    4. Narsingh Veer
    5. Gopal Veer

    30. Ghantākarn Mahāvīr
    31. Bhedanad Veer
    32. Vibhīṣaṇ Veer
    33. Fahetak Veer
    34. Patra Veer
    35. Khadag Veer
    36. Nāghast Veer

    48. Piśāch Veer
    49. Trimukh Veer
    50. Dachak Veer

    Spiritual point to remember: Worship of these vīras is always meant to remain secondary and supportive. In pure Jain dharma, the main focus of śraddhā and bhakti is always on the Arihant, Siddha, Āchārya, Upādhyāya and Sādhu, as expressed in the Navkār Mantra.
