The Varaha image of Aphsad is just as grand and significant as the one at Eran. The Earth goddess is depicted as a female figure, with sages in adoration carved onto the body. This image once adorned the 7th-century Vishnu temple built by Adityasena.

One of the oldest, perhaps the oldest, British cemeteries in Bihar is located in Patna City and it reminds of the Patna Massacre ordered by the Nawab of Bengal Mir Qasim, son of Imteyaz Khan Khalis. It is still in use and thus in a better condition #Patna #British #Cemetary

The "Rama in Jainism" Wikipedia page has this image of Rama, Lakshmana, and Sita with Jain acharya Yugal-charan (from the Swarn Jain temple in Gwalior). Does anyone know more about this episode and which Jaina manuscript mentions it? 🪷JR

The final stage! A bookbinder at work, surrounded by his tools. Watercolour painted by an artist based at Kolkata, or perhaps Murshidabad or Lucknow (the artists were moving around a lot), some time between 1798 and 1804. British Library (Add.Or.1111)
