Lord Maha Vishnu Stotram – Sri Venkateswara Stotram Meaning:
Victory to the lord of Venkata Mountain,
Whose blue body coated with vermillion
From the breasts of Lakshmi appears red,
And who is the lord of the universe,
With eyes reminding us of the lotus flower.
Please protect me oh., Lord of Vrusha mountain,
Who is the crown jewel among all the gods,
With four faces, six faces and five faces,
And who is the ultimate treasure who loves,
Those who come and surrender to him,
Greatly trembling for having committed various sins,
And also trembling for having done hundreds of wrongs,
I have rushed speedily for surrendering to you, Lord of Vrusha,
And so Oh, Hari, please shower on me your eternal mercy,
There is none greater to you, Oh Lord of Lakshmi,
Who is merciful by nature residing on Venkata mountain,
Who blesses his devotees with much more than they desire,
And who is saluted by other gods and books that show the way.
There is no comparison to the son of Vasudeva,
Who attracts the gopa maidens,
by music from his flute,
And fulfills the desire of each gopi and gives her pleasure,
Much More than hundreds of crores of penances,
And prayers addressed to crores of similar Gods..
Become the boon giver, Oh sea of mercy,
Oh matchless doer of the good, Oh son of Dasaratha,
Oh only archer of the world, oh god with a brave heart,
Oh Rama the lord of Raghu clan,
And Oh God who is the Lord of Lakshmi.
I seek refuge in the great Rama of Raghu clan,
Whose pretty hands are held by the daughter of earth,
Who has a pretty lotus-like face, similar to the moon,
And who as a king walks at night and destroys darkness like the sun.
You are with a pleasant face, good heart,
Very easy to reach and giver of pleasures,
Along with your brothers and with a never-ending stream of arrows,
So leaving you, I would never at any time, even for a second,
Pray anyone else, Oh Jewel of the Raghu clan.
I do not have any Lord except Venkatesa,
I remember and remember only Lord Venkatesa,
So Hey Venkatesa, be pleased with me,
I request you to give me only what you like.
I was far away from your two lotus-like feet,
And have come with a wish to serve them,
And so I request and request you, Lord Venkatesa,
To please allow me to do good service to you.
Please pardon, please pardon,
Oh crest jewel of the Sesha mountain,
This ignorant sinner of the sins committed,
Due to sheer helplessness, Oh Hari.

Lord Maha Vishnu Stotram – Sri Venkateswara Prapatti Meaning
I salute Goddess Lakshmi,
who is the Mistress(queen) of the Universe,
who is the most beloved of Vishnu,
the Lord of Venkatachala,
who is fond of ever dwelling in His(Vishnu’s) chest,
who is the promoter of forgiveness,
who has sprout-like hands decorated with Lotuses,
who is seated on the Lotus,
(or seated in the posture of a Lotus, Padmasana),
who shines with virtues as mercy
and who is the mother of the Universe!
One possessed of Sri(wealth)!
Ocean of Compassion!
Creator of the whole Universe!
The Omniscient!
The Almighty!
Affectionate to those that bow(to Thee)!
The Principal(of the animate and inanimate world)!
Lord! easily attainable by persons of good conduct!
The Divine Tree(parijata) to those who seek refuge!
Venkatesa! I resort to Thy feet.
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet
which add fragrance to the smell of the sweet-smelling flowers
offered (decorated) upto the anklets,
which are well-placed and handsome,
and which are enjoyable anew,
even though they are ever-enjoyed.
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet
which induce us to ascribe to the hurriedly placed beautiful feet
the equality of lotuses,
which have just blossomed
and have well-emanating fragrance
and dense redness
(feet remind us their similarity with the lotuses),
and (state), as it were,
that comparing Lord’s feet with the lotuses
is a bold (hasty) step.
(It means the feet of the Lord are superior several times to the Lotuses and comparing them is a hasty action.)
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet
whose soles bear the marks of the Supreme spirit
like the Banner,
Pot of Ambrosia,
Umbrella,
Thunderbolt,
Grass,
Lotus,
Divine Tree(Kalpaka Vrksha),
Conch,
and the Disc, which are in the form of auspicious lines.
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet
whose reddish soles have surpassed
the lustre of the Rubies(padmaraga stones),
or red lotuses,
whose exteriors have excelled
the brilliance of the Sapphires(indranila stones)
and whose nails of the toes
have out-beaten the Moonlight.
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet
which, though massaged with love and apprehension
by the sprout-like hands of Lakshmi,
are at once experiencing fatigue,
which are very charming,
and the tenderness of which
is not within the scope of speech or mind.
I seek the refuge of Sri Venkateswara’ss feet,
which have become extremely red
in the account of union with red-ness of
the sprout-like hands of Divine Queens
like Sridevi,
Bhudevi,
and also Niladevi,
who has greatness like that of Sridevi and Bhudevi.
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet,
which receive as it were,
the grand nirajana (arati)
by the multitude of lustres
of effulgent nine gems
(studded) on the edge of the crowns
of Brahma, Siva and others,
who bow their heads daily.
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet,
which are extolled (in the Rg Veda)
as “Visnoh parame pade” (in the most exalted abode of Vishnu),
which are, (again) extalled therein
as “madhva utsa” (meaning the fountain the honey)
as extremely enjoyable
and which are indicated as such by
the show of the palm of Thy hand.
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet,
which were shown to Arjuna by Thee(Krishna),
the worthy charioteer of Arjuna,
as ‘seek their refuge’,
and which are now again, here, (on Venkatadri),
pointed out to me (‘as seek their refuge’)
by Thy hand.
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet,
which are placed alike
on my (this sinner’s) head,
on the hood of the serpent Kaliya,
in the thick forests,
on the peak of the Venkatachala,
in the Upanishads,
and in the hearts of the sages
who meditate on God only.
(It means the Lord exists everywhere.)
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet,
around which the scattered flowers
remain unwithered and blossoming,
(The feet) which are as ornament
to the Venkatachala
and (The feet) by which
the hearts and eyes of all persons are delighted.
I seek refuge of Sri Venkateswara’s feet,
which are to be seen at first
by the people that salute (them),
which are nectar-like
as the mother’s breasts are to the baby,
which can be compared to each other,
and which are incomparable to anything else.
I seek refuge of Thy feet
which were shown to me by the sage Manavata,
the sage whose feet are always worshipped
by the Sattvic people (men of Sattva guna)
and whose mild, merciful glances
enable (men) to cross the ocean of tranmigration. (samsara)
When Thou art a means (upaya) to the devotees
for the attainment of the Supreme Abode (Liberation);
Lakshmi brings about this.
When Thou becometh the object of attainment (prapya),
Lakshmi too appears to be so,
resorting to Thee always,
Thou art of pure, faultless qualities.
I become servant to Thee and not to myself at any time.

Lord Maha Vishnu Stotram – Sri Venkateswara Mangalasasanam Meaning
May all auspiciousness shower on Srinivasa of Venkatagiri! He is the Lord of Lakshmi and is the rich mine of all auspiciousness. He is the immeasurable wealth for all those, who seek Him.He has chosen the Venkatam hills for His eternal residence.
May all auspiciousness shower on Sri Venkatesa, the eye of all the Universes! Over the eyes are His beautiful eyebrows and over them is His endearing forehead region.When Sri MahA Lakshmi, His divine consort, glances at this beautiful face of Sri Venaktesa, She Herself is dismayed and overcome by the matchless beauty of Her Lord’s face.
The divine feet of Sri Venaktesa adorn the peak of the Thiruvenkatam hills. These feet empower the Thiruppathi hills to become a source of all blesisngs to the devotees of Srinivasa. Let the world’s Supreme auspiciousness come the way of Sri Venkatesa.
There is no one on this earth, who has not been overcome by the supreme beauty of Lord Venkatesa. Every one of His limbs are celebrated for their unmatchable beauty. It is no wonder He enchants His devotees with His soundharyam. Let no evil eye fall on Him and let the world’s supreme auspiciousness come His way.
Lord Venkateswara is the embodiment of the five supreme principles celebrated by the Upanishads. These are Satyathvam (eternal truth), Jn~Athvam (True Knowledge), Anantathvam (Eternal presence), Amalathvam (blemishlesness)and Aanandhathvam (Eternal Bliss). Sri Venkatesa is the Parabrahmam in whom all the above five attributes find their home. He is the One, who is resident in the heart lotus of all living beings. Let no harm come to Him and may he be blessed with all auspiciousness!
Lord Venkatesa comprehends every thing without anyone’s help. He is Omnipresent.He is the residual force
after every thing is destroyed by the supreme deluge (PraLayam). He is easy to reach.He has the most auspicious gunas. Let all blessings befall Sri Venkatesa!
Wherever the Upanishads use the word “Para Brahman”, they have in mind Sriman NaarAyaNan, who stands on
top of the Thiruvenaktam hills as Srinivasan. There is nothing that He can not attain, when He desires it. He is all powerful.There is no one in any world, who can disobey His command without incurring His
wrath. No atom vibrates in this Universe without His empowerment. Let all auspiciousness befall Lord Venkatesa of Thirumalai-Thiruppathi hills!
Lord Venkatesa is celebrated for the divine beauty of His archa vigraham worshipped at Thirumalai. He
is also revered for His attributes as well as His Aathma svarUpam or Para Brahmam aspects. There has
never been any one in the past or present, who have been satiated from looking at the matchless physical
beauty or thinking about His incomparable anantha kalyana gunas. In future also, it is unlikely that
we would meet any one, who will fully understand the Sri Venkatesa Tatthvam or Svaroopam. Let all
MangaLAs accumulate and reach the divine feet of Lord Venkatesa!
Lord Venkatesa! Your right hand has a varadha mudhra (gesture). That gesture points to the direction of
Your divine feet. It appears that this mudhra reveals Your secret that Your holy feet are the sole means
for deliverance from the ills of samsara through the act of surrender (Saranagathi) unto them. Let all
Mangalas come Your way as the reveler of Saranagathi rahasyam out of Your infinite mercy through this mudhra!
Lord Venkatesa looks at the world with His eyes full of infinite mercy and compassion. The world and its denizens respond with supreme joy; their happiness is comparable to the joy resulting from repeated immersions in a wave-laden river of nectar. The world and its lives are rejuvenated and energized by the power of that merciful look. Let all Mangalas fall on the supreme abode of Daya, Sri Venkatesa!
Lord Venkatesa has the most beautiful body, which is adorned by fragrant garlands, powerful weapons
and lovely clothes. He wipes out the sorrows of all of His devotees. Let all auspiciousness shower on
the beautiful Thirumeni of Sri Venkatesa!
Sriman Naarayanaa got tired of His abode in Sri Vaikuntam and abandoned it in favor of a new residence on the banks of Swami Pushkarani at Thirumalai. There, He has incarnated as Sri Venkatesa and protects forever His dear devotees; there, He also sports with Sri Maha Lakshmi and has given Her a preferred seat of residence on His chest and thereby acquired the name of Srinivasan. Let all Mangalams befall Srinivasa of Swami Pushkarani!
Sri Venkatesa resides in the heart lotus of great BhakthAs like Sri Manavala MaamunigaL. He is the indweller(antharyami) of all living beings. Let all auspiciousness come the way of Sri Venkatesa, who is the succor and sustenance of all Bhaagavathas!
All of my Acharyas (preceptors), their Acharyas, and the other Acharyas have sung the glory of Sri Venkatesa’s auspicious attributes from time immemorial. Adiyen’s praise of His Kalyana gunas is therefore nothing new and does represent an isolated act. Adiyen joins with my Acharyas and predecessors in wishing Sri Venkatesa all auspiciousness!
" Om Namo Venkatesaya "
