General definition (in Jainism)

Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection I

Ṭīḍī (टीडी) is another name for Mewar, an ancient city, according to the “Sumatisādhusūri nau vīvāhalau” (dealing with individual religious teachers in Jain literature), which is included in the collection of manuscripts at the ‘Vincenzo Joppi’ library, collected by Luigi Pio Tessitori during his visit to Rajasthan between 1914 and 1919.—What we have here is a praise of his life itinerary with focus on his religious life and religious conduct and on some key-events, combining traditional motives in the lives of great men (Jinas) and real names. The scene takes place in Mewar, in the village of Jāur (mod. Jāvar) about six miles north to Ṭīḍī, located on the road between udaipur and Kesariyaji (Vijayadharmasūri 1915: 22 n. 3). The village is described at length (vs. 3foll.). It had a temple dedicated to Śāntinātha to which homage his paid (vs. 9).
