Hiravijaya
Hiravijaya ji (1526–1595 C.E) (also known as Muni Hiravijayji and Hiravijay Suri ) was the supreme pontiff of Tapa Gachcha order of Jain Svetambara tradition. He is famous for propounding the Jain philosophy to Emperor Akbar and turning him towards vegetarianism.
==Early life and monkhood==
Hiravijaya was born in a Jain Oswal family in Palanpur in Gujarat in 1527.〔Roy, A. K. (1984) p. 140〕 His parents had died when he was still an infant, and he was brought up by his two elder sisters. He became the disciple of a Jain monk, Vijayadana Suri in 1540 at the age of 13, and a new name Hira Harsh was given to him. He was taken to Devagiri – a center of Sanskrit learning in those days, for further education. He successively won the title of ''Pandit'' in 1550, ''Upadhyaya'' in 1552 and ''Suri'' in 1553.〔Roy, A. K. (1984) p. 140〕 This last title he won at Sirohi. Hence-forth he was known as Hiravijaya Suri. In 1556 when his guru died, the Svetambara Tapa Gaccha community of Gujarat selected him as their Acharya (head of congregation). At that time there was a large community of around 2,000 students studying under him.〔Mehta, Shirin (1992) p. 55〕
