Jain Group of Temples...Khajuraho Series (1)
Khajuraho has been recognized by UNESCO as a place of world heritage on account of its magnificent temples.The temples of Khajuraho are generally divided into three groups: Western, Eastern and Southern. The Eastern group mainly consisting of Jain temples.There are total 34 Jain Temples. But from architectural point of view the Parshwanath, the Adinath and the Shantinath temples are relatively more important and noteworthy. Shri 1008 Lord Shantinath temple is the main temple with 14 ft. high colossus in the standing posture, the highest idol of all idols (deity images) of Khajuraho. According to an inscription on it, it is installed in Vikrama-Samvat 1085 (1028 AD). This temple is an assemblage of the fragmnets, pillars and images from older temples and is built around a courtyard. This temple also contains a picture-gallery, which exhibits photos of prominent Jain monuments of India. The Parshwanath temple is famous in the world as it contains some of the most excellent sculptures of Khajuraho e.g. figures of Lakshmi-Narain, Balram-Reoti, eight Dikpalas (i.e. Indra, Agni, Yama, Nirriti, Varuna, Vayu, Kuber and Isan), Ambika, Kamdev Rati, Ram-Sita along with Hanuman. This temple is also privileged to possess the best art pieces of Sura- Sundaris (Divine Nymphs) in various attractive postures. The temple is rectangular in shape with few star - like projections that add so much variety to the other temples of this period. The Parshwanath Temple has a porch on the east side that leads into the mandap and sanctum. There is also a projection on the west side, apparently added later, containing a small shrine. Third is the Adinath temple located on the right of the Parshwanath, is a beautiful - though small shrine. It is noted for its simple but well- ornamented 'Shikhar' (spire) and the three bands of sculptures on its semi-circular outer wall containing figures of Gandharvas and Kinnars and Vidyadharas, various Yakshas and Apsaras. The figures of Govadan (Gomukh) - the attendant Yaksha of Lord Risabhadev have been conspicuously carved-out. This temple has got the rare sculptures of sixteen Digambar Jain Vidyadevis with their 'Vahanas' (vehicles) and 'Ayudhas' (weapons) and the necessary 'Parikar' (background).

08/08/2018
Parshvanatha temple (IAST: Pārśvanātha Mandir) is a 10th-century Jain temple at Khajuraho in Madhya Pradesh, India. It is now dedicated to Parshvanatha, although it was probably built as an Adinatha shrine during the Chandela period. Despite the temple's Jain affiliation, its exterior walls feature Vaishnavaite themes. The entrance has an inscription with a most-perfect magic square. It is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site along with other temples in the Khajuraho Group of Monuments.

Jainism is a religion that prescribes pacifism and a path of non-violence towards all living beings. The purpose of life according to Jainism is to undo the negative effects of karma through mental and physical purification. This process leads to liberation accompanied by a great natural inner peace.

Khajuraho, India: The Eastern Group of Jain Temples
Once again, I apologize for consistently mispronouncing Khajuraho - kept putting a Khoo in it. What can I say...duh.
The Eastern Temple group is small and only two Jain Temples make it worth visiting. Parshvanatha Temple, built between 950-970 AD with beautiful sculptures on its exterior and Adinatha Temple, names for the first Jain Tirthankara,Adinatha. Some of the other temples are active while still more are in deplorable shape. It won't take you long to visit this area and from here, it was on to Orchha, the once capital of the Bundela Kings, One of the most powerful kingdoms in Central India.

A Visit to India - Part 19: Khajuraho - The Jain Temples
Saturday 3rd August
We got up early and walked to the Eastern Jain temples. It was so peaceful at about 7 am, before the touts got started. Lots of monkeys, cows, dogs and horses around and people pumping water from the wells. We saw a couple of small working temples along the way. Most people just wished us Namaste and didn't bother us. The Jain temples were worth a look. They were more Hindu than Jain and similar to the ones we saw the day before, but some of the carvings were better preserved.

Adinath Temple Khajuraho (Part 1)
As the name suggests, Adinath temple in Khajuraho in Madhya Pradesh is dedicated to Adinath the Jain saint. This is the last of Jain temples built around here. The temple is magnificently decorated with different sculpted figures including those of yakshis.
The Adinath temple is situated adjacent to the Parshvanatha Temple, which is the largest of all the Jain temples in Khajuraho. This Adinath temple has been partly repaired over the centuries. This temple is quite similar to the Hindu temples in Khajuraho. Though a Jain temple, it looks more or less like a Hindu temple owing to its architecture and designing. A black image inside the temple gives the indication of it being a Jain temple. The temple has very fine carvings on its 3 bands of sculptures.
Adinath temple is towards the north of the largest Jain temple, the Parshvanatha temple. It is a small temple; its 'shikhar' is simple with a graceful and elegant auspicious pitcher on the top of it. The temple's sanctum is simple as well and it seems that the altar had been built at some time later than the construction of the temple. The roof is constructed beautifully with lotus like stone, which adds to the beauty of the sanctum sanctorum.
