Introduction and History
The small, spiritual and beautiful shrine is dedicated to Digambar Saints and respacted Jain Saints situated in the holy abode of Dadar, Mumbai, Maharashtra.
Digambara Sādhu (also muni, sādhu) is a Sādhu in the Digambar tradition of Jainism, and as such an occupant of the highest limb of the four-fold sangha. They are also called Nirgranth which means “one without any bonds”. Digambar Sādhus have 28 primary attributes which includes observance of the five supreme vows of ahimsa (non-injury), truth, non-thieving, celibacy and non-possession. A Digambar Sādhu is allowed to keep only a feather whisk, a water gourd and scripture with him.
The Ascetic (Sādhu) keeps with him a feather-whisk (picchī) – implement of compassion, a water-pot (kamaņdalu) – implement of purity, and scriptural treatise (śāstra) – implement of knowledge.
In Jainism, those śrāvakas (householders) who wish to attain moksha (liberation) renounce all possessions and become an ascetic. According to the Jain text, Dravyasamgraha:.
Digambar Sādhus are also called nirgranth which means “one without any bonds”.[3] The term originally applied to those of them who were on the point of attaining to omniscience, on the attainment of which they were called munis.
Rishabhanath (the first Tirthankar) is said to be the first Digambar Sādhu of the present half cycle of time (avasarpini). The presence of gymnosophists (naked philosophers) in Greek records as early as the fourth century BC, supports the claim of the Digambars that they have preserved the ancient Śramaṇa practice.. Āchārya Bhadrabāhu, Āchārya Kundakunda are two of the most revered Digambar Sādhus.
Importance of this Mandir is also because inside Swadhyay bhavan, all over the walls , one complete shastra has been written on marble.
