For Palitana navanu (99 yatra) the same 5 special chaityavandan are done that are done in a normal Shatrunjay yatra. They are at 5 places:

1. Jay Taleti (Siddhagiriraj / Shatrunjay Taleti)
2. Shri Shantinath Derasar
3. Rayan Pagla (Rayan tree)
4. Shri Pundrik Swami Derasar
5. Shri Adinath Bhagwan on Giriraj (main temple)

Below is the standard traditional set used by almost all Shvetāmbars for navanu. (Word‑order may vary slightly from pothi to pothi, but the bhāva is the same.)

---

1) First Chaityavandan – Jay Taleti (Shri Siddhagiriraj Yatra)

Place: Jay Taleti, at the bottom of Shatrunjay. Main special stavan / chaityavandan text (start lines):

• “Shree Shatrunjaya siddhakshetra, dithe durgati vāre;

Bhav dhari ne je chadhhe, tene bhavpar utāre.”

Then further gāthā like:

• “Anant siddhano ahe thhām, sakal tīrthno rāy;

Purva navanu Rushabhdev, jyāin thhavyā prabhu pāy.”

• “Surajkund sohamāno, kavadjakṣha abhirām;

Nabhirāya kul mandano, Jinvar karuṇ pranām.”

Stavan of Siddhagiri (done in same first chaityavandan):

• “Siddhachalgiri bhetyā re, dhanya bhāgya hamārā;

A giricarni mahimā moto, kaheta na āve pārā.”

• Refrain: “… Dhanya.”

Stuti of Shree Shatrunjay (short bhāva-stuti):

• “Shri Siddhachal mandan, Rushabh jinande dayāle,

Marudevanandana, vandan karu trankāl. Ā tīrth jani, purva-navanu var, Adishwar āvyā, jani lābh apar.”

In navanu, this whole first chaityavandan is recited at Taleti before starting the climb.

2) Second Chaityavandan – Shri Shantinath Bhagwan

Place: Shantinath Derasar on the way up.

Main special gāthā:

• “Shānti Jineshwar solamā, Achirasut vandō;

Vishwasen kul nabhomani, bhavijan sukh kando.”

• “Mrug-lanchhan Jin aukhun, lakh varas pramān;

Hatthinaur nayari dhani, prabhuli gun manikhan.”

• “Chālis dhanushāni dehdiā, sam-choras santhān;

Vadan padma jyu chāndalo, dithe param kalyān.”

Then usual chaityavandan avashyak‑sutra (Logassa, Jāti-smaran, Khamāsamana, etc.) are done as per your pothi; only the front part is special to Shantinath as shown above.

---

3) Third Chaityavandan – Rayan Pagla (Rayan Tree)

Place: Near / under the Rayan Pagla (Rayan tree) on Giriraj.

Main special gāthā (start):

• “E giri upar Adidev, Shree Shatrunjay sukhdayko;

Rayan rukh samosaryā Swāmi, purva navanu vārā re.”

Here you remember that Bhagwan Rushabhdev delivered sermons here purva‑navanu times, and you pray that by bowing here your mithyātva and paap karmas get destroyed.

Often pothis keep a short stavan after this, but the main identity line for this third chaityavandan is the above verse about “Rayan rukh samosaryā Swāmi, purva navanu vārā re.”

---

4) Fourth Chaityavandan – Shri Pundrik Swami

Place: Pundrikgiri / Pundrik Swami Derasar.

Main special gāthā (typical beginning):

• “Adishwar Jinrāy ni, Pundrik jas ujāgar;

Panch kodi munind sāth, jehā thhayo upkār.”

• It often continues with lines remembering:

“Chaitri Punamne dine, Pundrik giri par; Param sukhad samosaran, joiya munivar.”

Here the bhāva is:

• Pundrik Swami’s great tapasya and samyaktva,
• the crores of munis in samavasaran,
• and the mahima of this specific place on Shatrunjay.

Again, full text varies slightly, but every “Pundrik Swami no chaityavandan” will start with Adishwar–Pundrik‑mahima like above.

---

5) Fifth Chaityavandan – Shri Adinath (Rishabhdev) on Giriraj

Place: Main temple of Shri Adeshwar / Adinath on top of Shatrunjay.

Main special stavan / gāthā (common start):

• “Adidev Alveshru, panchasē dhanushni dehdi;

Vrushabh-lanchhan Jin vrush-dhāru, kāruṇyani pehdī.”

Other common lines (wording can change from pothi to pothi):

• Praise of Marudevi mata, Nabhirājā,
• description of Adinath Bhagwan’s form and
• strong prārthanā for moksha‑marg, samyaktva, and destruction of ghāti karmas.

This is considered the main and last chaityavandan of the 5, and in navanu it is full of bhāva that: “As Prabhu climbed this Giriraj purva‑navanu times and gave deshnā, in a tiny way I am following that path.”

---

Digambar / Shvetāmbār Note

• Shvetāmbār Murtipūjak tradition of navanu in Palitana uses almost exactly the texts shown above (with minor word variations).
• Digambar pilgrims also do 5 chaityavandans at these same five sthans, but:

- They generally use their standard Digambar Chaityavandan / Panch Paramesthi–stuti, - and some separate Digambar pothis have their own Shatrunjay‑specific gāthā. - Exact wording differs, but the bhāva and tirth‑mahima is the same.

Important point for Navanu

For navanu there is no separate ‘navanu‑only’ chaityavandan text. You do these same 5 chaityavandans every time you go up, with:

• ekāsan / tap as per your vrat,
• avashyak‑sutras as you normally do chaityavandan,
• and these special Shatrunjay gāthā at the respective spots.

If you need, you can copy the opening lines from above and get the full exact text from a local “Shri Shatrunjay Giriraj Yatra – Five Chaityavandan” pothi or from your Pathshala; that will ensure you have the complete, traditionally correct version for daily use.
