    According to Adhaar Paapasthana (Jain Sutra), Mithyatva is a paap (sin). Then why do we praise Manibhadra Dev and Padmavati maata.

    पद्मावती माँ एवं अन्य यक्ष यक्षिणी की पूजा कोई मिथ्यात्व नही है..कुछ अभिषेक पाठ में अभिषेक की पूर्व क्रियाओ में शाशन देवी एवं द्विगपालो का आवाहन किया जाता है। आगम यह भी अनुमति देता है कि तीर्थंकर प्रतिमाओ के साथ शाशन देवी एवं द्विगपालो की प्रतिमाएं भी उत्तीर्ण करवाई जा सकती है।
    इनकी पूजा करना मित्यत्व नही सम्यक्त्व है।।

    Mithyatv mean worshiping devs that not get samyaktva or devs that not belive the jinvani. Manibhadra, Padmavati, etc. are smyaktva dhari devi devta therfore we can worship them.
