Kulpak ji and telangana lost digambar history Over 20 Jain inscriptions have been found at Kulpak. A manastambha with an inscription of 1125 AD has been found mentioning ‘Jaina basadi’ and Jain teachers of Meshapashana Gachcha of Kanurgana. Inscriptions suggest that the Kulpak was a major center of Kanur Gana of Mula Sangh , A 12th-century inscription found in the temple mentions Meghachadra Siddhantadeva, who entered sallekhana. There is a 151-line Kannada inscription issued by Someshvara III of Western Chalukya Empire in 1125 AD. The Meshapashana Gachcha (also referred to as Meshapashana-gachchha or Meshapashana-ganana) was a lineage or branch of Jaina teachers affiliated with the Kanurgana (Karnur-gana) in the Digambara Jain tradition, which was active in the 12th century AD in the Telangana region Many Digambar Jain idols and basadis in Telangana were gradually converted into the Shwetambar tradition over time due to the smaller population of the Digambar Jain community in the region. #jainism
