| Historical Details |
: |
The temple belongs to the times of Bhagawan Mahavir. There is a mention that Bhagawan Mahavir wandered about here many times and many times his samvasarans were constructed here. It is believed that Gautam Swami, the first Ganadhar of Bhagawan Mahavir attained omniscience here. There is a mention that Bhagawan Mahavir stayed here many times in the Gunashil. Chaitya ‘Guniyaji’ is a deformation of ‘Gunashil’. And that is the reason why this tirth is important.
