A Symbol of Renunciation and Ideal Kingship

Introduction: Rishabhdev, son of King Nabhi and Queen Marudevi, was both an ideal king and a great ascetic.

Story: As king, he taught his people the rules of living and the importance of right action. After handing the kingdom to his hundred sons, he took up renunciation and immersed himself in penance. According to the Bhagavata tradition, the country got the name “Bharatvarsha” from his eldest son Bharata.

Message: After fulfilling one’s duties, renunciation brings true peace.
