Infinite Tirthankaras established the tirth in order to enable all
souls in bondage to take delight in the law and enjoy eternal bliss. The land purified by
the five kalyanaks (beneficent events in the life of a tirthankara) namely, chyavan
(coming to the mother's womb), birth , diksha, attainment of omniscience and attainment of
salvation of a Tirthankara, is a tirth, A holy place. The holy place liberates the soul
from the cycle of transmigration and leads to salvation. Let us aspire to visit the sacred
places where the Tirthankara gave sermous, wandered about, had their monsoon sojourns and
witnessed the important events of their life. We should conceive the pious thoughts that
the land was purified by the touch of infinite siddhas. We should sanctify human life by
pilgramging the sacred places.
The sacred land and the pudgala particles of that land are so potential that they can
purify the sinner. The soul gets liberated from anger, pride, conceit, greed etc. and
expresses the innate qualities of purity,
Straightforwardness etc.,In the proximity God, the pilgrim experiences great peace. The
sun is far, far away but its light develops the lotus in the lake. Similarly, our attempt
to take the faithful formunate souls on a spiritual journey, will bless them with
wonderful peace.
Sacred places are many. Some of them are invisible. Our effort is to present through the
media of this Internet website the history of some of the sacred places, the view of the
tamples and Mulnayak, the heart of the Jain thoughts, explanation of Jain Sutras and their
significance so as to enable the viewers to see, know and enjoy them in their own homes,
In this age of speed, it is not convenient to buy, read and keep books.
Whenever one desires, one can go on a spiritual pilgrimage to the sacred places and
experience great peace and ennoble the soul. With the blessing of our most venerable
parents and with the valuable co-operation of many respectable Acharyas, Munis, Managers
of Pedhis, Friends and Relatives, we are progressing towards our aim obstrucations. We
expressed our deep felt greatfulness to them all.
We hope that our endearour will become useful and popular. We also hope and pray that by
grace of Jineshwars, our efforts will be successful in explaining to the curious viewers
the importance of the Jain religion and lead them towards its light.
