The Dhaikinath Buddhist stupa is found to the west of Gyaraspur. It was in ruins and is a much restored monument. It stands on a large platform and has four niches. These are now empty, but had a Buddha statue each. The damaged statues is now at ASI storage room for this site. A Buddhist inscription in a 9th to 10th century script found here helps date this site. This is notable as it is further confirmation that Buddhism was thriving in north Madhya Pradesh around the 10th century.
