Digamber - The word Digambara (Sanskrit) is a combination of two words: dig (directions) and ambara (sky), referring to those whose garments are of the element that fills the four quarters of space. Digambara monks. Monks of this sect reject all worldly possessions in order to live a totally ascetic life. Because they are allowed no possessions whatsoever they live without clothes and go "skyclad", which means naked. There are only about 500 monks practising this Digamber at this moment. I am lucky to have a glimpse of these monks in Shravanabelagola shrine which is the largest monolith statue the world. The 58-feet tall monolithic statue of Gommateshwara is located on Vindyagiri Hill
