BACKGROUND: In 1875, an academician from Germany came to India, learned Sanskrit and translated all 48 Shlokas of Bhaktamar in German language. He was none other than the renowned philosopher, Professor Hermann Jacobi who contributed 22nd & 45th Vol. n utras) in Max Muller's 'Sacred book of East Series' (1 to 50 vols.). His work was admirable especially since he was foreign to the Indian culture and language. (Printed by Oxford University Press)
Prof. Hermann Jacobi's work was a great inspiration to the author and she urged Prof. O.P. Verma to translate this work in French. Prof. O.P. Verma, the Head of foreign linguistic department and retired head of History and culture (from RTM Nagpur University) spent three years translating the Stotras, Mantras, Ridhi Yantras and evidential stories in the French language. Professor reported that an inner transformation took place within him during the undertaking of this translation work.
Shlokas and mantras have been part of author's life since childhood. The author's mother would chant a particular shloka if anybody fell sick or was in times of danger and as a result his health recovered and things would fall into place appropriately. The author's interest in the healing powers of shlokas and mantras increased as she grew older.

My Story on Bhaktamar:
After completing my M.B.A., C.S. and Lead Assessor Course, something pulled her to take up this research in a scientific manner. She began going to a Hospice with the holy water of this Yantra & and the 45th shloka which claims to cure incurable diseases as stated in Bhaktamar to test the truthfulness behind the verse.
The case-studies taken up for her research brought out astonishing results which were endorsed by well known medical doctors in the field. After experimenting with the mantra and the 45th shloka in Hospice which says "We cannot cure you but only can take care of you"? the life of these terminally ill cancer patients got an extension of life, (2-3 months) who otherwise were alive for a week as shown by the records of Snehachal - a Palliative Care Centre, Medical Square, Nagpur.
The recovery of these terminally ill patients touched the author and gave her increased confidence and belief in the amazing effects of the chanting of the Mantras and Shlokas. Consequently she worked along with various doctors treating some very ill patients. The healing rate of these patients have been very successful. Dr. Ajay Omprakash Mehta, a well known, award winning Oncologist had certified the healing through the chanting of 45th Shloka (a cure of incurable disease) as follows:
Patients have benefited by this technique. It has strengthened their mental and physical health and helped in early recovery. I strongly recommend "Spiritual Healing" as a complementary therapy showing amazing results" (M. Jain, 2011, P.26).
Her Ph.D Supervisor, Dame Meher Moos inspired her to try and test the powers of other Shlokas as her next research project. If this would be successful, it would benefit people at large the public by drugless therapy. One of the millennium goals of UNITED Nations is Drugless therapy.
