|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||
My
humble salutation to supreme Lord Vishnu who has thousands of sacred names
which provides abundance of meritorious rewards to whoever recites the same
repeatedly, some of the most significant twenty eight names of Lord Keshava/who
has attractive curly hair locks, and his various incarnations such as Mathsyam/protector
of Veda, Koormam/while churning the milky ocean for nectar of immortality,
Varaham/wild boar for retrieving the mother Earth from the clutches of demon,
Janardhanam/provider of salvation, Govinda/savior of cows and destroyer of
sorrows, Pundarikaksham/who has the eyes like lotus flowers, Madhavam/consort
of Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi, Madhusoodhanam/slayer of demon Madhu,
Padhmanabham/who has lotus flower on his belly, Sahasraksham/who has thousands
of eyes, Vanamalim/who is decked in garlands made of flowers from woods,
Halayudham/who carries the weapon plough/hala, Govardhanam/ who raised the
mountain Govardhana, Hrishikesham/who has perfect control over senses, Vaikundha/who dwells in the abode Sri
Vaikundham, Purushoththamam/flawless among men, Vishwaroopam/who has
magnificent colossal form which is all pervading in the Universe, Vasudevam/son
of Vasudeva, unconquerable, great illusionist, Ramam who has attractive persona personified
to reduce the burden of Earth, Lord Narayana/seated on the water and resting
place of all the living beings at the
time of deluge, Hari/who is the destroyer of sins, Dhamodharam/who was tied
into mortal pastel by Yasodha, Sridhara/who is the symbol of wealth and carries
Goddess Sri on his chest, Vedanga/who is the essence of sacred Vedas and
scriptures, Garudadhvajam/who has the flag that carries the symbol of
Garuda/king of the birds, he is Anantha/eternal and endless, he is Krishna/dark
complexioned, he is Gopala/savior of cows and cowherds.
Whoever

freed from all kinds of perils, it provides abundance of meritorious rewards
includes offering crores of cow as charity, performance of hundreds of
Ashwamedha Yagam, and thousands of Kanyadhanam/performance of marriage of girl
children to deserving bride groom. Whoever
recites the above sacred hymns during the hours of dawn, noon and dusk on the
propitious days of Amavasya, Pournami and Ekadashi would be freed from all
kinds of sins.
