Sri Krishna Sthothram by Dharmaraja – Bhrama Vaivarthapuranam - Lyrics and meanings



|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||











Sri Dharma speaks “  Supreme Lord Krishna who is Lord Vishnu, he is Vasudeva who is unconquerable and has pleasing disposition, he is Paramathma who is supreme soul/ paramount, he is the Lord of cowherds of Vraja, he is  dearest Lord of young maidens of cowherds of Vraja, he is divine personified as cowherd, he is the protector of cows, he is omnipresent/powerful/eternal/mighty Lord, he is  Lord of cows, he has dwelling places where the cattles are assembled, he is dearest darling of cowherds, he is decked in feathers of peacock and carries stick, he is merrily settled in the middle of cows, cowherds and beautiful young maidens of Vraja, he is foremost among the cowherds, he is Purushoththama/flawless, I shall meditate upon supreme Lord Krishna who is sinless and most attractive, he has the complexion of dark clouds, he is serene and charismatic, I shall recite the glories of supreme Lord who is seated on the majestic throne decorated in various gems, he is eulogized by Lord Bhrama, Lord Vishnu and Lord Maheshvara.”  In this way Dharmaraja eulogized the glory of supreme Lord Krishna in twenty four sacred names, whoever reads or listens to it during the hours of dawn would be blessed with happiness and success in endeavours, whoever utter the sacred name Hari during the hours of death bed would attain the abode of Lord Hari and remain in the service of Lord Hari, it provides righteousness and Chathurvarga/Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha, all the sins accumulated would get vanished,  all the fears , miseries and sorrows would disappear like serpent before Vainatheya/Garuda.
