Dasaratha Krutha Shani Stotram (or Dasaratha Proktah Shani Stotram) is a powerful hymn composed by King Dasaratha, the father of Lord Rama, in praise of Lord Shani. The stotram describes the formidable influence of Shani on gods, humans, animals, and nature, and seeks his blessings to remove suffering and misfortune caused by his malefic effects. Reciting this stotra with devotion, especially on Saturdays, is believed to reduce the hardships associated with Shani’s unfavorable planetary positions (like Sade Sati or Dhaiya) and bring peace, prosperity, and protection.
