Chhah Dhala, one of the greatest scriptures of Digamber Jains, had been written by Pandit Daulat Ramji. It holds such a strong rapport in Jain community that it has been named “Gaagar Mein Sagar” symbolizing ocean inside a small vessel, which means the summary of entire Jain mythology lies inside Chhah Dhala.

Chhah Dhala(chahdhala), as the name suggests, has been divided into six parts called dhals. Each dhal has a different subject matter to discuss. This app plays the audio for First dhal of Chhah Dhala, the subject matter of which is “Chaturgati ke Dukh”. It also displays the entire dhal, one chhand at a time, synchronizing the text along with the chhand being played on audio. It also has a provision to provide meanings to all the chhands of dhal in both audio and video format.
