History bears
the testimony of the fact that Dehra -Tijara was a
well
developed region . The discovery of
this image of 1008 Bhagwan
Chandraprabh has a remarkable
history . In 1956 , the excavation
work was taken up for widening
of the roads. A small "Talghar"
was found . But, there were no signs
of any image. Shri Jabharam
and Mishrilal visited the site. They stated "jap
(recitation of mantras)
and had a dream. Accordingly after digging ,
three broken images
were found . Later on , Late Smt. Saraswati devi
w/o Late Biharilal
jain started fasting .And , after three days on Shravan Shukla
Navami
she had a dream in the
midnight about the exact location of
the
image.She reached to the destination with lighted "deepak"&
marked
the place.When the marked spot was dug, the idol was
discovered on
Shravan Shukla Dashmi (16:08:1956) at 11:50am.at noon.When people
got the glimpse of grand idol of 1008 chandraprabh,
their happiness
knew no bounds.The hearts of the masses filled with joy &
satisfaction.
There was an atmosphere of gay
& gaiety everywhere. The whole
environment was electrified with religious
sentiments with shouting
slogans : Bhagwan chandraprabhu ki jai, Dhera wale baba ki jai.
This image bears the date "vaishakh shukla
3,1554 vikram samvat".
Later on with the grace of Acharya Shri Vimalsagarji
maharaj, one
black idol of Bhagwan chandraprabh was discoverd on 29:3:1972. |
