Shri Digambar Jain Dharamshala – Madhuban
Tradition:
Digambar
Short history
Shri Digambar Jain Dharamshala, Madhuban was established to serve Digambar Jain pilgrims visiting Sammed Shikharji, the holiest tirth where twenty Tirthankaras attained moksha. Founded by Digambar Jain sanghs from Bihar and neighboring states, the dharamshala emerged as a disciplined resting place aligned with strict Digambar traditions. Over the years, as the number of yatris increased, the facility expanded gradually while maintaining simplicity and spiritual restraint. The dharamshala has long supported pilgrims undertaking the arduous hill yatra, providing a calm and spiritually focused environment that reflects the austere ideals of the Digambar path.
Trust details
The dharamshala is managed by a registered Digambar Jain Trust based in Madhuban, comprising senior trustees, scholars, and community representatives. The trust oversees accommodation, maintenance, and strict observance of Digambar maryada. Funding is sourced through donations, pilgrim contributions, and community seva. Trustees ensure that all services remain non-commercial and spiritually aligned. The trust also coordinates with local authorities and Jain organizations to manage peak pilgrimage seasons while preserving the sanctity and ecological balance of the Sammed Shikharji region.
