P

is book has been primarily inspired by two pieces of work one,

mythths beautiful hand-written composition ofloks, for his grand-children, and mantrapushpam, the excellent compilation ofvedamantrsand stotrs, from Ramakrishna Mutt.

In this book, several wonderful stotras have been compiled. One ofthe aims of this book is to provide ready access to a number ofstotrsin a compact form. Ive oen had to refer to a bundle of books for eachstotram. is book, I hope, would prove to be really useful for peoplewho would like to carry around these stotrs when they travel around,or would like a handy small book containing all these stotrs. e otherimportant feature of this book is that all the stotrs are in devangar lipi.Ive oen had access to a large number ofstotrs, but in Tamil script. Ind the devangar lipi more conducive to correct pronunciation. ere

are several simple shloks in this book, which I am sure children wouldbe able to pick up easily. Stotrs such as Nma Rmyanam should cer-tainly be taught to children. Many of these stotras have been renderedwonderfully byrmat M. S. Subbulakshmi; one just needs to listen toher for both bhakti and inspiration. While the foremost importance isto be given to bhakti, one must certainly give importance to accuratepronunciation as well, and MSS is exemplary in that regard.

One should make it a point to chant at least few of these every day,and most of these in a month. One should certainly recite the VishnuSahasranmam everyday. Of course, it must be emphasised that onesnityakarm takesprecedenceoverallthese()

viii Preface

and one must make time for sandhyvandandi nityakarms and suchprayers everyday:

In Kaliyuga, foremost importance is given to nmasankrtanam,andhence,stotras such as these should be recited with bhakti, regularly:

ere are several people whom I must thank for their contributionsto this book. I cannot undermine the importance of the Sanskrit Doc-uments Website, which happens to be the source for almost all of thetexts contained in here. Many thanks to volunteers to build and presentsuch a wonderful collection online.

I must acknowledge the efforts of my friend Prasd, who has been in-

strumental (and almost wholly responsible) for the improved formattingin this book. I consulted him several times for help with X ELTEX. But forhis TEX macros, some of the alignments would have never happened! Imust also thank the writers of the soware ITranslator, which has beenthe hammer-and-nail for compiling this book. e other tool critical forthis book was X ELTEX, and it was indeed the release of MiKTEX 2.7 thatled me to experiment with X ELTEX, which I think has been a success.

I take this opportunity to seek the blessings of my app, amm, myguru Shri S. Ananthakrishnan, and mymm, who have inspired me andtaught me all that I know. I must denitely thankSketh too, who hasbeen inspirational in several ways.

I must specially thank myamm, who has encouraged and inspired mea lot through the course of compiling this book. I also must thank herfor proof-reading the text, and particularly helping with ymal dan-

dakam. anks are also due to my wife, for her support and encourage-ment throughout.

P

(S )

It is with great pleasure that I present the secondedition of this book.e major changes have been the inclusion of some large stotrs such asthe Saundarya lahar, Sankshepa Rmyanam and Shiva sahasranmam,as well as numerous smaller stotrs. e stotrs have also now been seg-regated into two parts, with the longer stotrs occupying the second part

of the book.I thank all those who have made use of the previous edition of the

book and have given me their feedback, which I hope has helped im-prove the content in the present edition. I thank my father-in-law, Shri.N. Venugoplan, for sending me the text of some rare stotrs. I also thankmy wife Mdhury, for meticulously proof-reading Saundarya lahar. IalsothankmyAmm, for suggesting the wonderful Durg pancharatnam,

composed by Mahaperival.I welcome suggestions for improvements please drop me a gmailat

karthik.raman to notify me of any comments/suggestions and even thesmallest of errors.
