Samvatsari Pratikramana
Shri munisundarsuri is the author of this stavan. He is a disciple of Shri somsundarguru, who is the author of Gandhar-Vidya-Surimantra and who shines like the sun among the Tapagaccha sect. (14)
This sutra was composed by Munisundarsurishwar Maharaj to quell the troubles that were brought by Marki on the congregation of Delwada, near Udaipur. This stotra contains praises of Tirthankar Shantinath. As the name of the composer is mentioned in the 12th verse, the 14th verse is omitted. It also names the sixteen Vidyadevis and the twentyfour Shasandevis.
