In Patan, a three-year-old child was playing on a high three-story roof terrace when he slipped through the railing and fell toward the stone courtyard below.
The Mother Cry of Navkar Mantra
Looking out the window, the horrified mother had no time to reach the child; she closed her eyes and screamed the Namokar Mantra from the bottom of her soul.
"The sincere cry of a mother’s faith activates the benevolent guardian spirits of the cosmos."
Landing Unharmed on the Stone Floor
The child landed gently on the stone floor as if placed down on a soft feather mattress, laughing and completely unharmed, without a scratch or bruise.
Jain Philosophical Significance & Moral Lesson
