Answer

In Jain tradition, there is no single fixed mandatory number of times that the Bhaktāmar Stotra must be chanted for everyone.

Commonly, devotees chant it:

• Once daily with devotion and concentration
• 3 times, 9 times, or 108 times as a personal devotional practice
• During special sādhanā, some follow specific counts according to the guidance of a knowledgeable Jain guru or tradition

Explanation

The most important aspect is not only the number, but the bhāva — the purity of faith, devotion, humility, and concentration while reciting.

Bhaktāmar Stotra is traditionally associated with deep devotion toward Ādināth Bhagwan, the first Tirthankar. Many Jains recite it for spiritual upliftment, peace, removal of obstacles, and strengthening of right faith.

Spiritual Understanding

In Jain Dharma, chanting should help cultivate:

• Devotion toward Arihant Bhagwan
• Purity of mind
• Reduction of anger, ego, greed, and attachment
• Inner peace and spiritual focus

Takeaway

If you are beginning, chant Bhaktāmar Stotra once daily with proper pronunciation, attention, and devotion. If you wish to do a higher count, follow the guidance of your guru or family tradition.
