The story of how these idols were brought to this place is as awe inspiring as the idols themselves. Gurudev tells us that one night when he was in deep slumber, Mother Padmavathi appeared in his dream and indicated a telephone number. On waking up, he dialed the number in a daze. Imagine his stupor when he learned that it was the number of a resident of Delhi called Atul Shah who deals with idols of Gods and Goddesses! As soon as Atul Shah realized who was calling him, his excitement knew no bounds because he had also received similar divine instructions! Following those instructions, he had now in his possession an idol of Parshwa Prabhu and was waiting to know where and to whom to deliver the same. Thus, the idol reached its divine destination, Krishnagiri. But prior to the consecration of the idol at the centre, it was placed in Gurudev's residence where a sudden shower of amivarhsa and saffron on the idol was witnessed in stunned awe by many devotees. This unique pilgrim centre and the consecration of Shri Shakti Parshwanatha Prabhu, Sahasraphana Shakti Parshwanatha and the twenty-three forms of Mother Padmavathi leaves the devotees in an esoteric, transcendental trance. These idols have blessed and relieved them from pain and misfortune.

The inner area of the sanctum is decorated with broken bits of coloured glass in artistic rendition. So also are the roof, walls and pillars aesthetically decorated to stun the visitors with their beauty only comparable to God’s own rainbows. The experience does not end with this visual treat. One gets to imbibe the auras of deep worship where the Jinas are revered and also goes on to experience the true bond between man and beast as one passes through a large cow shelter housing almost 150 cows which expounds the message of non violence and peaceful co-existence.

Who, but a great saint, could have ever visualized and brought to form a temple as high as 365 feet, so alluring and so mighty? Could a bhogi, immersed in the trials of worldly life, ever present such a magnificent gift to mankind?

Temples and idols

Nagraj temple was built which is presently near to the guest house. It is believed that to fulfill any needs devotees after their prayer should tie fruit in a red cloth and present it to Nagraj. Hence devotees who come here believe and do this ritual to fullfill their needs.

Bhomyaji temple: Next to nagraj temple is Bhomyaji temple. Gurudev ji had an opportunity to go for Sammedh sikhar (a divine place or mountain where among 24 jain theerthankar 20 of them attained moksha or salvation) journey. In this divine place Gurudev ji meditated or worshipped (without any food and water) Sri Parshwanath Bhagwan. On the third day at night the protector of Sammedh Sikhar god Bhomiya Bhairav appeared and told that he will also protect Krishnagiri Thirth. Hence a temple for Lord Bhomiya in the same design and size as that of temple in Sammedh Sikhar is constructed next to Nagraj temple in Krishnagiri. Devotees after worshipping Lord Nagraj will worship Lord Bhomiya Bhairavji.

After that Devotees enter the glass temple. Devotees worship in the following manner.
Lord Batuk Bhairav (also known as Kaale Bhairav).
Nakoda Bhairavji
Shree Parshwanath Bhagwan
Shakthi Parshwanath
Nakoda Parshwanath
Sankeshwar Parshwanath
Ganadhar Gautham Swamy (first Gurudev Ji of Jain dharma)
Dharmendra dev (Indra of Naglok as well as dear husband of goddess Padmavathi)
Parshwa Yaksh dev (Parshwanath Bhagwans protector)
Two Parshwanath at the entrance
Dharmendra Parshwa Yaksh
Padmavathi Devi
Patta Mahishi Bhairotya devi (Also considered second wife of Dharmendra dev. Also only idol in whole world)

In 2003 Gurudev ji had darshan of Padmavathi devi after meditating for 8 months in silence. Devi showed 33 different forms during the darshan like Rog nivaararani (or goddess who cure disease), Shog nivaarani goddess (who drives away sorrow) etc. After darshan Gurudev ji sketched out different forms of goddess Padmavathi and asked sculptors to do idols according to wat he saw. Devotees based on their problems can pray that particular form of Padmavathi to keep away the trouble. There are 3300 forms of Padmavathi and these forms can be added to these 33 forms of Padmavathi.
