Book Description
About the Book
There is a prevalent misconception that Vishnu Sahasranama caters to only certain beliefs and believers like Vaishnavites; in other words, that it is sectarian and is taboo for others like Saivites, Skandas, Sourahs, Shakthas, Ganapathas, etc. Will a Saivite admit that his Shiva is not omnipresent and all-pervading? If his answer is an emphatic 'No', then the Sahasranama applies to him as much as to the Vaishnavites. This argument holds good for the worshippers of all other aspects of Divinity. The Sahasranama is haphazard collection of words jumbled together, but it is a continuous stream of thought arranged in proper sequence, one word being chained to the other. explaining, completing or complementing the other. In certain contexts, if one is not able to form continuous thread, the inability is due to one's own ignorance rather than to any faulty construction. A more enlightened person will tread his way clearly in the supposed maze. a Almost identical ideas scattered in the Sahasranama are collected and collated to form several compact themes which prove, that the Sahasranama is not a haphazard narration of words, though for a cursory reader it might strike so, but a methodical and orderly construction, It is interesting and satisfying to observe that each theme presented by the Sahasranama is invariably perfect and when it concludes or reaches its climax, one will find that the last word on the subject has been said and established.

Preface
There is scarcely a Brahmin who does not daily recite Vishnu Sahasranama. At least that was so tillM about two, decades back. In spiritual Sadhana, next to Sandhya, stands Sahasranama. One may not have known nor has. been instructed about the Geetha, much less-. about the Vedas, but the Sahasranama one knew by heart. While still a small boy, either his grand-father, father or brother leadingly recites and he follows. Rarely h memorizes from a book. Our wise ancients have known, and felt the spiritual significance of the Sahasranama and it has come down to us traditionally. This tradition has been, with us no doubt, but whether we are aware of its spiritual import is the question. In answer to this self-imposed question and to open our eyes, if they had been shut, to the depth of the Sahasranama, a humble and small attempt is made in these pages. This is no Bhashya. It is preposterous for the writer to attempt one. If he were to do so, it will be like a cripple's attempt to climb the Himalayan cliffs.
