Nestled on a quiet hillock in the outskirts of the town of Dharampur in Southern Gujarat, is Shrimad Rajchandra Ashram, the International Headquarters of Shrimad Rajchandra Mission Dharampur. Spread over a lush expanse of 223 acres, envisioned by Pujya Gurudevshri, this spiritual sanctuary is a vibrant centre of activity dedicated to the pursuit of a higher existence.
Adorning the highest point of the Ashram, the magnificent new 108-pillar Jinmandir will stand as a testimony to the timeless tenets of Jainism for generations to come.
Bhagwan Mahavira as the moolnayak or principal deity will be flanked by idols of six other Tirthankar Bhagwans. The dhwaja or ceremonial flag at a height of 108 feet, will soar high over the pinnacle of the Ashram.
Built over 2.5 acres of land, with five impressive shikhars or crests, two large mandaps or squares, the richly carved structure will accommodate over 1600 seekers.
The present-day Jinmandir is a sanctum sanctorum of peace and serenity inaugurated on Mahavir Jayanti in 2002.
