-Trisasti..X.11, p. 149. The Nisitha Carni, vol. III, pp. 139-147 repeats the account of Daśapura etc. narrated above from Avaśyaka Cúrni and specifies further that it was an
image showing ornaments on the person of Mahavira. 18. The conception of the Jivantasvämi image of Mahavira
remained popular in the mediaeval period and was later applied to images of other Tirthankaras as can be seen from a reference to Jivantasvami-Pärsvanatha image on a golden chariot, in the story of Vankacula given by Rajasekhara (v.s. 1405)-Prabandha-kosa, ed. by Muni Jina vijaya, p. 76.
