Foot Prints of The Lord - |

The presence
of very ancient shrine on whose threshold
(DEHRI) stood the pious footprints of
Parshwa-Prabhu was mutilated by the impact
of time. It was rusty maroon coloured and
dilapidated. As the luck would have it, an
eminent man of leters, journalist and
scholar Shri Rawalmalji jain 'Mani' traced
them out and got them renovated with the
help of devotee friends. He was destined
to play the role of a pioneer in
making the dream of a Jain-Shrine a
reality. |

Presently positioned on the right side of the pedestal or step of
the main temple, the foot -print of the lord are the first object
of workship and homage. |

As per the Copper-plate records (TAMRA PATRA) this idol was

own disciples, Shrimad Kesh Swami and was installed (ANJAN–SHALAKA) at Tinduk Udyan at a time when the 24th Tirthankar
Lord Mahaveer Swami was of 30 years of age only. |
