Shri
Vahi Tirth

Mulnayak: Nearly 58 cms.
high, black-colored idol of Bhagawan Vahi Parshvanath in the Padmansana posture.
How to reach: It is in the Vahi village. This tirth is at a distance
of 5 kilometers from the Pipaliya Mandi station and 16 kilometers from Mandasor. Bus
service and private vehicles are available. In the village there are two dharmashalas, a
bhojanshala and an upashraya.
Historicity: This seems to be a very prosperous city of the ancient
times. This temple was built by King Samprati. This idol is distinct, ancient and very
impressive. In this beautiful temple, there is a cellar, too. Since this tirth is in
Vahinagar, the idol is called Vahi Parshvanath. This land is sanctified by foot-steps of
many Rev ascetics. Once a pilgrim sees this idol, an earnest spiritual desire to see it
again rises in his heart. The idol looks beautiful with seven hoods in this splendid
pinnacled temple. The strange figure of tiger under the idol in a cross-legged posture is
astonishing. In the morning the idol of God looks like that of a child. At noon, it looks
like that of a youth. In the evening, it looks like that of an old man. Many ancient
stories of this fascinating tirth prove its antiquity.
