The recent verdict by Madhya Pradesh High Court in the Kamal Maula-Bhojshala case claims that Jainism and Hinduism aren't distinct religions. This assertion is grossly ahistorical, and utterly colonial
ъг╜ , The IVC script is still undeciphered, so we can't confirm the exact religion. However, these images do show striking visual similarities with later Jain art and practice.
Many scholars view the meditative posture, horned headdress, and animal companionship as early evidence of a Tirthankara-like figure or proto-Jain ascetic practice emphasizing non-violence and meditation.
Note the long hair (sometimes shown in early Jain art), perfectly straight arms, and complete nudity. This is the single most commonly cited visual parallel in тАЬIVCтАУJainismтАЭ discussions because several IVC terracotta and stone figurines show very similar rigid, arms-down standing meditative poses.
In Jainism, the bull is the official emblem (l─Б├▒chana) of the first Tirthankara, с╣Ъс╣гabhan─Бtha (Adinatha). Jain tradition holds that Rishabha was a king who renounced the world long before the Vedic period. The extreme prevalence of the bull motif in IVC is therefore seen by scholars as strong symbolic evidence.
Only 30тАУ40K Tamil Digambar Jains exist a minority within a minority. ItтАЩs a proud moment that a hero like Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman hails from this remarkable community. Salute to his courage and legacy!
