Godiji Parshwanath (((ヒンディー語:श्री गोडीजी पार्श्वनाथ))) is the name given to several images of the Jain Tirthankar Parshwananth in India, and to the temple where it is the main deity (mulanayaka). Parshwanath was the 23rd Tirthankara who attained nirvana in 777 BCE. The original image, about 1.5 feet high, was at Gori in Tharparkar district of Pakistan.
