From the Vishnu Sahasranamam, 1000 names of Maha Vishnu do you know which line to chant for corresponding Nakshatra?
In the Anushasana Parva of Mahabharata, Veda Vyasa explains Vishnu Sahasranama which was advised to Yudhishtira by Bhishma Pitamaha.
Shri Krishna advices Yudhishtira to learn Dharma from Bhishma Pitamaha who was lying in arrow bed. Thus in front of Veda Vyasa, Krishna and other Pandavas, Yudhishtira asks Bhishma many doubts :-
- Kim ekam daivatam loke?
- Who is the deva of universe?
- Kim japan muchyate jantur janma samsaara bandhanaath?
- By chanting whose name, do we get out of the cycle of birth & death.
Bhismacharya answered these by “Jagat prabhum deva devam anantam purushothamam, Stuvan naama sahasrena purusha sathathothithaha“.
- After mentioning Narayana is one & only Supreme protector, advices 1000 names of Shri Hari. Later Veda Vyasa with the help of Sahadev notes down this.
Chanting Vishnu Sahasranamam can cure any diseases. It also prevents fear, reduces quarrels in the family.
This is a protective shield to children. If anyone finds difficult to chant whole Sahasranama at least they should chant this श्रीराम राम रामेति रमे रामे मनोरमे सहस्रनाम तत्तुल्यं राम नाम वरानने (Chanting the name of Shri Rama 3 times is equivalent to chanting whole Sahasranama).
