(Padma Purana, Uttarakhanda)
(Vishnu Sahasra naama Stotram is a sure means of ‘Paapa Vimochana’. It clears all difficulties; enhances quality of Life; keeps conscience clean; fulfills desires; keeps away poverty, diseases, and natural disasters; secures from thieves, snakes, cruel animals and evil spirits; brings in recognition and name; accords the Punya of Yagna, Tapa, Daana, Vrata and Tirtha Yatras; and finally acts as a unique ladder to Salvation)
Naasti Vishnoh Paramdhama Naasti Vishnoh Param Tapah,
Naasti Vishnoh Paro Dharma Naasti Mantro Hyavaishnavah/
Naasi Vishno Param Satyam Naasti Vishnoh Paro Japah,
Naasti Vishnoh Param Dhyanam Naasti Vishnoh Param Gatih/
Kim tasya Bahurbhi Mantraih Shastraih kim Bahu vistaraih,
Vajapeya Sahastrairva Bhakriryasya Jannardaney/
Sarva Tirthamayo Vishnuh Sarva Shastramayah Prabhuh,
Sarva Kratumayo Vishnuh Satyam Satyam vadaamyaham/
(There is no better ‘Parama Dhama’ than Vishnu, no better ‘Tapas’ than Vishnu, no better ‘Dharma’ than Vishnu, no better Mantra than Vishnu, no better Truth than Vishnu, no better ‘Japa’ than Vishnu, no better ‘Dhyana’ than Vishnu, no better ‘Gati’ or route than Vishnu! Are there many other Mantras, Shastras, Vajapeyas, Tirthas or Kratus? In the final analysis, it is all about Vishnu, Vishnu and Vishnu alone!) |
