Shri Mahudi Jain Tirth Yatra Gujarat

Embark on a spiritually uplifting 2 Nights / 3 Days Jain pilgrimage to Shri Mahudi Jain Tirth, one of the most sacred Jain temples in Gujarat. The temple is dedicated to Lord Ghantakarna Mahavir, known as the protector deity who grants blessings to devotees seeking relief from obstacles, fear, and suffering. Pilgrims believe that sincere prayer at Mahudi can bring peace, prosperity, and the fulfillment of wishes.

One of the most important traditions at Mahudi is the offering of “Sukhadi” (sweet prasad). As per temple customs, it must be consumed within the premises to receive divine blessings. This ritual signifies purity of devotion and humble acceptance of God’s grace. Thousands of pilgrims visit Mahudi daily, especially during Kartik Purnima, when a grand celebration is held.

To make this tour more spiritually engaging, the journey also covers the magnificent Taranga Jain Temple, an ancient shrine dedicated to Lord Ajitnath (2nd Jain Tirthankara). Set amidst the scenic Aravalli hills, the temple’s serene atmosphere offers a perfect setting for meditation and soul rejuvenation. The intricate carvings and stunning architecture reflect Jain art and devotion at its finest.

The tour further includes a visit to Hatkeshwar Mahadev Temple, believed to be the Kuladevata (family deity) of Nagar Brahmins. Devotees from different spiritual backgrounds visit this temple seeking blessings from Lord Shiva. The peaceful ambiance and historical essence make it an ideal end to your pilgrimage journey.

This tour is curated to provide a balanced inclusion of spirituality, relaxation, and smooth travel, making it ideal for families, Jain Sangh groups, senior citizens, and spiritually inclined travelers.
