| About Tijara :
|
Shri 1008 Chandra Prabhu Digambar Jain Atishaya Kshetra Dehra Tijara is situated
in an ancient city Tijara of District Alwar in Rajasthan State. In ancient time
Tijara was a prosperous city and was the centre place of Jains. The place where
the warship of Jain Idols takes place is called Dehra. So at some time Dehra
Tijara was the centre of Jain community & Jain Temples, which was destroyed by
invaders in the middle period of Indian History. From the time of appearance of
Jain Idols, hidden under the earth, this area is now forwarding towards
prosperity.
The principal deity of Tijara Atishaya Kshetra is Bhagwan Chandra Prabhu (The
8th Teerthankar). The idol of Bhagwan Chandra Prabhu is very beautiful and
attractive in Padmasana Posture made of white stone that was discovered on
August 16, 1956 after digging.
Mrs. Saraswati Devi wife of Vaidya Shri Bihari Lal of Tijara kept fast of three
days. At the night of 3rd day, Mrs. Saraswati Devi saw a dream and came to know
about the place where the idol may be found. According to dream in the next
morning, this miraculous idol of Bhagwan Chandra Prabhu was discovered.
At the time of discovery of this idol, the rain started after digging and thus
consecration of idol took place naturally.
On March 29, 1972 another idol of Bhagwan Chandra Prabhu was discovered, black
in color, in Padmasana Posture after digging under the gate of a room situated
in south of the temple premises, under the guidance of Poojya Acharya Nirmal
Sagarji Maharaj.
Atishaya: - After the appearance of miraculous idol of Lord ChandraPrabhu,
growth in business & development of Tijara started and it is continuing. It is
said that after the Darshan (Viewing, Visiting) or worship of this miraculous

Ghee (Butter Oil) of Akhanda Jyoti and dust of the place of digging is used by
the devotees as medicine to get rid from disease & sorrow.
