These events took place in the last decades of the 14th century CE. The image was first in Patan and hidden in the ground for protection. It was then taken to Pārakara via Rādhanpur by Meghā Śāh. In a dream Meghā Śāh received the instruction to take the image to the village of Goḍīpura. This happened in VS 1432. Twelve years later, in VS 1444, the image was finally consecrated. Evidence shows that it was seen and admired by numerous visitors and pilgrims between the 17th and the 20th century. [...]

context information

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance’) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
