Mera Bali
The Dilwara temples of India are located about 2½ kilometers from Mount Abu, Rajasthan's only hill station. These Jain temples were built by Vastapul Tejpal, a Jain laymen between the 11th and 13th
centuries AD and are world-famous for their stunning use of marble.
The five legendary marble temples of Dilwara are a sacred pilgrimage place of
the Jains. Some consider them to be one of the most beautiful Jain pilgrimage
sites in the world. The marble temples have an opulent entranceway, the
simplicity in architecture reflecting Jain values like honesty and frugality.
The temples are in the midst of a range of forested hills. A high wall shrouds
the temple complex.
Although the Jains
built some beautiful temples at other places in Rajasthan, some believe that
none come close to these in terms of architectural perfection. The ornamental
detail spreading over the minutely carved ceilings, doorways, pillars and
panels is simply marvelous.
Facilities are
available for bathing, which is mandatory before puja is performed for the idols. These
facilities use passive solar power to heat up the water for bathing and other
things. Guided tour hours for tourists are posted outside the temple.
There are five temples in all, each
with its own unique identity. Each is named after the small village in which it
is located. These are:
-Vimal
Vasahi, dedicated to the first Jain Tirthankara, Rishabha.
-Luna
Vasahi, dedicated to the 22nd Jain Tirthankara, Neminatha.
-Pithalhar,
dedicated to the first Jain Tirthankar, Rishabha.
-Parshvanath,
dedicated to the 23rd Jain Tirthankara, Parshvanatha.
-Mahavir
Swami, dedicated to the last Jain Tirthankara, Mahavira.
Among all the five legendary marble
temples of Dilwara, the most famous of those are the Vimal Vasahi and the Luna
Vasahi temples.
