MAHASATI MADANREKHA
Nature is very strange. When it gave beauty, softness and smell to the rose, it also produced sharp thorns with it. It made woman the symbol of beauty, gentleness, good character, understanding for the responsibilities and the sacrifice, it also made thorns in the form of people greedy for the beauty. These thorns have become responsible for the troubles and pain for many.
Madanrekha was not only an idol of miraculous beauty but also the live goddess of good character and adventure. The king Manirath, greedy for her beauty becomes so much obsessed with her beauty that he kills his younger brother Yugbahu who was like his son. Madanrekha runs away in the forest alone to protect her character leaving behind the attachments for family, son, house and kingdom. She protects her character till the end facing troubles and fear at every step. To her the character is even more valuable than her life.
In jain katha literature Sati Madanrekha's (Mayanreha) character is very much in- spiring, popular and full of ideals. Politeness, intellegence, adventure, good character, responsibility, patience which can't be moved, and the most important thing the inner desire to give up everything to protect her character, all these ideals and inspirations are evident through the Madanrekha's life. Madanrekha is a live goddess to the women's strength. Her life story is very exciting.
In this book Madanrekha's character is painted in a very sensitive way on the basis of the ancient literature and Uttaradhyayan Sutra and the inspirator being the Shramansangh's head advisory minister and jain literature's scholar shri Suman muniji maharaj.
