Shri Rishabh Dev Digambar Jain Atishaya Kshetra or Kesariyaji Jain - Meenal Jain - 08-06-2014

It is said that the artistic idol of Bhagwan Rishabh Dev was brought at Rishabhdeo temple Dhulev from a village Khoonadary. According to the ruins found there it shows that in ancient time Khoonadary was a prosperous city. In Mughal period due to attacks on Khoonadary and killing of cows, the devotees shifted the idol at safer place. It is said that this idol was reverenced by Acharya Vidyanand in 8th – 9th century. According to some ancient petrographs found here, this Kshetra was renovated time to time.
