What is the Vishnu Sahasranamam?
The Vishnu Sahasranaamam was composed by Shri Veda Vyasa.
In the Mahabharata, Bhishma Pitamaha spoke to Yuddhishtir the 1000 names of Lord Narayana, and it was put in its present lyrical form, thanks to the poetic genius of Ved Vyasa.
In this blog, i intend to give the English translation/meaning of the names of the Lord.
It is not my personal work, but what i have put together by reading from different sources.
As someone who is in the habit of reciting these 1000 names on a regular basis, being enlightened with their meanings was an eye-opener of sorts. i must say that am still in the learning process, but i wish to share what i do know with the people who come across this blog!
From my next post, by the grace of the Lord, i'll post the Sanskrit slokas with their English meanings.
