सिद चक्र
Shri Siddha Chakra Yantra Siddhachakra yantra is like a visualisation of the Navkara Mahamantra recited by Jains every day. Vase-shape mandala painted in brown has Arhat or the Tirthankara in the centre. The other four venerable ones namely the liberated ones, the chief monk, the teacher monk and the monk are all seated in the petals of the four cardinal directions. The rest of the four petals are blank There are small shrines in all the four corners, dedicated to Ksetrapala, Vimalesvara, a Siddha and Chakreshvari. King Shripala and queen Mayanavati are worshipping the Siddhachakra. The fact that there are two public annual celebrations centered round the Siddhachakra worship, speaks for its popularity
