Two hundred years ago Bhagwan Swaminarayan told one of His paramhansas, Shatanand Muni, to write a stotra (verses) that, on chanting, would protect His devotees from evil influences, fear and obstacles. Thereafter, Shatanand Muni described Bhagwan Swaminarayan’s glory and virtues in 108 names. Each name refers to the power and qualities of Bhagwan Swaminarayan. His work is known as the Janmangal Stotra or Janmangal Namavali. The Janmangal Namavali is the essence of 1008 names of Bhagwan Swaminarayan called Sarvamangal Stotra, also written by Shatanand Muni.

Purpose of Chanting-

Shatanand Muni mentions that besides dissolving personal fears and problems the chanting of Janmangal Namavali will also help an aspirant realise dharma (morality), arth (wealth), kam (desires) and moksha (liberation) in life. Whosoever devotionally chants or listens to the Janmangal Namavali will be absolved of all sins. An aspirant also achieves his wishes by chanting the Janmangal Namavali with devotion and glory ten times each day.

Brahmaswarup Shastriji Maharaj and Brahmaswarup Yogiji Maharaj prescribed the chanting of Janmangal Namavali for the accomplishment of any task. Today, Pramukh Swami Maharaj chants the Janmangal Namavali at the end of his daily puja for the happiness and spiritual progress of sadhus and devotees and for peace in the world. On Swamishri’s instructions the Janmangal Namavali is chanted during the weekly satsang assemblies by hundreds of thousands of devotees throughout the world for the completion and opening ceremony function of Akshrdham.
