Shatakoti Ram Naam Maha Yagna

In 1997, in the year of Golden Jubilee of India’s Independence, for the welfare of the Indian nation in particular and humanity in general, parampujya H.H. Shrimad Vidyadhiraj Teerth Shripad Vader Swamiji organised a series of Maha Yagnas during Dasara at Shri Ram Mandir – Mumbai, where thousands of devotees from all over the country participated.

Interestingly though this particular yajna was performed in a particular place, Shri Swamiji organised it in such a way that the young and the school going children as well as the old can participate sitting at their own home. All samaj bandhavas were encouraged to chant, write and submit “Koti” (one crore) likhita (written) form of Taraka Mantra “Shri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama”. It is believed that a calmness engulfs as one indulges in writing the taraka mantra bringing in more clarity of mind, tolerance and strength to withstand obstacles in life. Huge number of people wrote hundreds of note books in which thousands have chanted and written in their own handwriting the taraka mantra and arrived at the venue.

The enthusiasm of the devotees was so great that as against the targeted one crore, 23 crore mantras were inscribed by devotees. These are still stored in the form of structure in the temple.
