Tristutik
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tristutik is a sub-sect of shvetambar sect of Jainism. It is known as Agama Gachchha in ancient times. The 'Tristutik' Gachchha was reformed by Acharya Rajendrasuri.
As in the Tristutik' way of worship, there is only devotion to Jain Tithankar, they do not believe in worshiping other gods known as "devi-devata" like Padmavati, Bharava, Gantakarna, Manibhadra etc during the rituals like Pratikraman, Samayik, Bhaavanusthans. They respect them as extraordinary living beings and do remember and honour in special rituals of Derasar Pratistha, Big Pujas etc.
This sect of Jainism is also in the Murtipujaka deravasi division of Shvetambar.
