NAMOTTHUNAM

Inspired by Rashtrasant Param Gurudev Shree Namramuni Maharaj Saheb

Sarva Tirthankaro, Siddh Bhagwanto ki Stuti

• Namotthunam is a stuti, the Antim Mangal (final auspicious thread) of the Shree

  Aavashyak Sutra.

• Being egoless and fully surrendering oneself to the Prabhu is what we call ‘Namotthunam’.

• This sootra is known as, "THAV THUI MANGALAM", or "SHAKRASTAV", because the king of Dev, "Shakendra Maharaj", praises the tirthankar bhagwan.

• 1st Namotthunam - Siddh bhagwan

• 2nd Namotthunam - Arihant bhagwan

• 3rd Namotthunam - Gurudev

• It involves feelings of acceptance and surrendering oneself at their feet while striving to suppress the ego.
