Ghanerao, Pali district, Rajasthan · 25.1963°, 73.5592°
A Shvetambara Jain temple near Ghanerao in the Pali district of Rajasthan, built in the tenth century in the Nagara style. It takes its name, the moustached Mahavira, from the moustache shown on its principal image.
What follows is the temple’s own traditional account, transmitted through liturgy and local memory. It is recorded here as tradition, not as attested history.
Rana Raj Singh I is said to have found a white hair on the idol's moustache; after the priest fasted three days the image revealed its moustache, which oozed milk when a hair was drawn, and the Rana became a devotee.
