(the arrow like chant of three names

 

Translated by

P.R.Ramachander

 


The Nama Traya Astra Mantra is a prayer that devotees chant for their well-being and protection from evil. This ancient Sanskrit mantra invokes the three different names of Lord Vishnu. It is one of the strongest barriers against all negative effects. Hindus from various sects chant this mantra for their daily well-being and also during special ceremonies.
