ReplyDeleteWho actually composed this beautiful stotra? Please inform me.
ReplyDeleteSir, I don't know. Perhaps it was Pandit Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar. I see a reference to Sri Ramakrishna, whom he revered very much and was his contemporary. Also Sri. Vidyasagar was the Principal of the Sanskrit College in Calcutta. I will find out.
