==Relation to Jainism==
{{Main|Rishabha}}
[[Jainism|Jains]] accept Rishabha as [[Rishabha (Jain tirthankar)|Rishabha]], as the first ''[[Tirthankara]]''.
 
Jain are in conformity with the Vedas in reference to both the Vedas' and Jainism' acceptance of the 2224 Tirthankaras[[Tirthankara]]s.
Of Rishabha, (1stas Tirthankaraa Rishabha)Tirthankara, is written:
::"''But Risabha went on, unperturbed by anything till he became sin-free like a conch that takes no black dot, without obstruction ... which is the epithet of the First World-teacher, may become the destroyer of enemies''" (Rig Veda X.166)
 
::"''{{quote|1=But Risabha went on, unperturbed by anything till he became sin-free like a conch that takes no black dot, without obstruction ... which is the epithet of the First World-teacher, may become the destroyer of enemies''" (|2=[[Rig Veda ]]|3=X.166)}}
It claims that Rishabha was the first human to achieve Moksha in the present age, the release from rebirths. As per Jainism there is no beginning or end for souls. So Rishabha is the first Thirthankara for this cycle which ended with Mahaveer. There were Thirthankaras before and will be after Rishabha.
