Our sins came to an end by waydust of the holy place. Who so ever goes
round pilgrimages he doesn't go around the world. Wealth becomes steady by spending it in
the holy places. It doesn't decrease. A worshipper becomes worth of worship by pilgrimages
worship, devotion, meditation and services.
Jangam Thirtha and
Sthavar Thirth
Pilgrimage is the only way to go across this world. The great sages have
defined and described two types of pilgrimages. One is Jin agam, Jin idols, Jin temples
are fixed or shawar two of pilgrimages. Saints, nuns, Shrawaks - shrawikas are (movable)
or Jangam thirths.
The sins done at otherq places destroy at Pilgrimage.
A pilgrimage washes away all the done by human beings. Pilgrimage is the
best source of renunciation and salvation for desires of "moksha" in this era
full of sins. The place of God Gineshwar and holy sages make these holy places peaceful
and full of happiness. The immortal holy place siddhachal has its own greatness. Most
respectable saint Dada Gurudeo Prabhu Shrimad Vijay Rajendra Surishwarji had dwelt on this
earth of Malwa and he had made it pious by his holy penance and holy preaching. He
established a Jinalaya of Shatrunjay incarnation Rishabdeoji to the West of Rajgarh in
1940. There was a place named Kheda near by Rajgarh. The inhabitants were Banjaras.
Pujya gurudeo was passing through this area suddenly his feet took a pause
on this valley. This great saint had a peep through his dhyan yoga that there is going to
be holy pilgrimage construction on this hill. He saw an eternal peace giving gracious
light cluster there. He came to Rajgarh and asked Jin Lunaji Porwal to go to Kheda and
mark the place where he could see a "Swastik of Kumkum". He also asked him to
mark the place. He further said that Lunaji had to build a temple over there. Jamidar
Lunaji acted accordingly. He saw the place with KumKum Swastika. He started digging after
remembering Dada Gurudeo.
In Vikram Samwat 1940 on Mrag Shirsh Shukla 7th all Jin bimbs
including God Rishabdo were established after anjan shalaka. Pujya Gurudeo declared after
puja that this temple will be called a great pilgrim place hence forward. As Siddhacha is
famous so will be this place. It should be named "Mohankheda" hence after. It is
to be noted that Siddachal tirth has 108 names. Mohangiri is one of them. It is said that
a white snake having a gem on the head used to live on this earth. Even today there is a
small temple ands hole is there at the backside of the Jinalaya near Rayan tree. The
pilgrims started visiting this place equivalent to Siddachal.
In samwat 1963 on Paush Sudi 6th in the midnight in Rajgarh most
respected Guru Shri Rajendra Surishwarji passed in a trance. Thousands of his disciples
bid him good bye and paid their last homage to him on the ground of Jinalaya on Paush Sudi
7th. His funeral took place.
