Slokas made easy for beginners.

iPrarthana is a convenient and intuitive resource compiling more than 35 slokas for your easy learning and access. As Hindus spread all over the globe further away from their spiritual roots, it’s becoming harder for those who want to reconnect with their roots to do so. Prayer books are not widely accessible, but an iOS device is always handy, and iPrarthana aims to provide those who want to be more closely connected to their spiritual roots with the means to do so. The app also exists as a tool for parents to teach their children fundamental slokas, with the clear categorisation of slokas by deity, as well as the ability to view them in both English and Sanskrit, allowing for easy and intuitive use of the app whatever your needs may be.

The founding concept of iPrarthana remains, however, to bring you slokas on your iOS device, something always available at a moment’s notice, and to make praying in general a more accessible, interesting and fulfilling experience.
