I adore Him.[7] *

I adore Him.[8] * Phalasruthi Idham yasthu nithyam samadhaya
chitham, Padeth ashtakam kashta haram muraare, Savishnur vishokam druvam yathilokam, Jarajanmasokam punar vindathe no.* Having collected mind, that who regularly studies these eight-verses — which are like the garland of Murāri — he goes to the world of Viṣṇu, without doubt and sorrows, and He never again partakes the pain of old-age or birth.[9] * Iti Shree Paramahamsa Swami Brahmanandam virchitam Hari stotram _/\_ * Poet: Brahmānanda Source: Bṛhatstotraratnākaraḥ — Paṇḍitapustakālaya, Vārāṇasī (Translator: Animesh Kumar) ![]() **
