The origin and significance of Vishnu Sahasranama are narrated in the Mahab= harata, one of the two major epics of India. According to the legend, after= the Kurukshetra war, Bhishma, the grandsire of the Pandavas and Kauravas, = was lying on a bed of arrows, waiting for his death. He was visited by Yudh= ishthira, the eldest Pandava and the rightful king of Hastinapura, who aske= d him for advice on how to rule the kingdom and attain peace and happiness.= Bhishma then taught him various aspects of dharma (righteousness), artha (= wealth), kama (desire), and moksha (liberation), and finally revealed to hi= m the Vishnu Sahasranama as the ultimate means to attain all four goals. 1000 Names Of Lord Vishnu In Telugu Pdf Download https://cinurl.com/2wGMBn Bhishma said that Vishnu Sahasranama was taught to him by Lord Krishna hims= elf, who is an avatar (incarnation) of Vishnu.

He also said that this stotram can remov= e all sins, diseases, sorrows, and obstacles in life, and grant wisdom, pro= sperity, fame, and liberation. He quoted a verse from the stotram that says= : "Dharmarthi prapnuyat dharmam artharthi charthamapnuyat / Kamanavapnuyat = kami prajanarthi chapnuyat prajam //", which means: "He who desires righteo= usness obtains righteousness; he who desires wealth obtains wealth; he who = desires pleasure obtains pleasure; he who desires progeny obtains progeny."
