TULASI STOTRA

[Guest guest]

TULASI STOTRAM

 

 

1. Prostrations to You, Tulasi, the Mother of the universe and beloved

consort of Lord Vishnu. It is due to You that gods such as Bramhaa and

others are engaged in activities of creation, preservation and dissolution.

 

 

2. Prostrations to You, Tulasi, the benevolent and dear to Lord Vishnu,

You are the giver of wealth and liberation.

 

 

3. Tulasi, please protect me from all the dangers everyday and at all

the times. You purify the devotees who sing or remember Your glories.

 

 

4. I bow my head to You, Tulasi devi, who brightens the body. Even

sinners will be freed from sins after seeing You.

 

 

5. Tulasi protects all moving and non-moving things in the universe. At

Your sight, You remove the sins of the sinful persons.

 

 

6. Prostrations to You, Tulasi, who helps to become free from the

strong bondage of Kaliyuga. You bestow happiness to all including women and

merchants.

 

 

7. There is nothing on this earth more divine than Tulasi. You have

sanctified the vaishnavas due to the companionship with the Lord Vishnu.

 

 

8. In this Kaliyuga when a sprout of Tulasi is offered on the head of

Lord Vishnu then it is the same as receiving all the blessings on devotee's

head.

 

 

 

9. In Tulasi all gods reside all the time. Hence worshipping Tulasi

means worship of all the gods.

 

 

10. Prostrations to You, Tulasi, the all-knower and consort of the

Supreme Being. You bestow all wealth. Please protect me from all sins.

 

 

11. This prayer with deep thoughts has been composed Sri Pundarika. Lord

Vishnu be worshipped daily be offering the beautiful petals of Tulasi.

Dharmaa, Ananaa, Devi, Devadevamanahpriya

 

 

13. Lakshmipriyasakhi, Devi, Dyouh, Bhoomi, Chala, Achala: These sixteen

names when sung by devotees,

 

 

14. They obtain the devotion to Lord Vishnu and also enter into His

abode at the end. Tulasi is also known as Bhoomi, Mahalakshmi, Padmini and

Sriharipriya.

 

 

15. Prostrations to Tulasi, You are dear friend of Lakshmi, benevolent,

remover of sins, giver of spiritual qualities, praised by Narada rishi and

Consort of Lord Naarayana.
