What will I benefit by worshiping Simandhar Swami ?
Lord Mahavir would not listen to your prayers. As he is now a siddha, totally liberated and without a body. However, it is entirely a different matter when you invoke the current living Tirthankara. The one who is currently present has the supreme value. It is like money in the form of cash; cash is more useful. “This is the cash bank of Divine Solution!”. Liberation is only attained through the ones who are living and present.
