Vishnu Ashtotharam

Vishnu  Ashtotharam

Translated  by
P.R.Ramachander

(Lord Vishnu meaning the God who pervades   everywhere  is one  of the trinity of Hindu Gods who takes care   of the world. His heaven is called Vaikunta ( Some people believe  that his devotees go  to a heaven called   Go Loka.) With his wife Goddess Lakshmi   he lies down on    the serpent Adhisesha  which is floating  on the ocean of milk   . He rides on Garuda  , the son of Vinutha. He keeps Goddess  Lakshmi on his chest as Srivathsa. The Vaishnavas  a major sect of Hinduism    consider   him as their supreme God. Lord Brahma was born in the lotus flower    which grew from his belly  .  The God of love   is also his son. It is believed that  he has two more wives, the Goddess   earth and   Goddess  Neela Devi. The most famous of his two temples    are  Thirupathi (Where  he appears as Venkatesa) and Srirangam (where he  appears as  Sri Ranga Natha) .  Some of the other great temples dedicated  to him are Bhadrinath, Mukthinath, Kanchipuram ,  Guruvayur   and Trivandrum.It is believed   that he has taken nine  incarnations to protect  the world so far . It is expected    that he would be born as Kalki    in the future. There are also several  minor incarnations. Sage Narada , King Prahladha, King  Ambareesha , King Rugmadha etc   some of his great devotees. Ofcourse  he has very large  number  of Devotees   to each of his incarnations. He is believed   to hold , a conch, mace  , wheel and lotus flower  in his hands.)
