ઉત્પત્તિ અને કથા

Traditional Vaishnava stotra (smriti / Pauranic tradition) · Traditional (anonymous) · Classical

This well-loved short stotra teaches the practice of constant remembrance (smarana) of God by assigning a specific name of Vishnu to each common situation of human life. By naming Vishnu in illness, food, sleep, marriage, travel, danger, fire, water, forest and death, it weaves devotion into every moment of daily living. Many of the sixteen names — Varaha, Narasimha, Vamana/Trivikrama and Rama — are the Lord's celebrated Dashavatara forms, linking everyday life to his cosmic descents.

શાસ્ત્રોમાં કહ્યા પ્રમાણે

It is traditionally said that one who keeps these sixteen names ready in the mind is guarded by the Lord in every danger — recalling Jalashayin in fire or Madhusudana in sudden crisis is believed to instantly summon Vishnu's protective grace.

ઉત્તમ સમયEarly morning immediately after waking and bathing (prātaḥ)

Recite the five verses soon after rising at dawn, ideally after a bath, facing east. Learn the sixteen names and their situations so they can be recalled instantly through the day — Janardana while eating, Madhusudana in danger, Narayana at the final hour, and so on. The stotra is short and meant to be memorized so that the appropriate name of the Lord springs to mind in every circumstance.

It is a short hymn that gives sixteen ('shodasha') names of Lord Vishnu, prescribing a particular name to remember in a particular situation — for example, Janardana while eating, Trivikrama while traveling, Madhusudana in danger, and Narayana at the time of death.
Vishnu, Janardana, Padmanabha, Prajapati, Chakradhara, Trivikrama, Narayana, Shridhara, Govinda, Madhusudana, Narasimha, Jalashayin, Varaha, Raghunandana (Rama), Vamana and Madhava — sixteen names, several of them Dashavatara forms.
The closing verse says they should be recited upon rising at dawn ('prataḥ utthaya'). Beyond that, each individual name is to be remembered in its specific circumstance — in fire, water, forest, battle, bad dreams, illness and so on.
The stotra declares that whoever recites them at dawn becomes freed from all sins ('sarva-papa-vinirmukta') and is exalted in the realm of Vishnu. It also keeps the mind continually turned toward God in daily life.
