About this stotra

Rama Bhujanga Prayata Stotram is attributed to Sri Adi Shankaracharya and composed in the bhujanga metre whose rhythm glides like a serpent's movement. The hymn praises Sri Rama as the purest existence-consciousness-bliss, the Lord enthroned in the devotee's heart, destroyer of sin, and refuge at life's final hour.

This edition presents the twenty-nine-verse recension found in standard sources, with Devanagari, IAST, and editorial focus notes for contemplative study.
