Jwalamalini temple, Jain temple in Simhanagadde, Narasimharajapura, India
The Jwalamalini temple contains an eight-handed deity statue seated in Sukhasana posture upon a buffalo pedestal with Kannada inscriptions on its base.
The temple dates to the Vijayanagara period and stands as one of the 11 remaining Bhattarak locations in Karnataka, connected to the Yapaniya sect.
The temple maintains the chaturvidha dana tradition, encompassing four categories of charitable giving according to ancient Jain principles of generosity.
Visitors can access the temple through regular bus services from Shimoga and Birur, with auto-rickshaws available from Narasimharajapura Bus Station for local transport.
The temple location was selected after a spiritual leader discovered a place where a cow and lion coexisted, fulfilling a prophetic dream.
