Rani Veermati Story
While traveling King Mamman and Queen Veermati met a monk named Muniraj who was on his way to Ashtapad Tirth. Since then, Queen Veermati wanted to visit Ashtapad Tirth and pray there. After the Queen completed a long penance, Shasan Devi, a goddess, assisted Veermati to Ashtapad. The Queen prayed to all 24 Tirthankaras and placed a gemstone studded gold tilak on the forehead of all the idols. In a later life, as Queen Damayanti, her forehead was glowing like the ruby tilak that she had previously adorned on all the Tirthankaras.
