Dādābadī

Ajmer is the "samadhi sthal" (memorial resting place) of the first Dādā Guru, Jinadatta Sūri.

It is dedicated to the Dādā Guru Jinakushala Sūri, who attained Samadhi (the heavenly abode) in Deraur (now in Pakistan), prior to which he stayed at Malpura gathering followers.

It is believed that he appeared to one of those followers after his death to give him his insight and wisdom, while standing on a stone that still bears his footprint.

The dādābadī in Mehrauli, Delhi, is the place where the second Dādā Guru Manidhari Jinachandra Sūri ji was cremated.

[2][3] According to the legend, while on his deathbed, he told his followers that when he died the "Mani" (magic jewel) embedded in his forehead would fall out and should be placed in a bowl of milk.
