According to Osho, Mahavira’s character today would not be a replica of his historical conduct; it would surface uniquely in each person as the spontaneous shadow of inner vision. Vision is timeless; when it awakens, it becomes knowing, and knowing becomes conduct appropriate to one’s time and nature. Therefore any outer form—ascetic or modern—is secondary; authenticity flows from within.
Don’t copy Mahavira’s actions; wake up inside and your own right actions for today will follow naturally.
