We had the rare opportunity of visiting the temple of Shri Antariksha Parshwanath and see the miracle of deity being suspended freely. It is really awe inspiring. We were all treated very nicely and provided with all the facilities during our stay here. Our thanks are due to the trustees.

Bombay, 18th May 66 People, as I understand, are losing faith in God whether represented as Paraswanath or Krishna or Ram or christ or Mohammad. The mistake, it seems, is not understanding the concept of secularism. Secularism means in simple words "as tolerance towards each and every religion," I am a vaishnav, but have read more about Jain Dharma and getting attracted towards its principle. I wish people develope “faith" which will make their families happy and the whole country happy. This could be done by starting moral and spiritual teachings in our school and colleges the comparative studies of religion in the world. Then alone Bharat will be able to have the same stature as she Bharat ) had thousand years ago.
This temple is not only a place for worship, faith but indicates our art of architecture. I am sure the management of this temple will keep up the traditions of character of Bharat.

Akola. 5-12-66 I am very happy to have been able to come to Sirpur and visit the Parasnath temple. I am too low to pass any remarks on the holiness or beauty of the place. Many places like this bring back India to its ancient glory.
I am glad we have after all been able to provide telephone communication to this place. The communication with God needs no will. Lets all keep in contact with Him and Not forget HIS GRACE.
