Description

Anyone who has visited Sravana Belagola and spent some time at the lotusfeet of the 18 meter granite monolith of Bahubali will be blessed with a lifelong affection toward this Jain Thirtankara. For more than 1000 years he has overlooked the surrounding landscape and attracted devotees and tourists alike from all over the world. His simple appearence and strong determination make him a never-ending source of spritual inspiration for millions of people.

Unfortunately we have only a very limited source of materials to verify the dating of this striking bronze and we have been dependant on the knowledge of others for the dating . If anyone viewing this page can offer any information at all it would be very gratefully received.
