One of the earliest physical descriptions of a Tirthankar occurs in an Agam (The scriptures which provide further explanation to the Ang-Agams)

The Tirthankar is extremely tall and his body is perfectly proportioned.

The arrangement of his bones is of a rare type, giving him the extraordinary strength he needs to withstand all kinds of attacks, supernatural, natural and man-made, and to practice the extreme austerities necessary to burn off his karma.

Unlike us, his digestion is always perfect and he never suffers from gas or diarrhea, and like a bird he can digest everything, even stones.

He has perfect teeth and broad shoulders.

His chest is marked with the Srivats sign, which means that the highest knowledge manifests from the heart of the
Tirthankar.

He has a charming line of hair on his belly and his genitals are concealed, like those of a fine stallion.

The soles of his feet are red like a lotus and soft like its leaves.

Every part of the Tirthankara is illuminated with light.
