Review highlights
- IMPORTANT NUANCE flagged directly by reviewers: this ancient temple's main idol (Lord Adinath/Rishabhdev, worshipped locally as 'Kesariyanath') is revered by Digambar Jains, Shwetambar Jains, Hindus AND tribal Bhil communities alike, and its priests are Audichya Brahmins, not Jain pujaris - a genuinely unique multi-faith management/worship arrangement. One review reports ongoing management/ownership disputes between Digambar Jain, Shwetambar Jain and Hindu community claims, and describes aggressive tilak-seeking by local pandas (priests) at the site - worth being prepared for. Daily abhishek follows Digambar ritual (jal and dugdh/milk, followed by kesar/saffron application) per one detailed review.
