Naminātha

According to the supplied sources, Naminātha was born in the Ikshvaku dynasty to King Vijaya (also rendered in some sources as Emperor Vijay Raja) and Queen Vipra of Mithila. He is enumerated as the 21st Tīrthaṅkara of the current Avsarpini half-cycle. One narrative variant in the provided material records a past-life identity as King Siddhārtha of Kauśāmbī; another account (marked unverified in one source) says that while he was in his mother's womb an aura compelled invading kings to surrender to his father. These hagiographic details appear unevenly across the supplied sources.

The supplied sources do not provide a specific physical or iconographic description unique to Naminātha. They identify him by his status as a Tīrthaṅkara and siddha but do not record attendant symbols, bodily description, or standard iconographic attributes for this particular figure in the materials given.

Within the doctrinal framing of the sources, Naminātha attained kevala jñāna (perfect knowledge) and became a siddha who had 'demolished all of his karma.' As a Tīrthaṅkara he fulfills the role of a spiritual exemplar and 'ford-maker' who establishes the path (tīrtha) by which souls may cross saṃsāra. A narrative element in one source (noted as unverified) attributes a prenatial aura capable of affecting human rulers, but this detail is unevenly attested in the provided materials.
