toes of one foot resting close upon the knee
of the other; and the right hand lies over the left in the lap. All are
represented exactly alike except that Par['s]vanatha, the twenty-third,
has the snake-hoods over him; and, with the Digambaras, Supar['s]va--the
seventh, has also a smaller group of snake hoods. The Digambara images are
all quite nude; those of the ['S]vetambaras are represented as clothed,
and they decorate them with crowns and ornaments. They are distinguished
from one another by their attendant _Yakshas_ and _Yakshi[n.]is_
as well as by their respective _chihnas_ or cognizances which are
carved on the cushion of the throne.

All the Jinas are ascribed to the Ikshvaku family (_kula_)except the
twentieth Munisuvrata and twenty-second Neminatha, who were of the
Hariva[m.]['s]a race.

All received _diksha_ or consecration at their native places; and all
obtained _j[`n]ana_ or complete enlightenment at the same, except
[R.]ishabha who became a _Kevalin_ at Purimatala, Nemi at Girnar, and
Mahavira at the Rijupaluka river; and twenty of them died or obtained
_moksha_ (deliverance in bliss) on Sameta-['S]ikhara or Mount
Par['s]vanatha in the west of Bengal. But [R.]ishabha, the first, died on
Ash[t.]apada--supposed to be ['S]atrunljaya in Gujarat; Vasupujya died at
Champapuri in north Bengal; Neminatha on mount Girnar; and Mahavira, the
last, at Pavapur.

Twenty-one of the Tirthakaras are said to have attained Moksha in the
Kayotsarga (Guj. _Kauesagga_) posture, and [R.]ishabha, Nemi, and
Mahavira on the _padmasana_ or lotus throne.
