Shri Damodar Jineshwar Prabhu, the ninth Tirthankar of the last Chovishi, was asked by his devotee Samakiti and a devotee named Vratdhari Ashadhi, wanting to know how long he had to wander in the world, saying, 'Oh God! When and in what time will I be saved? ' Then that merciful Lord replied that 'In the coming Chovishi, in the fourth ara, there will be the 23th Tirthankar Shri Parshvanath Prabhu and you will become his Gandhar.
Knowing this fact, he was overjoyed. Ashadhi Shravak, who was very happy to hear this, realized that the future 23th Tirthankar Shri Parshvanath Prabhu would be his special benefactor, built his beautiful idol and honored him at the auspicious moment in the Jinalaya he built. Began to do.
Eventually, as he developed apathy, he left Grihasthashram and took up the character. He died of starvation and was born as an aviator in the heavens.

Knowing that his work has been accomplished, Nagraj addresses Nami-vinami who is going in a hurry.
Excellency! The splendor of the world is fleeting. The one who is preoccupied with it loses his continuity. You who are absorbed in worldly splendor do not forget the service of Lord Yugadidev and at the same time do not forget the worship of the idol which I give you more than Chintamani Ratna. Seeing the supernatural image in the hands of Nagraj, the two brothers looked at Nagraj with astonished eyes .Nagraj! One Lord is Aadinath and this other Lord? Namiraj spoke up.

At that time, Indra of Saudharma Devlok brought this idol to his temple and worshiped it forever.
When Prince Ramchandraji of Ayodhya went out for exile and reached Dandakaranya, Saudharmendra was worried about the vow of Darshan worship of Ramchandra and Sita, who were param jinbhaktas, when Saudharmendra Deva threw this divine idol of Paramatma Parshvanath Prabhu in a chariot with two gods. During the period of exile, Rama and Sita worshiped these Jinbimbos with Anera devotion.
When Ramachandraji's exile was over, Saudharmendra Dev brought this idol to his temple. For a long time Saudharmendra worshiped him. Saudharmendra re-established this divine idol in the seventh short named Kanchan Balanak of Girnar. There the Nagkumaradi gods began to worship him with devotion.
The story of the influence of this supernatural and divine idol as well as its history was heard by Nagraj Dharnendra at that time from a wise great man.
