Oh Blessed Ones, when the Tirthankaras were born in these two and a half continents of Bharat, Airavat and Mahavidehakshetra, the thrones of Saudharma devas trembled, and Indra, because of his avadhi gyan (one of the five types of knowledge by which one can see what is happening everywhere), were all filled with joy and they rang the bell called Sughosha. All the Sur (a type of deva) and the Asur (another type of deva), and Indra rushed to the birthplace of the Jina filled with devotion. They picked up the Jina in their arms and took Him to the top of Mount Meru for the Janmabhishekh (a ceremony to celebrate the birth). Just as they get a feeling of joy in doing this, you too will attain peace by doing puja (worship), yatra (pilgrimage) and in listening to my words. (2)

By reciting Om, we felicitate the panch parmeshtis (the five venerable ones-- Arihants, Siddhas, Acharyas, Upadhyayas and Munis) on this most auspicious day. We praise the Tirthankaras, Lord of the three worlds, one who enlightens the three worlds, one who knows everything because of keval gyan
