A basadi is a Jain temple or place of worship, especially common in South India.

It is a sacred place where Jains:

• offer devotion to the Tirthankars
• perform puja and prayer
• listen to spiritual teachings
• practice peace, purity, and reverence

In some regions, “basadi” is used more specifically than “temple,” but in Jain tradition it generally means a Jain worship place.
