61. Boundless Indeed Is Its Glory
Hamirmal K. Shah (Sadadivala) 187, A/1, Mumbadevi Road, Bombay-400 002.
Right from my childhood, since last 62 years almost, I have been chanting mentally, in Mauna, the Navakara Mantra under any circumstance.
In my childhood days, there was abject povetry in the house. Due to want of money, I undertook Yatra on foot from Sadadi to Kesariaji.
At the age of 14, I came to Bombay and roamed here and there. Lastly, from 1939 to 1961, I was in service only at one place. In 1950, my younger brother Fatehhchand had Diksha. He is now Shri Krinkarasurishvarji.
In 1960, our circumstances totally changed. In 1972, under the influence of Dharma, I took a Sangha of 750 people from Bombay to Palitana. We could get constructed "Hamir-Siddhi-Bhavan" at Shankheshvar, a water-hut at the Thana Derasar, a block in the inn at Jinadattasuri in Dadavadi, a block for the residence of Shri Sangha in Parshvanath, name-plates at Rajendra Bhavan in Palitana and room etc. All due to the power of the Navakara Mahamantra.
Twice I have been saved in life from poison and murder. It is indeed impossible to describe the unique power of the Navakara Mahamantra in words fully.
