Bhagwan Aadinath, the first Tirthankar of the Jain's did not start Jainism as such because Jainism is not a Religion but a way of life. The first Tirthankar set the initial standards as to how human beings were to conduct themselves in day to day life. He was the first to preach the relationship between a human being and the Atman (the soul within). He emphasized the fact that it was Atman (the soul within) which was the true essence of every being and the body of every being was only a garb for the Atman (the soul within). He was the first to realize God in his age and hence was known as the first Tirthankar. He was not to have another body as his Atman within was going to be liberated forever.

During the period of Bhagwan Aadinath, Humanity was not developed nor was science. It was difficult to preach to a group of people leave apart a whole community or a town. There were no followers and hence no Religion.
