Story Behind Vishnu Sahasranamam Pooja

It is found in Mahabharata, the oldest Indian epic poem depicting the war between two royal families, Pandavas and Kauravas. During the war, the Pandavas approached Lord Krishna, an avatar of Lord Vishnu, requested him to protect them, and sought his guidance, resulting in the disclosing of Vishnu Sahasranama (thousand names of Vishnu).

An ancient text named Padma Purana also holds essential information regarding this puja. It is a collection of stories and anecdotes and various avatars of Lord Vishnu with their significance.

The prayer is believed to have immense power and can help devotees overcome obstacles and challenges in life. This spiritual practice in Hinduism protects us from negative energies and evil spirits and blessings for our overall well-being and success in our future life.

It also helps followers attain purification of the mind, body, and soul and connect to the divine presence. We grow more in our life spiritually as well as mentally. There have also been sayings that this prayer’s recitation helps attain salvation and liberation from the cycle of life and death.

Preparation of the Vishnu Sahasranamam Pooja

The materials for the ritual should also be prepared beforehand as they are a significant element for the success of the puja. Incense sticks, flowers, mango leaves, turmeric, Ganga Jal, akshata, kumkum, lamp, and ghee are some required items we provide at SmartPuja. For offerings to the lord, fruits, flowers, sweets, coconut, betel nut, curd, honey, sugar, milk (Panchamrita), camphor, etc., with Puja Samagri should be arranged by the devotee. A checklist for the same is often allotted to you before the Puja.

Here are a few things to keep in mind before performing the puja:

• Make sure to take a proper early morning bath before starting the puja and keep a fast,i.e., avoid eating anything for the entire day.
• You need to thoroughly wash your feet before entering the temple. 
• Do not offer borrowed flowers to the deity. 
• Do not keep anything in your mouth during the puja.

Performing the Pooja

While conducting the puja at home, it is necessary to follow a few guidelines in several steps: 

• After bathing, wearing clean clothes, and preparing for the puja in a calm and quiet place, you must pray for the deity’s invocation. 
• We create a divine aura and connection with the Almighty upon reciting this. Offering prayers to the lord is the second step of this puja, which the pandit will share with you. Prayers are a form of seeking forgiveness for wrongdoing and expressing gratitude towards the divine being. 
• After that, we sincerely offer the deity flowers, fruits, water, and other items while reciting the mantras and stotras, exhibiting our devotion and love by surrendering ourselves.
• Further, we must recite a thousand names of Vishnu with focus and devotion to indeed receive enlightenment and protection. Each name has its own meaning and represents various aspects of life; this act of recitation helps in our understanding of the nature of the divine. 
• Finally, we perform the Aarti to acknowledge His presence and seek His blessings and distribute Prasad among devotees present to share the grace received from the lord.
