JAIN ISBN 81-903639-7-2 Rs. 500/ Acārya Samantabhadra's Svayambhūstotra (circa 2nd century CE) is a fine composition in Sanskrit dedicated to the adoration of the Twenty-four Tirthankara, the Most Worshipful Supreme Beings. Through its 143 verses Svayambhūstotra not only enriches reader's devotion, knowledge, and conduct but also frees his mind from blind faith and superstitions. Rid of ignorance and established firmly in right faith, he experiences ineffable tranquility and equanimity. The book has two useful Appendices. Appendix-1 attempts to familiarize the reader with the divisions of empirical time that are used extensively in Jaina cosmology. Appendix-2 provides a glimpse of life stories, adapted from authentic Jaina texts, of the Twenty-four Tirthankara. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 335
