In Jainism, the term Ganadhara is used to refer the chief disciple of a Tirthankara. In samavasarana, the Tīrthankara sat on a throne without touching it (about two inches above it). Around, the Tīrthankara sits the Ganadharas. According to Digambara tradition, only a disciple of exceptional brilliance and accomplishment (riddhi) is able to fully assimilate, without doubt, delusion, or misapprehension, the anekanta teachings of a Tirthankara. The presence of such a disciple is mandatory in the samavasarana before Tirthankara delivers his sermons. Ganadhara interpret and mediate to other people the divine sound (divyadhwani) which the Jains claim emanates from Tirthankara's body when he preaches.

  • Un Ganadhara est dans le jaïnisme un chef des disciples mendiants d'un Maître éveillé, un Tirthankara. Par exemple Mahâvîra, le vingt-quatrième Tirthankara, avait un ganadhara pour chacun de ses groupes d'ascètes qui étaient environ 14000. Ce poste a été créé pour des raisons pratiques cependant des ganadharas ont aussi écrits des textes jaïns dont certains sont importants comme les Angas. Des ganadharas avaient pour habitude de mettre par écrit les propos religieux de leurs maîtres. Tous les Tithankaras ont eu au moins un ganadhara. (fr)

The monastic sangha of Jainism is divided into a number of orders or troupes called ganas, each headed by a ganadhara. In 20th century, statues depicting Tīrthankaras and Ganadharas were unearthed in Mayurbhanj district of Odisha. (en)
