annuttar vimman dev name
In Jainism, Anuttara Viman refers to the "highest celestial abodes" where the most elevated celestial beings (devas) reside before their final birth, which is often as a Tirthankara or a liberated soul. These are the top four heavens in the upper world (Urdhva Loka).
The names of the four Anuttara Vimans and their presiding deities (Indras) are:
- Sarvārthasiddhi Viman
- Indra: Sarvārthasiddhi
- Sudharma Viman
- Indra: Sudharma
- Sukra Viman
- Indra: Sukra
- Prānat Viman
- Indra: Prānat
These celestial beings (Anuttara Devs) are considered to have attained a very high level of spiritual merit and are believed to be in their last birth as celestial beings before attaining liberation (moksha) in their subsequent human birth.
