Parshvanatha, the 23rd Tirthankara in Jainism, holds a special distinction as the only one to be bestowed with the title of Kalikalkalpataru (Kalpavriksha) in the current age of Kali Yuga. Typically portrayed in a lotus or kayotsarga posture, depictions feature his head shielded by a multi-headed serpent, forming a protective umbrella-like canopy. The snake emblem, symbolizing Parshvanatha, is prominently carved or stamped beneath his legs, serving as a distinctive identifier in sculptures and paintings. His teachings continue to inspire a path of righteousness and spiritual awakening in Jain philosophy.
