    Is there any derasar of any previous chovisi bhagwan

    6 hrs ago 8

    Yes. In Jain tradition, there are derasars dedicated to Tirthankars of the previous chovisis as well, especially in places where their idols were installed and worshipped.

    A few points to understand:

    • A Chovisi means the group of 24 Tirthankars.
    • We mainly know the current avasarpini chovisi from Rishabhdev to Mahavir Swami.
    • Jain history and tradition also speak of earlier and later chovisis.
    • Temples or derasars may have murtis of earlier Tirthankars, but such idols are less commonly known because the current chovisi is the one most widely worshipped today.

    So, yes, derasars of previous chovisi Bhagwans can exist, but they are usually not as commonly identified or visited as temples of the present chovisi.

    If you want, I can also explain the difference between:

    • current chovisi
    • previous chovisi
    • future chovisi
