Arahanthgiri Jain Math is a Jain Matha established near Tirumalai in August 1998.[1] The Math is headed by Bhattaraka Dhavalakeerthi.[2][3]

History

[edit]

History of Arahanthgiri Jain Math starts from the period of 322–185 BCE as the Last 'Shrutkevali' Bhadrabahu stayed there to practice meditation and "Swadhyaya" along with 8000 other saints. The Village Thirumalai where this Jain Math is located is also known as Arhatsugiri or Arihantgiri.[4] This more than 2,000-year-old temple is near Tirumala. The complex is now managed by the Archaeological Survey of India.[5][6]
