Sravana Belgoļa enshrines the spirit which alone is life. Jainism is the most logically consistent of all philosophies. It is not merely a ‘philosophy' but also a 'way of life'. Jainism enriched Indian civilisation.

A. N. UPADHYE--Belgoļa and Bahubali.
(Jain Ant. Vol. V; No. IV; Arrah; 1940; Pp. 137-140).
Śravana Belgoļa is a place of great cultural importance. Traditionally, the place is associated with Bhadrabāhu and Chandragupta Maurya, and the historical value of this tradition is now accepted by the standard authorities. It is on Vindhyagiri or Doddabetta that the image of Bāhubali stands. The life of Bāhubali has a noble lesson to the struggling humanity for all times to come.
