This sacred place is regarded to be the chief sacred place of the ‘Abdasa’ Taluka of Bhuj - Kutch. Since this image is very miraculous, it is widely famous. The idol often works miracles. Shri Uddeshi Shravaka got this idol from a villager.
He took it home and put it in the granary. The granary got filled with grains. Similarly, the ghee - pots remained full, though ghee was used. The devotees, therefore, called the idol Ghrutkalol Parshvanath.
This temple was formally installed on the eighth day of the bright half of the month of Vaishakh in the year 1895 of the Vikram era. Thrice in a year, the sun rays touch the feet of the idol
