Historicity:Situated sixty-five kilometers from Udaipur on the road to Ahmedabad, it is one of the most popular Jaina temples in Rajasthan. Since it is claimed as a place of worship not only by Jainas (predominately Shvetambara) but also by Hindus and especially by Bhils, who visit the temple in great numbers, it stands under the jurisdiction of the State of Pajasthan. This explains the armed guards. Tradition has it, that on some remote day it was a Bhil who, guided by a dream, discovered a black stone-image of Rishabha hidden in a tree. Eventually it came to be installed and consequently worshipped in this temple. The dark-skinned Bhils continue to see in the black colored statue an idol that has always belonged to them, whereas the Jainas date the image back to the time of Rama and Sita. For some time it was installed in a temple at Ujjain.

The Bhils and other pilgrims see vowing to undertake a pilgrimage to Rishabhdeo and to actually embark on it, as a way of getting one's wishes fulfilled. Non-stop buses for this popular site leave Udaipur Bus Station about every hour. There are many beliefs regarding the antiquity and history of this splendid, miraculous and extraordinary idol. This idol was in Lanka. It was very much worshipped in the times Bhagawan Munisuvrat Swami. Ramchandraji took it to Ayodhya. Then it was in Ujjain. In course of time, it appeared under a banyan tree outside Vatpradnagar. It was worshipped for some years. Again it appeared under a tree at distance of one kilometer from the village. This is the Chief Tirth of Jains in the Mewar State. A fair is held here every year on the eighth day of the dark half of the month of Fagan. With all the five fingers, people worship God here with Saffron. They give a gift of saffron to God. Bhils, know God by the name of ‘Kalababa’. Non - Jain devotees come here with faith. Since centuries, there is a custom of giving saffron to God as a gift. Sometimes so much saffron is plastered on God, that God looks saffron - colored. People, therefore, call God Kesariyanath. In the compound of this temple there is an idol of Marudevamata on elephant. There is also a temple of Bhagawan Jagvallabh Parshvanath. There are ancient Charan in the ancient small temple under a tree outside the village. It is said that the idol of God appeared here. The fifty-two pinnacles of the temple are seen from a long distance. The temple is very artistic. Its pinnacles, arches, doors, walls etc. are very artistic, beautiful and fascinating. The face of God is so delightful that the mind delights merely on seeing it.
