ದೇವೀಂ ಸರಸ್ವತೀಂ ವ್ಯಾಸಂ ತತೋ ಜಯಮುದೀರಯೇತ್ ॥
Om. Salutations to the Supreme Self (Paramatman). Having bowed down to Narayana, and to Nara, the best of men, as well as to the Goddess Sarasvati and Sage Vyasa, one should then utter the word of victory (Jaya).
ಓಂ ಅಥ ಸಕಲಸೌಭಾಗ್ಯದಾಯಕಂ ಶ್ರೀವಿಷ್ಣುಸಹಸ್ರನಾಮಸ್ತೋತ್ರಮ್ ।

Om. Now begins the Shri Vishnu Sahasranama Stotram, which bestows all forms of prosperity and auspiciousness. Harih Om.

One should meditate upon Lord Vishnu, who wears white garments, who is of the color of the moon, who has four arms, and who has a serene and cheerful countenance, for the pacification of all obstacles.

I take refuge in Vishvaksena, whose attendants, led by the elephant-faced Ganesha and numbering more than a hundred, constantly destroy all obstacles.

ಪರಾಶರಾತ್ಮಜಂ ವನ್ದೇ ಶುಕತಾತಂ ತಪೋನಿಧಿಮ್ ॥ ೩॥
I bow down to Sage Vyasa, the great-grandson of Vashistha, the grandson of Shakti, the sinless son of Parashara, the father of Shuka, and an ocean of penance.

ಶ್ರೀವೈಶಮ್ಪಾಯನ ಉವಾಚ---
ಶ್ರುತ್ವಾ ಧರ್ಮಾನಶೇಷೇಣ ಪಾವನಾನಿ ಚ ಸರ್ವಶಃ ।
ಯುಧಿಷ್ಠಿರಃ ಶಾನ್ತನವಂ ಪುನರೇವಾಭ್ಯಭಾಷತ ॥ ೭॥
Shri Vaishampayana said: Having heard all duties (dharmas) in their entirety and all purifying practices from every perspective, Yudhishthira once again addressed the son of Shantanu (Bhishma).
ಯುಧಿಷ್ಠಿರ ಉವಾಚ---
ಕಿಮೇಕಂ ದೈವತಂ ಲೋಕೇ ಕಿಂ ವಾಪ್ಯೇಕಂ ಪರಾಯಣಮ್ ।
ಸ್ತುವನ್ತಃ ಕಂ ಕಮರ್ಚನ್ತಃ ಪ್ರಾಪ್ನುಯುರ್ಮಾನವಾಃ ಶುಭಮ್ ॥ ೮॥
Yudhishthira said: Who is the one supreme deity in the world? What is the sole supreme refuge? By praising whom and by worshipping whom do human beings attain auspiciousness and welfare?
ಕೋ ಧರ್ಮಃ ಸರ್ವಧರ್ಮಾಣಾಂ ಭವತಃ ಪರಮೋ ಮತಃ ।
ಕಿಂ ಜಪನ್ಮುಚ್ಯತೇ ಜನ್ತುರ್ಜನ್ಮಸಂಸಾರಬನ್ಧನಾತ್ ॥ ೯॥
Which dharma (duty) among all dharmas is, in your opinion, the supreme one? By chanting whose name or mantra does a living being get liberated from the bondage of the cycle of birth and worldly existence?

ಜಗತ್ಪ್ರಭುಂ ದೇವದೇವಮನನ್ತಂ ಪುರುಷೋತ್ತಮಮ್ ।
ಸ್ತುವನ್ ನಾಮಸಹಸ್ರೇಣ ಪುರುಷಃ ಸತತೋತ್ಥಿತಃ ॥ ೧೦॥
Bhishma said: A person, being ever-alert and active, should praise the Lord of the universe, the God of gods, the infinite, the Supreme Purusha (Purushottama), by chanting His thousand names.
ತಮೇವ ಚಾರ್ಚಯನ್ನಿತ್ಯಂ ಭಕ್ತ್ಯಾ ಪುರುಷಮವ್ಯಯಮ್ ।
ಧ್ಯಾಯನ್ ಸ್ತುವನ್ ನಮಸ್ಯಂಶ್ಚ ಯಜಮಾನಸ್ತಮೇವ ಚ ॥ ೧೧॥
And by always worshipping with devotion that same imperishable Purusha, meditating upon Him, praising Him, bowing down to Him, and performing worship unto Him alone.
ಅನಾದಿನಿಧನಂ ವಿಷ್ಣುಂ ಸರ್ವಲೋಕಮಹೇಶ್ವರಮ್ ।
ಲೋಕಾಧ್ಯಕ್ಷಂ ಸ್ತುವನ್ನಿತ್ಯಂ ಸರ್ವದುಃಖಾತಿಗೋ ಭವೇತ್ ॥ ೧೨॥
By constantly praising Lord Vishnu, who is without beginning or end, the Supreme Lord of all the worlds, and the overseer of the universe, one transcends all sorrows.
ಬ್ರಹ್ಮಣ್ಯಂ ಸರ್ವಧರ್ಮಜ್ಞಂ ಲೋಕಾನಾಂ ಕೀರ್ತಿವರ್ಧನಮ್ ।
ಲೋಕನಾಥಂ ಮಹದ್ಭೂತಂ ಸರ್ವಭೂತಭವೋದ್ಭವಮ್ ॥ ೧೩॥
He who is the patron of spiritual knowledge and seekers, the knower of all righteousness, the enhancer of the glory of the worlds, the Lord of the universe, the Great Being, and the ultimate source of the origin and existence of all living beings.
ಏಷ ಮೇ ಸರ್ವಧರ್ಮಾಣಾಂ ಧರ್ಮೋಽಧಿಕತಮೋ ಮತಃ ।
ಯದ್ಭಕ್ತ್ಯಾ ಪುಣ್ಡರೀಕಾಕ್ಷಂ ಸ್ತವೈರರ್ಚೇನ್ನರಃ ಸದಾ ॥ ೧೪॥
This I consider to be the supreme duty among all duties: that a person should always, with devotion, worship the lotus-eyed Lord (Vishnu) by chanting His praises.
ಪರಮಂ ಯೋ ಮಹತ್ತೇಜಃ ಪರಮಂ ಯೋ ಮಹತ್ತಪಃ ।
ಪರಮಂ ಯೋ ಮಹದ್ಬ್ರಹ್ಮ ಪರಮಂ ಯಃ ಪರಾಯಣಮ್ ॥ ೧೫॥
He who is the supreme, great effulgence; He who is the supreme, great penance; He who is the supreme, great Brahman; He who is the supreme, ultimate refuge.
ಪವಿತ್ರಾಣಾಂ ಪವಿತ್ರಂ ಯೋ ಮಙ್ಗಲಾನಾಂ ಚ ಮಙ್ಗಲಮ್ ।

Listen to the thousand names of that foremost Lord of the world, the master of the universe, Vishnu, which destroy all sins and fears, O King.
ಯಾನಿ ನಾಮಾನಿ ಗೌಣಾನಿ ವಿಖ್ಯಾತಾನಿ ಮಹಾತ್ಮನಃ ।
ಋಷಿಭಿಃ ಪರಿಗೀತಾನಿ ತಾನಿ ವಕ್ಷ್ಯಾಮಿ ಭೂತಯೇ ॥ ೧೯॥
I shall recite, for the well-being and prosperity of all, those well-known names of the Great Soul (Vishnu) which are based on His divine attributes and have been sung by the sages.
ಋಷಿರ್ನಾಮ್ನಾಂ ಸಹಸ್ರಸ್ಯ ವೇದವ್ಯಾಸೋ ಮಹಾಮುನಿಃ ।
ಛನ್ದೋಽನುಷ್ಟುಪ್ ತಥಾ ದೇವೋ ಭಗವಾನ್ ದೇವಕೀಸುತಃ ॥ ೨೦॥
The sage for these thousand names is the great sage Veda Vyasa. The meter is Anushtup, and the deity is the divine son of Devaki (Krishna).
ಅಮೃತಾಂಶೂದ್ಭವೋ ಬೀಜಂ ಶಕ್ತಿರ್ದೇವಕೀನನ್ದನಃ ।
ತ್ರಿಸಾಮಾ ಹೃದಯಂ ತಸ್ಯ ಶಾನ್ತ್ಯರ್ಥೇ ವಿನಿಯೋಜ್ಯತೇ ॥ ೨೧॥
"Amritanshudbhava" (He who is the source of the nectar-rayed moon) is the seed (Bija); "Devakinandana" (the son of Devaki) is the power (Shakti); "Trisama" (He who is praised by the three Sama hymns) is the heart (Hridaya); and this is consecrated for the purpose of attaining peace.
ವಿಷ್ಣುಂ ಜಿಷ್ಣುಂ ಮಹಾವಿಷ್ಣುಂ ಪ್ರಭವಿಷ್ಣುಂ ಮಹೇಶ್ವರಮ್ ।

Resolution (Sankalpa): I make this resolve to chant the divine thousand names of Vishnu for the pleasure of Lord Sri Krishna.
Now the Meditation (Dhyanam):
May Mukunda, who holds the discus, the lotus, the mace, and the conch in His hands, purify us. He is seated on a throne formed by garlands of pearls, located in the region of the milky ocean where the sandy shores gleam with pure gems. His body is adorned with pearls shining like crystal gems, and He is experiencing supreme bliss while being continuously showered with nectar by the pure, abundant white clouds formed above Him.
