4 jain tirtha of current time era
In the present time‑cycle (our current Avasarpini), the four main moksha‑bhoomi Tirths that are physically known and visited today are usually spoken of as:
- Shri Sammed Shikharji (Samet Shikhar / Parasnath Hill, Jharkhand)
- Place where 20 out of 24 Tirthankars of the current era attained moksha - Therefore considered the holiest Jain Tirth of this time - Both Digambar and Shvetambar traditions fully accept it as Siddha‑kshetra - More details: Sammed Shikharji tirth description and here
- Shri Girnar Tirth (Revatgiri / Ujjayantigiri, Gujarat)
- Moksha‑bhoomi of Bhagwan Neminath (22nd Tirthankar) - Very ancient, connected with the life, diksha and keval‑jnan of Neminath Bhagwan - Accepted as a major Shashwat (eternal) Tirth - More details: Girnar tirth information
- Shri Champapuri (Bihar)
- Moksha‑bhoomi of Bhagwan Vasupujya (12th Tirthankar) - Counted among the important siddha‑kshetras of the current era
- Shri Pavapuri (Bihar)
- Moksha‑bhoomi of Bhagwan Mahavira (24th Tirthankar) - Here Bhagwan Mahavir attained final liberation in our present time‑cycle

Note about Ashtapad
- Shri Ashtapad (Mount Kailash region) is the moksha‑bhoomi of Bhagwan Rishabdev (Adinath).
- It is also an eternal Tirth, but the exact physical location and access in today’s time are considered lost/uncertain, so in practical “current era Tirth” lists, people usually highlight the four accessible moksha‑bhoomi Tirths above.
Digambar & Shvetambar view
- Both traditions agree on:
- Differences, if any, are only in some detailed stories, rituals, and temple traditions, not in the basic importance of these Tirths.
So, when people talk of “4 main Jain Tirth in the current era”, they usually mean these four known moksha‑bhoomi of our present 24 Tirthankars.
