    Chickpet Digambar Jain temple

    5 months ago 102

    Chickpet has more than one Jain temple, but when people say “Chickpet Digambar Jain temple” they usually mean the Digambar temples in the old market area of central Bengaluru (pincode 560053).

    1) Shri Mahavira Digambar Jain Temple, Dewan’s Lane

    • Sect: Digambar
    • Location: Dewan’s Lane, Chickpet area (Bengaluru Pete). ( en.wikipedia.org)
    • Main idol: Bhagwan Mahavira in kāyotsarga (standing meditation posture).
    • Other idols generally present: Parshvanath, Bahubali, Vimalnath, Anantnath, and Yaksha images. ( en.wikipedia.org)
    • Features: Traditional Digambar style temple; used for daily pooja, pratikraman, and festivals like Mahavir Jayanti and Paryushan (Das Lakshan). Some descriptions mention a dharmashala / facilities for yatris and a small library on Jain granths. ( en.wikipedia.org)

    2) Shri Digambar Simandhar Swami Samosharan Jin Mandir, Chickpet

    • Sect: Digambar
    • Location: Chickpet area, Bengaluru (often listed just as “Chickpet, Bengaluru – Digambar Jain Temple”). ( jainstavan.in)
    • Main idol: Simandhar Swami in Samavasaran style (samosharan jin mandir).
    • Timings (approx.):
    - Morning: ~6:00 am to 12:00 noon - Evening: ~5:00 pm onwards ( jainstavan.in)
    • Activities: Regular aartis, special bhavya pooja and programmes on important tithis and parvas, pravachans when sadhus/sadhvijis are in town.

    Basic Digambar maryādā when visiting

    • Wear clean, modest clothes (avoid shorts, sleeveless, very tight or revealing dress).
    • Remove footwear before entering the mandir.
    • Maintain complete silence or very low voice; avoid mobile use inside garbhagrih.
    • Do not eat or drink inside the temple area; come after at least basic shauch and with shuddh bhav.
    • Women generally avoid entering the garbhagrih during rajaswalā (monthly cycle) as per traditional practice.

    If you tell me what exactly you need (darshan timings, exact address, stay / bhojanshala details, or history), I can give more focused information for that particular Digambar temple in Chickpet.
