Bhagawan Vighnahar Parshvanath

Mulnayak: Nearly 72 cms, high white-colored idol of Bhagawan Vighnahar Parshvanath in the Padmasana posture.

How to reach: It is in the village Mota (big) Posina of the Khedbrahma Taluk. This sacred place is at an interior distance of 12 kilometers from the temple of Kumbhariyaji on the highway road in Khedbrahma Taluk.  Khedbrahma is 40 Kms from this place. Bus service and private vehicles are available. At a distance of 8 kilometers from this place there is a beautiful hill. By crossing it, one can go to Rajasthan. There are an Upashraya and boarding and lodging facilities.
Historicity: This idol was found beneath the ground under a big tree in the thirteenth century. At an auspicious hour the installation ceremony was performed  and  suddenly a fire broke out. But the fire got extinguished by itself without any  loss to temple or anything. Hence the  name ‘Vighnahara Parshvanath’. Another name for Vighnahar Parshvanath is Vighnahar Parshvanath. This beautiful temple was installed by His Holiness. Acharyadev Somasundarsurishvarji. In this sacred place, there are three other temples. Kshetrapalji in the temple of Mahavir Swami is very miraculous.
