Venkatesa
Ashtothara
(Sanatkurananthargatha)
Translated by
P.R.Ramachander
(Lord Venkatesa meaning the supreme one who
destroys sin is one of the very
popular Gods in Hinduism and specially in Vaishnavism. His great temple is
situated on the top of seven hills near Thirupathi(holy city) .Here is a
rare ashtotharam of that God. My spurce
only says that it is “Sanathkumaranthargatha”
. I do not know whether it was composed
by sage Sanathkumara , who was the son of Lord Brahma. This saint has been mentioned as one of the
saints waiting to get a Darshan of the Lord
in the famous Venkatesa Suprabatham.Though I searched for this ashtothara on
line I could not get it.)
