Parshvanatha is the 23rd and one of the most popular Tirthankaras in Jainism, and certainly the most visually striking. The 24 Tirthankaras represent Jainism's spiritual masters, who freed themselves from the chains of rebirth and departed our world. As such, they cannot be invoked through their statues, like the deities of Hinduism or Buddhism. Rather their effigies serve as reminders of the faith's tenets and rewards.
