________________
HAMPANA : STATUS OF WOMEN IN JAINISM IN KARNATAKA
115 Vardhamāna-basadi, Pārsvanātha-basadi and half a dozen completely ruined basadis speak of the past glory. The best of all temples is the caturmukha-basadi, a magnificent piece of art and architecture. Built on a terrace of 20' high, in the star shape, in the centre of the above temple are the grand images of four Tirthankaras seated back to back in paryankāsana posture. The basadi has doors on all the four sides. Rāņi Cenna-bhairādevi-Amma was a liberal patron of architecture.

A kingdom which was an important Jaina settlement, after the fall of the queen mahāmandalesvari Cennabhairādevī-Amma, wore a look of deserted capital, and the ruins are the mute witness of the glory that is no more. Sources: 1. Epigraphia Carnatica, Vol. VII-I (BLR) Śikāripura No.
