== == In theory, Jains do not worship deities, they contemplate on the 24 Tirthankaras (a bit like Buddhas) such as Mahavira and Parshvanath. However, many ordinary Jains often pray to Hindu deities and a lot of Jain temples will often be decorated with images of minor Hindu deities such as Saraswati (the Hindu Goddess of learning).
