Namokar-Navkar-Mantra

This Application will help the user in reciting the powerful Ṇamokara mantra.The Ṇamokara mantra also variously referred to as the Navakar Mantra or the Namaskar Mantra or the Pancha Parameshti Namaskar, is the most important mantra used in Jainism.While reciting this mantra, the devotee bows with respect to humans who have cleared their karmas (arihants), fully liberated souls (siddhas), spiritual leaders (acharyas), teachers (upajjhayas) and monks.In this prayer there is no mention of any names, including that of the Tirthankaras. Jains do not ask for any favors or material benefits from the Tirthankaras or from sadhus and sadhvis. This mantra simply serves as a gesture of deep respect towards beings they believe are more spiritually advanced and to remind followers of the Jain religion of their ultimate goal of nirvana or moksa.
