ⲹś (सर्वयश�) is the mother of Anantanātha according to Digambara (but she is named Suyaśā according to Śvetāmbara), according to the Ācāradinakara (14th century work on Jain conduct written by Vardhamāna Sūri). Anantanātha is the fourteenth of twenty-four Tīrthaṅkaras in Janism. A Tīrthaṅkara is an enlightened being who has conquered ṃs (cycle of birth and death), leaving behind him a path for others to follow.

The husband of ⲹś is Siṃhasena. It is an ancient Jain practice to worship the Tīrthaṅkara’s parents in various rites, such as the پṣṭ屹.

context information

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
