Bhaktamar Stotra - by Acharya Mantunga - Hindi Anuwad
Bhaktamara Stotra is the most famous of the Jain Sanskrit Prayers
The name Bhaktamara is composed of two Sanskrit names, "Bhakta" (Devotee) and "Amar" (Immortal). So, it is said that by recitation of this Stotra, a person gets free from the worldly bonds, attains salvation, and hence becomes immortal.
According to legends given in several Jain texts, monk Manatunga was chained and imprisoned by the local King Bhoja. Manatunga composed his stotra (hymn) in the prison and after completion of each verse, a chain broke / a door broke and Acharya Manatunga was completely free when all the verses were finished.
