Sumati-Jñāna लहिय सो सिध्दि सोक्खाइं वर माणणं, कुणइ कम्मिमधरं पुंज पज्जालणं
It was the period of Naminath, the 21st Jina when these text were written and the Finds were swallowed by earth under some severe Natural calamity which repeatedly came to swallow Dwarika in the period of Neminath presumably. Work of S. K. Mitra and Heinz Mode brought a new important seal to light which indicates about the period of its designing to be Pre-Vedic and also signifies the belief of the Indus Volk. It is round in shape with beautiful designs filled inside the design. Showing its period as earlier to Arishtanemi, the 22nd Tirthankara of the Rigveda the center of the design shows three temple peaks with box in or the Garbh-graha, inside which are posted the 21 bold dots denoting the worshipped deities with three streaks / left free (for future to be filled) and the Garbhgraha is closed. The Temple peaks carry three dots atop signifying the Ratnatraya, while the Garbha Graha is surrounded by the designs of loops, three in the first half and four in the other half, where the background differs. . The first half with three loops has columnar background while the second half with four loops has the granular background. The two halves of the seal thus signify the third and the fourth time phases of this Awasarpini when as per Jain scriptures the Tirthankaras were born. The three gaps suggest the then future Tirthankaras, Nemi, Parsva and Mahavira that being the period of Naminath, the 21st Tirthankara in view of the Indus people. The seal appeared to me very important and thus 'The Harappan Glory of Jinas' was written in 2001 based on the Find of Mitra and Mode interpreting some of the seals.
