Mallinath
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mallinath was the nineteenth Jain Tirthankar of the present age (Avasarpini). According to Jain beliefs, Mallinath became a siddha - a liberated soul which has destroyed all of its karma. According to members of the Shvetambar sect, she was female, making her the only female to become a Tirthankar during the present age. Digambaras believe that Mallinath was male.
Mallinath was born to King Kumbha Raja and Queen Prabhavati Rani at Mithila in the Ikshvaku clan. Her birth date was the 5th day of the Shravan Sukla month of the Hindu calendar.
