Śrī Jānakī Stuti by Śrī Añjanēya Svāmi is a timeless and profoundly beautiful composition dedicated to the Supreme Primordial Mother.
Much like the Śrī Devi Aparādha Kṣamāpaṇa Stotram, this stuti serves as a heartfelt means of seeking forgiveness. However, its essence goes beyond that—it facilitates complete surrender while invoking kṣamā (forgiveness), one of the most precious gifts granted to a seeker, both as a jīva and as a bhakta.
This invaluable composition is attributed to the Unsung Guru,
Śrī Hanumān Ji, also known as Śrī Añjanēya Svāmi,
whose life epitomizes surrender to one's chosen deity (iṣṭa-devatā).
Śrī Hanumān Ji's unwavering devotion to Śrī Rāma and Śrī Sītā stands as an eternal guide for seekers on the path of devotion.
The Śrī Jānakī Stuti is not merely a hymn in praise of Mā Sītā; it reveres the Śrī Devi who manifested as Śrī Janaka Nandinī, the divine Śrī Sītā.
She is also none other than Mā Vandevī.
This stuti, imbued with the spirit of humility and surrender, teaches us not only to revere the divine but also to seek forgiveness and grace.
In doing so, it allows seekers to walk the path of devotion, guided by the light of Śrī Hanumān Ji's devotion and the all-encompassing compassion of Śrī Jānakī Mā.
