The correct answer is option 4, Trishala. Trishala was the mother of Mahavira, also known as Vardhamana Mahavira or simply Mahavira. Mahavira was the 24th and last Tirthankara, the spiritual leader of Jainism. Trishala was married to King Siddhartha, who was the ruler of a kingdom called Kundagrama in ancient India. According to Jain tradition, Trishala had 14 dreams before the birth of Mahavira, which were interpreted as signs of her son`s extraordinary destiny. These dreams were believed to indicate that Mahavira would become a great spiritual teacher. Trishala is highly respected in Jainism for her role as the mother of Mahavira and for her piety and moral virtues.
