthankara who re-established the four-part sangha in the tradition started by Rishabhanatha bhagwan. Pushpadanta prabhu is associated with Alligator emblem, Malli tree, Ajita Yaksha and Mahakali (Dig.) & Sutaraka (Svet.) Yakshi.[2]
