This book presents a story from Srimad-Bhagavatam, one that has significant parlance to our life. It contains the story of Gajendra, a mighty tusker who had beseeched Lord Sri Hari to come to his rescue when he was unable to free himself from the clutches of a crocodile. It contains the ardent prayers of this devotee who had supplicated himself for the Lord's mercy. It is presented in the Sanskrit original, as well as in English verse along with the meaning and significance of each sloka.

The recitation of Gajendra Moksham is believed to help rid one of obstacles and problems, ultimately leading to the path of self-realisation.

The Lord Himself had said, in response to the prayers of Gajendra: "To those who offer Me the prayers that you have offered as they start their day, I shall bestow eternal residence in the spiritual realm at the end of their mortal lives."
