lekshmi_remesh 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2004 I remember hearing this Shloka (written by Poonthaanam Namboothiri - a great Krishnabhakta from kerala) in Sanskrit.It went something like ".... ya tvara gajarakshane mayyaarthe karunasindho ka tvara ko gatha hare.." I am not sure of the exact verse. can anyone help me out? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lekshmi_remesh 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2004 I found the sloka i was looking for. thought i would share it with everyone. it is part of a jagannatha sthothram. it goes :- "Ya tvarA Draupadithraane ya tvarA gajamokshane mayyarthe karunasindho sa tvarA ko gathaa Hare" isnt it a most wonderfully phrased plea??
