This phrase refers to a specific document format (“pdf”) containing a religious devotion practiced by Christians. The devotion, known as the Stations of the Cross or Way of the Cross, is presented in the Malayalam language. It typically outlines the events of Jesus Christ’s passion and death, divided into fourteen distinct stages or “stations,” each accompanied by prayers and meditations. As an example, such a document might detail each station with corresponding scriptures and reflections in Malayalam script.
The availability of this devotion in a portable document format offers significant advantages. It allows for easy distribution and accessibility on various devices, including computers, tablets, and smartphones. This facilitates personal or communal prayer and reflection, particularly for Malayalam-speaking Christians who seek to engage with this traditional Lenten practice. Historically, these devotional materials were often available only in printed form, limiting their accessibility.
