Jain texts state that Mahavira was born in 599 BC into a royal family of Kshatriyas, in Bihar. His childhood name was 'Vardhamana'.
His parents were King Siddartha of Kundgraam & Queen Trishala. Hailing from a royal family, he had all the luxuries of life at his disposal.

He grew up to be a very brave boy & once brought a fierce serpent under control. This earned him the name “Mahavira”.
Luxuries of life gave no satisfaction to Mahavira. So at the age of 30 he embarked on a journey of self-discovery in order to seek the spiritual truth.
