Home›Hindu, Jain & Yogic Teachers›Gender›MaleBrowse ByMaleThis page groups historical religious figures by gender, letting a visitor separate, for example, the women prophets and mystics a tradition recorded from the men. Wikipedia defines gender as "the range of social, psychological, cultural, and behavioral aspects of being a man (or boy), woman (or girl), or portraying a third gender." Many traditions recorded far fewer women in positions of religious authority, so this grouping also shows that imbalance directly.FactsMaleSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsDirectoryCategoryWell-attestedHistorical Figures 1MaleFilter Results24 entriesTraditionAllHinduism (18)Jainism (4)EraAll-520 to -460 (1)-607 to -507 (1)-700 to -501 (1)1089 to 1172 (1)1100 to 1200 (1)1414 to 1481 (1)1532 to 1623 (1)1855 to 1936 (1)1865 to 1951 (1)1869 to 1948 (1)600 to 655 (1)7th to 5th century BCE (start of the stated range, scholars differ on the century) (1)800 to 850 (1)850 to 950 (1)875 to 925 (1)900 to 950 (1)950 to 1016 (1)Place of ActivityAllBangladesh (1)Bengal (1)Gujarat (1)India (6)Kashmir (3)Kolkata (1)Nepal (1)Rajasthan (1)Sindh (1)Tamil Nadu (2)HistoricityAllHistorically attested (19)Historicity debated (4)Veneration StatusAllHistorically Significant but Not Venerated (4)Officially Recognized or Venerated (9)Popularly or Locally Venerated (2)Manner Of DeathAllAssassinated (1)NationalityAllIndia (2)India (6)Pallava Dynasty (1)Revered InAllHinduism (16)Jainism (4)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 24AbhinavaguptaMaleApparMaleBhadrabahuMaleGorakhnathMaleHemachandraMaleKapilaMaleKrishnadasa KavirajaMaleKshemarajaMaleMatsyendranathMaleMohandas K.
