Elephant King Gajendra, is remembered for his extraordinary surrender to God. The great difficulty he faced in life and his eventual spiritual success are recorded and sung in India’s ancient historical texts (Puranas) for millions of years. His prayers when he was caught in a life and death situation is heart touching. It is said that regular recitation of this pastime, especially early in the morning, gives the reader & the listener a great spiritual merit. This pastime shows one that the Supreme and all-compassionate Lord will protect His devotees when they are in trouble when they take complete shelter of Him.
