Sri Gajendra Moksha Stotra is a story from the Srimad Bhagavat Purana. It relates the story of Gajendra (king of the
elephants) and his struggle to free himself for the deadly grip of a crocodile. More then just a story of an elephant and a
crocodile, it is about man, ego, selfishness and Maya (illusion). It is said that whoever will chant or listen to Sri Gajendra
Moksha Stotra will be endowed with success and happiness.
