A tanner’s cow did not give milk. On
looking for the reason, it was found that
the cow used to go and stand on a hill
and all her milk oozed out. The tanner
had various doubts but the could not
know the reason. At last when digging
was done on the hill, an idol appeared.
Shri Amar Chand Bilala of Basawa
(Jaipur) constructed a huge temple for
worshipping the idol. It is said that during
the excavation of the idol, many people
tried to lift the idol, but failed to budge it.
Later, the tanner had to be summoned to
shift the idol from the hill to temple, who
did it with ease. Since then, this temple
has come to gain immense significance
among the Jains.
