Mulnayak:
Nearly 114 cms. high, black-colored idol of Bhagawan Uvasaggahar
Parshvanath in the Padmansana posture.
Tirth:
It is in the Nagapura village on the bank of the Shivnath river.
Historicity:
This very ancient tirth has come to light only recently. This idol was got
installed by King Pradeshi who was awakened by Keshiswami. It was
installed nearly thirty-sven years ago. This is what historians believe.
This idol installed by Dharanendra and Padmavati and workshipped by gods
and goddesses in devlok, goes on gaining prominence and grandeur day by
day. The head of the idol of Gods looks beautiful with seven hoods on it
and the coiled Nagraj is seen beneath this idol in the cross-legged
posture. A shravak was getting a well dug. When it was dug to the depth 44
feet, it got filled up with milk. When the well was dug deeper in order to
find out the secret of this miracle, entwined with living snakes, this
idol of God was found. The non-Jain devotees and Bhuvansinh, the owner of
the farm, handed over this idol to the Jain leaders. After this splendid
temple was built, this idol was installed in it. When the foundation stone
of this temple was being laid, a stream of milk shot forth in the presence
of Sadhus. Many such miracles happen even today. Mental, physical and
wordly troubles of devotees are removed by adoring, worshiping and praying
to this idol. That is the reason why this impressive idol of God is called
Uvasaggahar Parshvanath.
Other
Temples:
There are no other temples here.
Works of art and Sculpture:
Looking beautiful with the seven hoods, this wonderful and miraculous idol
impresses the devotees and inspires them to have faith in God. It seems
that Nagraj is coiled behind the idol. The scene is very vivid. This idol
remained unknown for a long time and then this tirth came into light.
Religious devotees are urnestly impatient to go to this tirth and worship
God. A replica of the Shetrunjaya tirth, Shri Uvasuggahar Stotra Mandir,
Shri Siddhachakra Mandir etc. are installed here in this splendid temple.
This tirth is also famous for Manibhadravir’s miracles.
