47. Introduction People of Nadol city were suffering from plague created by an evil minded goddess. Agreeing to the request of the Jain community of the city, Shri Mänadeva Suri composed this hymn or sutra to get rid of the plague. Shri Mänadeva Suri was blessed by Padmä, Jaya, Vijayä, and Aparajita, the four goddesses. It is due to their mystic power the city was saved from the disaster created by the plague. In this hymn, Lord Shäntinätha is praised with many precious qualities.
