Listen! My dear

Jagadguru Shri Hirvijaysuri - By Dr. Renuka Porwal, Mob.: 098218 77327
Impressed by the principles of Jainism, the Emperor wanted to help the Jain Sangh. So Suriji requested
Please stop animal killing, during the 8 days of 'Paryushana Parva'.
Suriji, I will add another 4 days. Animal slaughter will be banned for 12 days.
At Sirohi in Marwad, King Surtan had imprisoned 100 innocent traders. When Guruji met the king, He requested him
PRABUDHH JEEVAN
Please free the acquitted businessmen
Once, Emperor Akbar came to know about Hirvijaysuri's greatness and invited him to his palace at Fatehpur-Sikri.
Welcome, Suriji

Akbar was very happy with the Guru's compassionate personality and adherence to Jain tenets.

I confer the title 'Jagadguru' to Suriji
During 'Varshavasa' in 1596 A.D. Jagadguru was at Una in Gujarat. He was getting very weak. Knowing his short life span, he started chanting Mantrajapa
Aum Arham Namah
In the Palace, Akbar walked on the carpet, but Suriji didn't step ahead.
Oh! You
are correct
Honourable King,
We Jaina ascetics don't
walk on carpets. See, there might be some insects.
As requested by Akbar, Suriji's two disciples stayed back. They performed Jain Pooja at AbulFazal's place to save his daughter from the bad influence of Graha.
His Nirvana took place at Una. When Akbar heard this sad news, he donated the funeral land to the Jaina Sangh. It was declared as 'Shahibaga and included in the Panchtirthi of Diu, Delvada,
Ajahara, Una and Shahibaga.
