For the first time Vishnu and Lakshmi Sahasranama (one thousand names) have been written in English rhyme. Lord Vishnu is the God of sustenance, the rajsik lord, personifying the embodiment of kingly qualities. Vishnu Sahasranama is Pithamah Bhishma’s katha—another great work found in Anushasana Parva of Mahabharat, written by Sage Vyas, the extraordinary author of Mahabharat, Puranas, and various Stotras. ???????? ???????? ? ?????????? ???? ????? ? ??????? ??????? ?????? ???????????????? ?? ? ? ?? ?
