Malpura Dadabadi temple gate

Jaipur, June 08,2010

Malpura is a famous Jain pilgrimage center in Rajasthan near Jaipur. Malpura is renowned for Dada Jin Kushal Suri. Dada Jin Kushal Suri left for his heavenly abode some seven centuries back at Deraur (Pakistan). It is told that a devotee of Dada Jin Kushal Suri at Malpura could not believe the news. He told himself,"I will believe the sad news if Dada himself will tell me the same."

Dada Jin Kushal Suri came from the heaven to satisfy the urge of his devotee. He shew himself standing over a stone. The stone is kept as it is and being worshipped by the devotees. A beautiful Dadabadi is build to pay homage Dada saheb.

It is worth noted that Dada Jin Kushal Suri was an Acharya in Khartargachchha clan of Jain. He is widely worshipped among his devotees all over India and overseas. Hundreds of Dadabadis are built in his name all over India and in some places overseas.

I have posted here few images of Malpura Dadabadi and some videos about other dadabadis and dadaguru dev puja.
