mukundavandanam

Mukund Vandana by Animesh at Stutimandal

(Click on the above link for the full poem)

Sample: O Mukunda, Who is the cause of the Universe, Who is serene in form, Who is everything, Who is faultless, Who is adored by Śruti, Who is complete, Who is known as Visnu, Who is Brahman and Jīva, Who is beyond the metempsychosis ocean, Who is Krsna, Who is established only by the knowledge of tattva, Who is worthy of singing by knowledge and tāntrika treatises, and Who is victorious! I adore You.[1]

visnuvandanam

Vishnu Vandanam at Stutimandal

Sample: I adore Viṣṇu, Who is beyond the world, Who is the arrangement of the world, Who is the Lord of learned men, Who is the end of the world, Who is the beginning of the world, Who has no-one preceding, Who is resplendent, Who is worthy of praises, Who is free from knowledge, lack of knowledge or derivations from them, Who resides inside hearts as consciousness, Who is the splendor of the world, and Who is revered by destiny.[1]

vishnu_vandanam

Vishnu Vandanam at Stutimandal

Sample: I bow my head to Viṣṇu, Who is adorned with a conch-shell and a spinning discus (cakra), Who has diamond-studded ear-hoops, Who wears a yellow robe, Who has a yellow silken robe, Who has lotus-like eyes, Who has the Kaustubha jewel, in a garland, present at the chest, Who has four-arms, and Who has a mark of Lakṣmī in the chest.||1||
