PREFACE
Bhadrabahu Swami had immense reverence and connection from previous births with Parmatma Parshvanath and compassion for the society hence when an epidemic spreads in the area where he was residing his followers urge him to do something to relieve them from their sufferings. Shree Uvasaggahar Stotra was born out of compassion for the Society at large. Yug Diwakar Pujya Gurudev Shree Namramuni Maharaj Saheb experienced the magnanimity of this eulogy of Parmatma Parshvanath when He was saved from His death bed. Since then it has become His breath and He has accomplished the hymn. It is an eternal experience to hear the hymn in His resonating voice coming from His naval. Pujya Gurudev has imparted the knowledge of this powerful hymn to mankind in this book. Many people have benefited and accomplished impossible tasks by chanting this hymn with praise and dedication.
Your words have been a Guiding light... Your blessings has made it, just right... Thank You for this invaluable opportunity... enabling us present 'The Stotra' to the Community!
