Even if Aryan invasion happened around 1500 BCE and Dravidians were the real inhabitants of India ; Jainism can't be their religion. Jainism is a north indian religion ; its' works are in Indo European languages (like sanskrit and Prakrit) and used Brahmi script(Indo European). Rishabha is mentioned in Bhagavata purana also. Jain temples in Rajasthan houses Hindu Gods like Surya Narayana. They believe in Hindu (Vedic gods like Indra)
AdiNatha sounds sanskrit to me. The word Adi is sanskrit and NOT tamil as thought by Tamilians. Adi means first/beginning in sanskrit. And Natha means Master. Today Jains are mostly in Rajasthan , Gujarat, Karnataka and Kerala(immigrants from Karnataka). there are no jains in Tamil Nadu. Also even if there were "Dravida Gods" they cannot be Jain gods. Also Sinhalese of Srilanka is a Indo-European language like sanskrit and NOT a Dravidian language like Tamil. Also a prince from north india established a Kingdom in Lanka(King Vijaya) as early as 500 BCE(Mahavamsa). Then why cant' the so called Aryans settle in Tamil Nadu by 500 BCE if they can settle in Lanka??? SO this proves this Dravida waad is all bogus aimed in dividing Hindus and esp separate Tamil people from National mainstream.
