Importance of Shree Shatrunjaya Tirth

Hearing the glories of Shree Shatrunjaya Tirth, is the greatest achievement of attaining human birth and listening to various shastras.

Meditating upon Shree Shatrunjaya Tirthadhiraj and Shri Jineshwar Dev is the ultimate experience, since there is no other tirth as supreme as the great Shree Shatrunjaya Tirthadhiraj and no other noble religion than of worshipping Shri Jineshwar dev. The mere thought of Shri Pundarikgiri destroys even the most terrible sins committed in mind - words - deeds. Violent animals like lions-snakes, birds like peacocks - kites and other animals too can attain salvation by worshipping the Shatrunjaya tirth and Shri Arihantprabhu. The greatness of such a tirth should be experienced at least once. The birth of those living beings is futile, who have not worshipped this glorious tirth in their life. By only listening to the glories of Shree Shatrunjaya tirth, one can achieve infinite fruits which are not possible even by performing big donations, pujan, dhyaan etc. in other tirths. This is the reason all great souls must listen to the glories of Shri Giriraj with utmost devotion.
