Answer

In Jainism, “125 gatha” usually means a hymn or composition made of 125 verses. The most common reference is the 125 Gatha Stavan, a devotional Jain hymn associated with Upadhyay Yashovijayji Maharaj and mainly devoted to Shri Simandhar Swami. ( jainqq.org)

Explanation

“Gatha” means a verse or metrical line. So “125 gatha” is not one universal Jain term for every context; it usually points to a specific text or stavan that has 125 verses. Jain catalogues and references list it as a distinct devotional composition. ( jainqq.org)

Spiritual Understanding

This kind of stavan is used for bhakti—devotional remembrance and praise. In Jain tradition, such devotion supports reverence toward the Tirthankar and strengthens spiritual भावना. ( jainknowledge.com)

Takeaway

So, if someone says “125 gatha” in Jain context, they most likely mean the 125 Gatha Stavan, a Jain devotional hymn of 125 verses. ( jainqq.org)
