| About
PawaGiri Una :

Other than Khajuraho, an ancient temple built in 12th century during the period
of
Parmars is here. Ballal, the king of Malwa committed to built 100 temples after
getting cured from sever disease, but he succeeded only in building 99 temples
one less than hundred. So this place was named Una. (It means one less than 100)
This temple was lost onwards. This temple was letter on searched in Year 1914
when Seth Shri Harsubhji of Susari came here to Una. In Year 1934 a man was
appointed here for worship. Letter on a very attractive idol of Lord Mahaveer
Swami in cross legged seating posture installed in V.S. 1252 was found from
under ground place. In V.S. 1953 while preparing for foundation of Dharmshala
(Guest House), an idol of 3 feet in height in cross legged seating posture of
Lord Sambhavnath (The 3rd Teerthankar) was found. This was installed in V.S.
1218. A pair of foot images was also found with this idol.
It is said that from this place four ascetic saints achieved salvation i.e.
Moksha (Final liberation from world) named Suvarnbhadra and others in the period
of Bhagwan Chandraprabhu (The 8th Teerthankar). This place is near Chirurha
River, which seems the corrupt of name Chelna River, as said in Nirvankand.
