"A person who scales Ashtapad & offers prayers to 24 Tirthankars attains Moksha in the same life." When Gautam Swami heard this, he requested
permission from Bhagawan Mahavir to go to Ashtapad. With the help of spiritual power, Gautam Swami scaled Ashtapad Mountain by holding onto sunrays as a rope. He offered his prayers to 24 Tirthankars & compiled the
first verse of Jag-Chintamani Sutram.
