Trimurti Teenmurti Digambar Jain Temple Inside Borivali National Park

“I had the opportunity to visit the Podhanpur Teenmurti Digambar Jain Temple, also known as Trimurti, in Mumbai’s Borivali National Park. This religious place is a significant Atishay Kshetra for the Digambar Jain community. The main highlight of the temple are the three enormous statues of Jain gods, ranging from 21 to 31 feet in height. However, there is much more to explore at this sacred site. Find below the details about how to reach, a lesser-known route, timings, pictures, address, and more..”

Mainly a sacred site frequented by Digambar Jains from Mumbai, a sub-community within the Jain community. If you enjoy lush greenery, tranquility, and being close to nature, this is the perfect destination. The Teenmurti Jain temple attracts families, picnic groups, and a handful of tourists during special events and festivals such as ‘Samvatsari’ and ‘Full Moon Day’, as well as for regular darshan and rituals.

Besides the community picnics and regular visits, this temple is accessible to everyone and is a stunning tourist spot located within the wild forest area of Mumbai’s only national park. Make sure to visit at least once during the monsoon season to witness the lush green surroundings, pollution-free climate, and peaceful atmosphere.

The main attraction for tourists are the 3 massive statues of Jain lords in Podhanpur Trimurti. These statues are of Lord Aadinath, Lord Bahubali, and Lord Bharata. The height of Lord Aadinath is 31 feet, while Lord Bahubali and Lord Bharata are both 28 feet tall. Despite the height difference, it’s hard to tell at first glance.

As you get closer to the statues by climbing some stairs, you are greeted by a large open area that offers a view of the Jain lords statues for DARSHAN (without clothes, which is a religious practice).

Reaching Teenmurti Temple

The Teenmurti Digambar Jain Mandir Atishay Kshetra is located near the edge of Sanjay Gandhi National Park. It is a slum village with a chawl and a small farm. To find the temple on Google Maps, you will be directed through Borivali National Park, as it is the only road route to reach the temple.

There is another way to reach the tourist attraction without incurring any additional costs for the National Park entry fees. If you only wish to visit the Jain temple inside the park and not explore the rest of the park area, you can save money by avoiding the entry charges. Just keep in mind that there is a check post with a guard outside the Jain temple gate, opposite the entry area from the village/shanties. This guard ensures that illegal movements to explore the park premises are not allowed, except for entry to the permitted Teenmurti temple.

The route begins at ‘Magathane Depot’ near Western Express Highway in Mumbai, just past the main entrance of Borivali National Park. I have highlighted key spots like the Bus Depot, Slum Area, Car Parking Area, Entry Location, and the Temple on the map photos for better clarity.

I am sure many still do not know of this route (See More Pictures & Map) and thgis could help (HEY, You can thank me with a Google Review at the end of this post).
