Shree Parasvanath Chalisa - Ja

श्री पार्श्वनाथ चालीसा - Shri Parasvanath Chalisa - Jain Chalisa Path

Parshvanatha also known as Parshva and Parasnath, was the 23rd of 24 tirthankaras of Jainism. He is one of the earliest tirthankaras who are acknowledged as historical figures. He was the earliest exponent of Karma philosophy in recorded history. The Jain sources place him between the 9th and 8th centuries BC whereas historians point out that he lived in the 8th or 7th century BC.

Parshvanatha was born 273 years before Mahavira. He was the spiritual successor of 22nd tirthankara Neminath. He is popularly seen as a propagator and reviver of Jainism. Parshvanatha attained moksha on Mount Sammeta (Madhuban, Jharkhand) in the Ganges basin, an important Jain pilgrimage site. His iconography is notable for the serpent hood over his head, and his worship often includes Dharanendra and Padmavati (Jainism's serpent god and goddess).

Chalisa is a spiritual form of a prayer in Jainism, in which there are forty verses in praise of the Great GOD. Chalisa of different deities are very popular among devotees and it is believed that a common man can get the blessings of his deity (God) by reciting the Chalisa with devotion.

Tirthankara’s are the saviour and spiritual teacher of the Jain dharma. ‘Tirthankara’ in Sanskrit means "Ford-maker" and also known as Jina that is "Victor". According to Jain scripture, a Tirthankara is a rare individual who has conquered the samsara, the cycle of death and rebirth, on their own and made a path for others to follow.

They are also called Arihantas, Jinas, Kevalis, and Vitrage. Arihant means "destroyer of inner enemies," Jina means "victor of inner enemies," and vitrage means "one who does not have any more attachment or hatred towards anyone." This means that they are totally detached from worldly aspects. They have destroyed the four Ghatiya karmas, namely Gnanavarniya Karma, Darshanavarniya Karma, Mohniya Karma, and Antaraya Karma.

Jains celebrate five major events in the life of a Tirthankara. They are called Kalyanak (auspicious events). They are:

1. Chyavana Kalyanak: This is the event when the Tirthankar's soul departs from its last life, and is conceived in the mother’s womb.

2. Janma Kalyanak: This is the event when the Tirthankar's soul is born.

3. Diksha Kalyanak: This is the event when the Tirthankar's soul gives up all his/her worldly possessions and becomes a monk/nun. (Digambar sect does not believe that women can become Tirthankar or be liberated.)

4. Kevaljnana Kalyanak: This is an event when Tirthankar’s soul destroys the four Ghatiya karmas completely and attains the Kevaljnana (absolute knowledge). Celestial angels set Samavsaran for Tirthankars from where he/she delivers the first sermon. This is the most important event for the entire Jain order as the Tirthankar reinstates Jain Sangh and preaches the Jain path of purification and liberation.

5. Nirvana Kalyanak: This event is when a Tirthankar’s soul is liberated from this worldly physical existence forever and becomes a Siddha. On this day, the Tirthankar’s soul destroys the four Aghati karmas completely and attains salvation, the state of eternal bliss.
