Ancient great sages such as Kalikāla Sarvajña śri Hēmacandrācāryaji and Sri Haribhadrasūriji have composed hymns of praise -panegyrics etc. in Sanskrit and Prakrit languages.
Now, in the modern times also such classical musical devotional songs are composed. Recently, a few months ago, His Holiness Pannyāsa śri silacandravijayaji Mahārāja published 'Bhini Kșaņānā Vaibhava', a book of devotional songs composed by him in ancient diction, based on beautiful classical modes of music.
Showing the importance of this devotional music, sri jñānavimalasūriji says:
जिनवरबिम्बने पूजतां, होय शतगणुं पुण्य, सहस्रगणुं फल चन्दने जे ले ए ते धन्य । लाखगणुं फल कुसुमनी, माला पहेरावे, अनंतगणुं फल तेहथी, गीत गान करावे ।। iinavarabimbanē pūjatām, höya sataganum punya, sahasraganum phala candanē jēlē ē tē dhanya .
