Four other Tirthankaras: Shantinatha, Parshvanatha, Neminatha and Mahavira are on separate petals in four directions. All these Tirthankaras are identified by their symbols (Lanchhanas). On other four separate petals are: Ambika, Sarasvati, Ganesha and an Acharya (a leader of mendicants). At the bottom of this pata are two small shrines with devotees expressing gratitude to Gautamasvami, the chief disciple (Gandhara) of Tirthankara Mahavira.
