Nandishvara Dvipa The island called Nandishvara Dvipa is an island of delight for the gods. It is beautified with gardens of various designs in it. Gods celebrate the birth of the Tirthankaras on this island. Its composition and placement of various shrines are described in detail in the treatises on Jaina cosmology. 108 eternal statues of the Jinas adorn the Shasvata Jinalayas of the island which are surrounded by exquisite gardens and lakes. The Nandishvara Patas symbolically representing these Shashvata Jinalayas or Jinas is very popular with the Jain devotees.
