Marichi (Sanskrit: मरीचि, romanized: Marīci, lit. 'ray of light') or Mareechi or Marishi is the mind-born son of Brahma, and one of the Saptarishi in Hindu mythology. He is also the father of Kashyapa, and the grandfather of the devas and the asuras.
In Jainism, he is referred to as one of the previous reincarnations of the 24th Tirthankara, Mahavira.[2]
