ଉତ୍ପତ୍ତି ଓ କଥା
Vishnu Sahasranamam (opening dialogue), Mahabharata, Anushasana Parva · Sage Veda Vyasa (as spoken by Bhishma) · Itihasa / Mahabharata era
After the great Kurukshetra war, the patriarch Bhishma lay mortally wounded on a bed of arrows, awaiting the auspicious time to leave his body. Yudhishthira approached him with questions on the highest truths. In response to 'Who is the one God, and what frees a being from rebirth?', Bhishma taught the Vishnu Sahasranamam, declaring the praise of Vishnu's thousand names to be the supreme dharma. This dialogue forms its invocation.
✦ ଶାସ୍ତ୍ରରେ କୁହାଯାଇଥିବା ପରି
It is traditionally held that anyone who hears or recites the Vishnu Sahasranamam, introduced by this very dialogue, is freed from all inauspiciousness and the fear of birth, old age, disease and death. Bhishma himself, the greatest of devotees and a master of dharma, chose to impart this hymn as his final and highest teaching.

ଅର୍ଥ:युधिष्ठिर ने पूछा — इस लोक में एक देव कौन है? एकमात्र परम आश्रय क्या है? किसकी स्तुति और अर्चना करके मनुष्य कल्याण प्राप्त करते हैं? समस्त धर्मों में आपके मत से श्रेष्ठतम धर्म कौन-सा है? और किसका जप करने से प्राणी जन्म-संसार के बन्धन से मुक्त होता है?

ଅର୍ଥ:भीष्म ने उत्तर दिया — जो सदा उद्यत रहकर जगत्प्रभु, देवों के देव, अनन्त पुरुषोत्तम की सहस्रनाम से स्तुति करता है — मेरे मत में यही समस्त धर्मों में श्रेष्ठतम धर्म है कि मनुष्य भक्तिपूर्वक सदा कमलनयन (विष्णु) की स्तुतियों से अर्चना करे।
