    Mantra to chant for Lord parshwanath

    12 months ago 866

    Here are the most authentic and widely accepted chants for Bhagwan Parshvanath:

    1) Uvasaggaharam Stotra (devotional hymn dedicated to Parshvanath)

    • First stanza (transliteration):
    “Uvasagga-haram pāsaṁ, pāsaṁ vandāmi kamma-ghaṇa-mukkaṁ; Visahara-visa-ninnāsaṁ, maṅgala-kallāṇa-āvāsaṁ.”
    • Simple meaning (arth): I bow to Lord Parshvanath, who is free from all karmic bondage, destroys the poison of all afflictions, and is the abode of auspiciousness and welfare.
    • This stotra is traditionally recited for removal of obstacles, fear, disease, and distress.
    • Reference: | Easy overview/vidhi: | Meaning/explanation:

    2) Simple Parshvanath Namaskar (nama-mantra)

    • “Namo Śrī Pārśvanāthāya” or “Namo Pārśvanāth Jinendrāya.”
    • Meaning: O Lord Parshvanath, I bow to you (the Conqueror who has destroyed all karmas).

    3) Navkar (Namokar) Mantra (supreme Jain mantra, recited for all Tirthankaras including Parshvanath)

    • “Namo Arihantāṇam, Namo Siddhāṇam, Namo Āyariyāṇam, Namo Uvajjhāyāṇam, Namo Loe Savva Sāhūṇam.”
    • Meaning: I bow to Arihants, Siddhas, Acharyas, Upadhyayas, and all Sadhus; this purifies the soul and supports every specific devotion, including to Bhagwan Parshvanath.

    How to chant (simple guidance)

    • Purity of intention, non-violence in conduct, and steady attention are essential.
    • Common counts: 8, 21, 108, or 1008 times as per capacity and vow (anushthan).
    • Morning or evening is ideal, but sincere chanting at any time is beneficial.
    • For full text of all stanzas of Uvasaggaharam and practice details, see:

    Notes on traditions

    • Both Śvetāmbara and Digambara traditions revere Uvasaggaharam Stotra to Bhagwan Parshvanath. Minor textual/pronunciation variations exist, but the essence and purpose are the same: surrender to Parshvanath and removal of obstacles, with emphasis on right faith and conduct.
