The effect of the Namaskara Mahamantra defies all description. Even in the Kaliyuga, it will yield the desired reward if chanted in a faith. Several experiences have enhanced and also enriched my faith. I narrate here just a few. Shri Navakara puts an end to physical ailments
In my younger days as a householder, I stayed, at the Shrimad Yashovijayji Jain Pathshala for studies. Then I had sickness. Doctors started treatment, food was stopped, the diagnosis was T. B. I had to maintain my life only on fruits and milk. The relatives got worried. Doctors had declared in confidence : "The case is hopeless, there is no ch ice of recovery." Slowly at last the information reached me. I was shocked for a while : "Shall I meet death? No, I don't want to die." What to do? The doctors were helpless.
Just then it was that the Navakara struck my consciousness. I accepted its refuge, laid down my life at its feet, gave up all medicines and continued with the Japa of Navakara, day and night. I also resolved to take to initiation if I recovered.
Really the Navakara created a miracle. The disease disappeared to the surprise of the doctors. The Navakara gave new life to me. I took to initiation as per my resolution. 46 years have passed since then.
