Vedic Reflections - Shri VishnusahasranAmam (Prelude)

We start by creating an image of Lord Vishnu in our mind......
Lord Vishnu resting on anandA with his consort, MahAlakshmi
 

sAntAkAram.....
bhujaga-sayanam
The One with the peaceful nature....
the One who rests on the great snake

padmanAbham....
suresam
The One whose navel is the root for the Holy Lotus....
The Lord of the Gods

visvAdhAram....
gagana-sadrisyam
The One who's as infinite as the spanning universe...
The One pervading as the sky

megha-varnam....
subhAngam
The One who's complexion is dark like the clouds
The One with the graceful body
 
LakshmikAntam....
kamalAnayanam
The One who is the husband of Goddess Lakshmi....
The One whose eyes resemble the petals of a lotus
 
yogihridhyAna-gamyam
The One who is found in the hearts of the yogis
vande vishnum bhava-bhaya-haram
The One, meditating upon whom, shall steal away all fears and differences from our mind....
sarva-lokaika-nAtham
The One who is the Lord of all Universe
O! Lord Vishnu...we meditate unto You...

Mere Bina (Lyrics, English Translation)

मेरे बिना (Mere Bina) CROOK OST Music - Pritam Singer - Nikhil D'Souza Lyrics - Kumaar MY RATING - 9/10 Reflections A very romantic western number by new comer Nikhil D'Souza. Pritam has crooned Pop hits by Darius and Enrqiue alike to create a magical ballad that hooks you to its smoothness the moment the song starts. Nikhil sounds like Atif at times, but nevertheless is a promsing find!   Lyrics (English Translation) Mere Bina Rehne laga hun Teri hawaon me Behne laga hun I have started living without you... I have started floating in the breeze that you are jaane main kaise tera hua hu mujhe to lagta hai main shayad tere dil ki dua hu Haan Tujhko jo paaya ahan To jeena aaya Ab ye lamha theher jaye tham jaye bas jaye hum Dono ke darmiyaaaaan I don't know how I have become yours I think I am the boon from your heart Yea! Now that I found you...I have learnt to live Now this moment may stop here at this very moment when the two of us are together
