Vishnu Sahasranamam Final 2015 (1).pdf

MEANING :Meditate the Lord as the one who has no slip and fall.He is the most popularised and well-known one , the very lifeand the life-giver of all. He is the younger brother of Indra,the abode of waters and the one to be attached. He is neverunaware of anything and hence he is the one who is established.Explanation :1. Slip and fall occur due to error in procedure which ishuman and never divine. Since the Lord is an embodiment ofcontinuous awareness in others, he has no slip though otherssometimes may have due to their own unawareness towards Him.2. Since the Lord is all, and everyone knows something orother in this world, the Lord is known by all individuals as theirown branch of individual knowledge and Hence He is the oneknown by all. Gradually this knowledge of the one or many otherthings in the world leads beings to a knowledge of hisomnipresence.3. Life is the one which visits bodies to choose them as itsown abodes. It again leaves the bodies when the purpose is over.Hence it is the one form of the Lord who visits all and leaves all.Others are forms and life is the in-filling presence which lives informs. It is also the vital pulsation that makes its appearance anddisappearance in the very space. This cosmic pulsation causes thepulsation of respiration and heart-beat in us which is the sign oflife. Hence the Lord is the very life of the whole universe andeach individual.4. He is also the giver of life to the forms since He is theone who proposes to fill them with life. Bodies coming into lifecan never be caused by individuals since the causation is due tothe presence of the Lord as the vital awareness. Sometimes thereare individuals who give us life by saving us from great dangerslike disease and catastrophy. Once again, the presence of the Lordis to be recollected in them as the cause of their saving us. Honour137
