Tradition
Left unstated deliberately. Shirpur has been the subject of a long-running dispute between Digambar and Śvetāmbara claimants, litigated for decades. We are not going to settle that on a directory page, and asserting either would be taking a side. Ask locally before you plan a visit around a particular form of worship.
