He is said to have meditated motionless for one year in a standing posture (kayotsarga) and that during this time, climbing plants grew around his legs. After his year of meditation, Bahubali is said to have attained omniscience (Kevala Gyana). Bahubali other names were Kammateswara Gommateshwara because of the Gommateshwara statue dedicated to him. The statue was built by the Ganga dynasty minister and commander Chavundaraya; it is a {{convert|57|ft|m|adj=on}} monolith (statue carved from a single piece of rock) situated above a hill in Shravanabelagola in the Hassan district, Karnataka state, India. It was built circa 981 A.D. and is one of the largest free-standing statues in the world. LegendsThe Ādi purāṇa, a 9th-century Sanskrit poem, deals with the ten lives of the first tirthankara, Rishabhanatha and his two sons Bharata and Bahubali. It was composed by Jinasena, a Digambara monk.{{sfn|Granoff|1993|p=208}} Family lifeAccording to Jain texts, Bahubali was born to Rishabhanatha and Sunanda during the Ikshvaku dynasty in Ayodhya.{{sfn|Sangave|1981|p=66}}{{sfn|Zimmer|1953|p=212}}{{sfn|Champat Rai Jain|1929|p=xv}}{{sfn|Dundas|2002|p=120}} He is said to have excelled in studying medicine, archery, floriculture, and the knowledge of precious gems. Bahubali had a son named Somakirti (also known as Mahabala).{{sfn|Champat Rai Jain|1929|p=106}} When Rishabhanatha decided to become a monk, he distributed his kingdom among his 100 sons. Bharata was gifted the kingdom of Vinita (Ayodhya) and Bahubali got the kingdom of Asmaka from South India, having Podanapur as its capital.{{sfn|Sangave|1981|p=67}} After winning six divisions of earth in all directions (digvijaya), Bharata proceeded to his capital Ayodhyapuri with a huge army and divine chakra-ratna—spinning, disk-like super weapon with serrated edges.{{sfn|Sangave|1981|p=67}} But the chakra-ratna stopped on its own at the entrance of Ayodhyapuri, signalling to the emperor that his 99 brothers have yet not submitted to his authority.{{sfn|Vijay K. Jain|2013|p=x}} Bharata's 98 brothers became Jain monks' and submitted their kingdoms to him. Bahubali was endowed with the final and superior body of extraordinary sturdiness and strength (vajra-ṛṣabhanārācasaṃhanana) like Bharata.{{sfn|Vijay K. Jain|2013|p=xi}} He hurled open defiance at the chakravartin and challenged him to a fight.{{sfn|Champat Rai Jain|1929|p=143}} The ministers on both sides gave the following argument to prevent war; "The brothers themselves, cannot be killed by any means; they are in their last incarnations in transmigration, and possess bodies which no weapon may mortally wound in warfare! Let them fight out the issue by themselves in other ways."{{sfn|Champat Rai Jain|1929|p=144}} It was then decided that to settle the dispute, three kinds of contests between Bharata and Bahubali would be held. These were eye-fight (staring at each other), water-fight (jala-yuddha), and wrestling (malla-yuddha). Bahubali won all the three contests over his elder brother, Bharata.{{sfn|Sangave|1981|p=67}}{{sfn|Champat Rai Jain|1929|p=105}} RenunciationAfter the fight, Bahubali was filled with disgust at the world and developed a desire for renunciation. Bahubali abandoned his clothes and kingdom to become a Digambara monk and began meditating with great resolve to attain omniscience (Kevala Gyana).{{sfn|Champat Rai Jain|1929|p=145}} He is said to have meditated motionless in a standing posture (kayotsarga) for a year, during which time climbing plants grew around his legs.{{sfn|Champat Rai Jain|1929|p=145–146}} However, he was adamant and continued his practice unmindful of the vines, ants, and dust that enveloped his body. According to Jain text Ādi purāṇa, on the last day of Bahubali's one year long fast, Bharata came in all humility to Bahubali and worshiped him with veneration and respect. A painful regret that he had been the cause of his elder brother's humiliation had been disturbing Bahubali's meditation; this was dispersed when Bharata worshipped him.[1] Bahubali was then able to destroy the four kinds of inimical karmas, including the knowledge obscuring karma, and he attained omniscience (kevala gyana). He was now revered as an omniscient being (Kevali).{{sfn|Champat Rai Jain|1929|p=145–146}} Bahubali finally attained liberation (moksha) and became a pure, liberated soul (siddha).{{sfn|Champat Rai Jain|1929|p=146}} He is said to be the first Digambara monk to have attained moksha in the present half-cycle of time.
