Jignesh was a curious young man living in Mohenjo-Daro, India who questioned the existence of Brahman, the creator god that others in town strictly believed in. When the priest-king Narayan noticed Jignesh ignoring a temple sermon about Brahman, he confronted Jignesh and threatened to kill him unless he admitted Brahman existed. Even facing death, Jignesh refused to lie about his beliefs. The king slashed Jignesh's neck and left him to die in the town's central pool.
