    I want to naam jaap how can i do for parasnath

    6 months ago 108

    You can definitely do naam jaap of Bhagwan Parshvanath (Parasnath). Here is a very simple and proper way:

    ---

    1. Which naam to chant?

    For simple naam jaap, you can chant:

    “णमो श्री पार्श्वनाथाय नमः” “Namo Shri Parshvanathāya Namah”

    or even shorter:

    “नमो पार्श्वनाथ जिनेन्द्राय” “Namo Parshvanath Jinendrāya”

    Both mean: “I bow to Bhagwan Parshvanath, the Jina who has destroyed all karmas.”

    If you wish, you can also daily recite Navkar Mantra first, then do Parshvanath naam jaap.

    2. How to do the jaap (step by step)

    1. Time & Place

    - Best: early morning or evening. - Sit in a clean, quiet place facing a photo/idol of Parshvanath (if available).

    1. Posture

    - Sit in Padmāsan, Sukhasan or on a chair with straight back. - Join hands or keep them on your lap.

    1. Start with Navkar (optional but very good)

    - Slowly recite: “णमो अरिहंताणं… (full Navkar Mantra)” - Then begin Parshvanath naam jaap.

    1. Jaap Method

    - Close eyes gently, take 2–3 deep breaths. - Start chanting softly: - “Namo Shri Parshvanathāya Namah” or - “Namo Parshvanath Jinendrāya” - You can use a mālā of 108 beads, or just count on fingers, or fix a number in mind.

    1. How many times?

    - According to your capacity: 11, 21, 51 or 108 times daily. - Important is niyamit (regular) practice with shraddhā.

    1. Bhāv (inner feeling)

    - While chanting, remember: - “Prabhu, like you became free from anger, pride, deceit, greed – may I also walk on that path.” - Don’t ask only for worldly things; focus on: - shanti (peace), samyaktva (right faith), ahimsa (non‑violence), self‑control.

    1. After Jaap

    - Fold hands, bow mentally at the feet of Parshvanath. - Do a small prārthanā: “Prabhu, meri mithyātva, krodh, mān, māyā, lobh kam ho. Mujhe sadā dharmāchran ki shakti do.”

    ---

    3. Small daily routine (very simple)

    If you want a very short daily practice:

    1. 1 time Navkar Mantra
    2. 21 or 51 times “Namo Shri Parshvanathāya Namah”
    3. 1–2 minutes silent sitting, watching your breath, remembering Prabhu.

    Doing this daily with shuddha bhāv is more important than doing a lot once in a while.

    If you tell me what language/script you prefer (Hindi, English, Gujarati), I can write the exact mantra in that script for you to read easily.
