ಮೂಲ & ಕಥೆ
Traditional Vishnu dhyana shloka recited before the Vishnu Sahasranama and Vishnu worship · Traditional · Classical
This verse belongs to the set of dhyana shlokas chanted as a preface to the worship and recitation of Vishnu's hymns, notably the Vishnu Sahasranama. It evokes the image of the Lord reposing upon the Ocean of Milk, the cosmic abode from which He sustains creation, and is treasured for its serene, nectar-filled imagery that prepares the mind for meditation on Mukunda.
✦ ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಳಿದಂತೆ
Reciters of the Vishnu Sahasranama hold that beginning with this dhyana brings a felt sense of peace and coolness, as if standing in the nectar-laden air of the Milk Ocean, and that meditating on Mukunda's form here cleanses the heart even before the thousand names are sung.

ಅರ್ಥ:In the region of the Milk Ocean, on a shore gleaming with pure, radiant gems, seated upon a couch fashioned of pearls, His body adorned with pearls that shine like crystal jewels; overhead, bright and countless clouds arrayed above shower streams of released nectar — may that ever-blissful Mukunda, who holds the discus, lotus, mace and conch in His hands, purify us.

Kshirodanvat Pradeshe (Vishnu Dhyana) ಪಾರಾಯಣ ವಿಧಿ
Sit calmly and recite this dhyana shloka while visualising the scene it describes — Mukunda reposing on the pearl-strewn shore of the Milk Ocean, adorned like crystal, with nectar-raining clouds above. Use it as the meditative invocation before your main Vishnu mantra-japa or hymn recitation. Reciting it three times helps the image and a feeling of cool, blissful peace settle in the heart before worship continues.
