MADHWA · sloka · Vishnu

Sree Vishnu Shodasa Nama Stotram

Recite this sloka in the morning as soon as you wake up, would help you to get rid of sins and reach the vishnu loka at the end

Oushade Chinthaye Vishnum Bhojane cha Janardhanam
Sayane Padmanabham cha, Vivahe cha Prajapathim.

Yuddhe Chakradharam devam,Pravase cha Trivikramam
Narayanam Thanu thyage, Sreedharam priya sangame,

Duswapne smara , Govindam,Sankate Madhu sudhanam
Kanane Narasimham cha, Pavake Jalasayinam,

Jalamadhye Varaham cha,Parvathe Raghu nandanam
Gamane Vamanam Chaiva , Sarva Karyeshu Madhavam.

Shodasaithani Naamani,Prathar uthaaya ya padeth
Sarva papa vinirmuktho, Vishnu lokam samopnuyath.

Meaning:

Think him as Vishnu while taking medicine,

As Janardhana while eating food,

As Padmanabha while in bed,

As Prajapathi at time of marriage,

As Chakra dhara while engaged in war,

As Trivikrama while on travel,

As Narayana on death bed,

As Sreedhara while meeting with the beloved,

As Govinda while tossing with bad dreams,

As Madhu Sudhana while in trouble,

As Narasimha while in the forest,

As Jala Sayina while fire is ravaging,

As Varaha while struggling in water,

As Raghu nandana while lost in a mountain,

As Vamana while on the move,

And as Madhava while doing everything.

As soon as one wakes up in the morn,

If these sixteen names are read,

He would be bereft of all sins,

And reach the world of Vishnu at the end.
