Tirthankar Parshwanath idol being worshipped as Pareshnath 'Shiv/Mahadev' in Mukutmanipur, Bankura district, #WestBengal

Pareshnath Shiv Mandir is an open air temple & a holy place for locals.

During the construction of the Mukutmanipur dam, this idol was found while digging the Earth. It is an evidence of Jain religion flourishing in this area. There are many stone idols there & people strongly believe that some of the idols are Jain deities.

However this is developed as a #Hindu temple and revered by locals. Many people come here to celebrate ‘Maha Shivratri’ festival. People do come here to see the mesmerising Sunset.

An Epitome of #Humanity: Diwan Todarmal

Who laid 78000 Gold coins to buy 4 yards of land to cremate the bodies of #Sikh Guru Gobind Singh's 2 sons & his mother in 1704 CE; who were executed & denied last rites as they refused to convert into #Islam
#Thread Image
Seth Todarmal was born in an Oswal #Jain Shwetambar family in Punjab (exact city vary in diff sources) & his ancestors were wealthy Traders. In 1630CE, Emperor Shah Jahan promoted him to the post of Diwan-cum-Faujdar in Sirhind, Punjab. (A biopic on him was released in 2023).
(2) Image
In 1658, as soon as Aurangzeb got the throne, he replaced all the bureaucrats with Muslims. He dismissed Diwan Todarmal & appointed Wazir Khan. Hence, Todarmalji stayed in his Jahazi Haveli at Sirhind & continued his business.

Sheth Motichand sha

He was born in 1782, to Seth Amin Chand & Roopa Bai at Bombay. Amin Chand had migrated from Khambat to Bombay in 1758 at the age of 13 where he started jewellery business. There he built a griha jinalay.
#Thread #SundaySpecial Image
But when he died, the family was left behind in a critical financial condition. His eldest son Nemi Chand started brokerage & paid off father's debts but died young at 31. Within 5 years Motichand developed business to great heights & became a millionaire
(2) Image
His business ventures spread far & wide. He slowly acquired a fleet of 40 ships operating from China to Bahrain. He, thus, broke the monopoly of the British & became a shipping magnate. His reputation spread to Arab countries, to Java-Sumatra, China & Sri Lanka
