One online site has it but there are lot of mistakes in the sanskrit. So I corrected as many errors as I could. Still some errorrs would have crept in. Please read it with discrenment and correct pronunciation.(wherever there should have been 'va' it is written 'ba' as per bangla pronunciation and where there should have been 'ba' it is written as 'va'.This is sanskritically not correct so I corrected it Apart from this there are minor grammatical errors like instead of 'sya' suffix there is 'sa' suffix which will change the meaning.So I effected corrections there too).However true devotion does not mind grammar or pronunciation.I dont want to be too fastidious and a nitpicking idiot and 'throw the baby out with the bathwater' as the saying goes... After many people emailed me , despite me pleading total incometence and anonymity and also my friend Pradeepjee advicing me today over phone to start a new website Iam planning on the following: all in my gurunatha's name...

Shree Vishotara Purane Shree Saligram Sila-stotram Invocation: Asya Shree saligrama strotra mantrasya Shree Bhagavan rishi Narayano Devata Anustup Chhandaha Shree Saligram strotra mantrasya jape Viniyogaha.

These silas are considered to be directly Lord Vishnu Himself and the person who worships or even keeps in the house or bathes the Salagram and drinks water or pour those waters on their head, that man becomes free from all sin and it prevents from untimely death. That person becomes free from all sin and all material disease. The most feared sin of Bramahatya ( killing of a Brahmin) is also washed away simply by worshiping the Saligram. (Narasimha shaligrama) “Snano Dakam Piben Nityam Chakrankita Sirot Vabam Partkshallya Sudham Tatoyam Bramha Hatya Byapohati //8// “Agnistomasahasnani Vajapaya Satanicha Samyak Phalama Bapnoti Visnornai Vedya Vakshina //9// That person who does snan (bathing) of saligram with chakra everyday get gets rid of all sin like Bramahatya, and if he drinks such water daily gets the equal boon of thousand of havan (fire sacrifices) of Lord Vishnu.

The sacred symbols of Sankha (conch), Chakra (disc), Gada (club), Kurma (tortoise) are printed on the saligram stones. Saligram with Sankha (conch) sign is considered to be Vamanrup (Vamandev) of Lord Vishnu, where as chakra in the middle is consider as Damodar saligram. Saligrams of different shapes; round, umbrella shape which has white lines are also available; worshipping this kind of saligram gives wealth and reputation in society. Flat shaped saligram creates sorrow in a family and saligram with sharp front side creates war - fighting and tension in family. “Lalate Shesha Vogastu Siropari Sukanchanam Chakrakanchanavarnanam VamaDevaschya Lakshnam//23// Vamaparbe Cha Bai Cakre Krishna Varnas tu Pingalam Laxinarshimhadevanam Prithak Varnastu Drisyate//24// Saligrams which have chakra around the head or in the forehead and rest parts are clean and smooth is considered very auspicious and this type is to be considered as Vamandev sila.
