[amp_mcq option1=”Tara” option2=”Marudevi” option3=”Vijaya” option4=”Sumangla” correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n
The correct answer is: A. Tara<\/p>\n
Sumtinath Tirthankara was born from the womb of Tara, the wife of King Shanti. Tara was a beautiful and virtuous woman who was devoted to her husband and children. She was also a devout Jain and followed the teachings of the Tirthankaras.<\/p>\n
Tara was pregnant with Sumtinath for 12 years. During this time, she was visited by many sages and saints who predicted that her son would become a great Tirthankara. Tara gave birth to Sumtinath in a cave in the Himalayas.<\/p>\n
Sumtinath was a perfect child who was free from all attachments and desires. He renounced the world at the age of 30 and became a monk. He spent the next 60 years wandering the countryside, preaching the Jain faith and teaching others how to achieve liberation.<\/p>\n
Sumtinath attained moksha (liberation) at the age of 90. He is the 17th Tirthankara of the Jain faith.<\/p>\n
The other options are incorrect because they are not the names of the mothers of Sumtinath Tirthankara.<\/p>\n
Option B: Marudevi is the mother of Parshvanatha Tirthankara.<\/p>\n
Option C: Vijaya is the mother of Mahavira Tirthankara.<\/p>\n
Option D: Sumangla is the mother of Neminatha Tirthankara.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
