PARASNATH

This article appears in Volume V20, Page 798 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PAI-PAS
PARASNATH , a hill and
place
  of Jain
pilgrimage
  in British
India
 , in Hazaribagh
district
 ,
Bengal
 ; 4480 ft. above the sea; 18 m. from Giridih station on the
East
 
Indian
  railway. It derives its name from the last of the twenty-four Jain saints, who is believed to have here attained nirvana or beatific annihilation. It is crowded with temples, some of
recent
  date; and the scruples of the
Jains
  have prevented it from being utilized as a
sanatorium
 , for which purpose it is otherwise well adapted.
