‘Acharya Bhagwant Shrimad Buddhisagar Suriswarji Maharaj Saheb’ watched over and supervised the installation of the idol of Shri Ghantakarna Mahavir in the new temple during the Vikram era in 1974 (1917). Mahudi restored the name known as Tirtha or Mahudi Tirth. Shri Ghantakarna Mahavir’s idol is very amazing. Thousands of devoted and devout pilgrims come here to satisfy their desires. The Jain-style charity offering ceremony is held annually in the temple of Shri Ghantakarna Mahavir on the fourteenth day of the dark half of the month of Aso.

A large Ghanta or bell Behind it, the Ghantakarna temple is to the right of the cage, and another little shrine to the monk who founded this temple, Buddhi Sagar Maharaj, is to the left. When they ring it The deity’s bell-shaped ears (ghanta) (Karna) are the reason it is called “Ghantakarna.”

Mahudi Sukhadi

Since it is considered inauspicious to take the sukhadi outside of the premises of the temple, devotees are not allowed to eat it anywhere else than on the temple’s premises. The timely supply of hot’sukhadi’ is guaranteed by the temple administration. To handle the rush, huge quantities are occasionally needed, but the temple staff is up to the task. A never-ending supply of’sukhadi-filled plates emerges from the kitchen. Various amounts are available based on the needs of the followers.
