History

Devikot pillar inscription of V.S. 1501 (=1445 AD)

Times of India, Jaipur, 29.6.2025

A new pillar inscription discovered in Devikot area of Jaisalmer has provided evidence that Phalodi was indeed founded by Siddhu Kalla, who was previously mentioned in literary source, such as the 17th century text, such as Marwar Ra pargana Ri Vigat by Muhnot Nainsi. The inscription dates itself to maghsudi panchami V.S. 1501 (=1445 AD), and mentions Siddhu Kalla of Phalodi, his father Harpal and his two sons Jena and Kheto. The inscription was found at village Asanikot of Pushkarna Brahmans in Jaisalmer, near the Ashapura Devi Oran in Devikot village. (Vimal Bhatia, Times of India, Jaipur, 29.6.2025)

In ancient Jain Records

Its ancient name was Phalarddhi (फलर्द्धि)/Phalavardhika (फलवर्धिका). The Jaina sources Tirthamala Chiatyavandana write - जीरापल्लि फलर्द्धि पारक नगे शैरीसशंखेश्वरे. There is a Jaina temple built before 12th century. [1] It was also called Phalavardhika (फलवर्धिका) in Chauhan dominions (S.N.216). According to Jinaprabha's Vividhatirthakalpa (p.105), There was a Vira temple at this place. The Parshva temple was considered very Sacred in Jinaprabha's time and its original icon was broken by Muhammad of Ghur in 12th century. The earliest inscription from this place is V.S. 1221 (1164 AD). Another epigraph has no date but mentions temple of Parshva.[2]

Jain History

Phalodi (Merta Road): Phalodi is a famous Jain Tirth where several Jain monks are said to have attended Moksha. The Vividh-tirtha-Kalpa describes this town as a Tirth of Parshwnath. Dharmaghosh Suri had a temple built there. But he could not retain his influence for long. Soon afterwards the town became a center of Kharatara Gachchha Padma-Prabha, a powerful Chaitya-Vasi saint of the town was defeated in religious discussion by Jin Pati Suri of Kharatara Gachchha held in the court of Prithviraj Chauhan at Narena in VE 1239. The temples built their during the Chauhan period were mostly demolished. On the basis of fragments of Inscriptions dated VE 1221, we learn that a Chitrakuta-sila-patta was installed there. The Mulanayak icon of Parshvanath was demolished by Mohammed Gauri in 1178 AD. It was later on repaired during the 15th century AD. Hemraj Surana had to repair it again. The inscription engraved by him has been lost but it has been edited by Vinay Sagar on the basis of a Ms copy. The temple of Brahmani Mata here is also quite old. An inscription of the 10th century AD discovered from this town was edited by Sri Nahta.[3]
