Vedic Literature{{main|Rishabhanatha}}The Vedas mention the name Rishabha.{{sfn|Prioreschi|1996|p=205}} According to Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, a professor of comparative religions and philosophy at Oxford who later became the second President of India, there is evidence to show that Rishabhdeva was being worshipped by the first century BCE. The Yajurveda {{refn|group=note|a non-Jain, Hindu text}} mentions the name of three Tirthankaras – Rishabha, Ajitanatha and Arishtanemi, states Radhakrishnan, and "the Bhāgavata Purāṇa endorses the view that Rishabha was the founder of Jainism".{{sfn|Radhakrishnan|1923|p=287}} .[9]{{refn|group=note|For example: ऋषभं मा समानानां सपत्नानां विषासहिम् । हन्तारं शत्रूणां कृधि विराजं गोपतिं गवाम् ॥१॥ – Rigveda 10.166.1[10] Other examples of Rishabha appearing in the Vedic literature include verses 6.16.47 of Rigveda, 9.4.14–15 of Atharvaveda, 3.7.5.13 and 4.7.10.1 of Taittiriya Brahmana, etc.{{sfn|Bloomfield|1906|p=293}}}} Elsewhere it is an epithet for the Hindu god Shiva (Rudra). {{quote|1=0 Rudra-like Divinity ! do thou produce amongst us, of high descent, a Great God, like Rishabha Deva, by becoming Arhan, which is the epithet of the first World Teacher; let Him become the destroyer of the enemies !|2=Rig Veda|3=X.12.166}}{{sfn|Dalal|2010|p=88}} According to the Bhagavata Purana text, Rishabha is an avatar of Vishnu. According to D. Dennis Hudson, this interpretation of Rishabha as an Avatar might have developed during the same period when the details and stories of Jina Rishabha were constructed.{{sfn|Hudson|2008|pp=19–22}}India was named "Bhāratavarsha" or "Bhārata" or "Bharata-bhumi" after his son.{{sfn|Champat Rai Jain|1929|p=159}}{{sfn|Umakant P. Shah|1987|p=72}} In the Hindu text, Skanda Purana (chapter 37) it is stated that "Rishabhanatha was the son of Nabhiraja, and Rishabha had a son named Bharata, and after the name of this Bharata, this country is known as Bharata-varsha."{{sfn|Sangave|2001|p=106}} The Vayu Puranas says he who conquers the whole of Bharata-varsha is celebrated as a samrāt (Vayu Purana 45, 86) however in some puranas, the term 'Bharat' refers to the whole Earth as Emperor Bharata is said to have ruled the whole Earth.{{cn|date=January 2018}} According to the Puranas, India is known as Bharatavarsha after his eldest son Bharata Chakravartin. This has been mentioned in Vishnu Purana (2,1,31), Vayu Purana,(33,52), Linga Purana(1,47,23), Brahmanda Purana (14,5,62), Agni Purana ( 107,11–12), Skanda Purana, Khanda (37,57) and Markandeya Purana (50,41) it is clearly stated that this country is known as Bharata Varsha.[11]
Jain TirthankaraSome scholars state that this avatar is same as the first Tirthankara of Jainism.[16] See also
