Sammed Shikhar Tirth

Sammed Shikhar, also known as Parasnath, near Giridih, Jharjkahnd (200 miles from Kolkata) of India is a very special holy site for the Jains, as 20 of the 24 Tirthankars attained enlightenment at this site. The 4 Tirthankars who attained enlightenment elsewhere were Adinath (Kailash), Vasupujya, Naminath, and Mahavir.

Sammed Shikhar is on a 4,431 foot hill and includes many sacred meditation halls, amidst a natural and wildlife scenery.

Sammed Shikhar reminds all of those who take up this pilgrimage to engage their heart and soul and remember that meditation and spiritual efforts lead to enlightenment, and not the worldly life of materialism, ideology, and mind’s illusion.

Siddhayatan Tirth recognizes that the Tirthankars (special enlightened beings) attained moksha at this sacred site and thus will bring the spiritually transforming vibrations to Siddhayatan pilgrims.
