Reviews Of Jain Temple

Pattadakal, Karnataka, India:
The Jain Temple, also known as the Jain Narayana Temple, is a solitary but impressive structure located away from the main cluster of Hindu temples in Pattadakal. Believed to have been built in the 9th century CE, it is the last major monument constructed at the site and stands as a remarkable examp le of Dravidian architecture, although its patronage is generally attributed to the Rashtrakuta dynasty, likely King Amoghavarsha I or his successor Krishna II, after the decline of the Chalukya power. This temple is dedicated to the 23rd Tirthankara, Lord Parshvanatha, and its existence highlights the religious tolerance and diverse patronage that defined the Deccan region during this period. Built on a high, intricately moulded platform (Adhishthana), the temple is characterized by its large, open pillared hall (Mukhamandapa) featuring sixteen round pillars and a significant stone bench (Kakshasana) with a backrest running along the periphery, providing a place for contemplation. Although the main idol is now missing, the temple's walls and pillars feature carvings of Jinas, Yakshas, and Yakshis, affirming its Jain affiliation. The complex was carefully restored by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) in the early 2000s, including the restoration of the circumambulatory path's exterior wall. The temple offers a peaceful and structurally distinct experience from the Shiva temples, providing a complete view of Pattadakal's architectural and religious scope. (Word Count: Approx. 396 words):
