Sri Lakshmi Narasimhar Mantra Rajapada Stotram

Sri Mantra Raja Pada Stotram, as Kumudham Jodhitam's A.M.Rajagopalan(A.M.R) puts it, is the King of all Mantras.  Chanting this mantra on a daily basis, works wonders. This is my personal experience. I'm sure everyone can benefit from this, if we do it with whole-hearted belief.



Lyrics and Meaning of Mantra Raja Pada Stotram:

Shree Eeshvara Uvaacha

Vritthotphulla visaalaaksham vipak shakshayadeekshitam 


Ninaadatrasta vishvaandam Vishnum UGRAM namaamyaham  1

He who is having big and round eyes, He who has taken a vow to kill the enemies, He who by His fierce roars is shaking the entire world, to such a ferocious Lord, I offer my salutations. (1)


Sarvaira vadhyataam praaptam sabalaugham ditessutham 
Nakhaagraih sakaleechakre yastam VEERAM namaamyaham 2

He who with His sharp nails tore to pieces the asura, the son of Diti who could not be killed by anyone along with His large armies. To such a valorous person, I offer my salutations. (2)


Paadaavashtabddha paataalam moordhaavishta trivishtapam 
Bhuja-pravishtaashta-disam MAHAAVISHNUM namaamyaham 3

I offer my salutations to Maha Vishnu, whose feet touch the nether lands, whose forehead touches the heaven and whose hands spread in all directions. (3)


Jyoteem shyakrendu nakshatra- jvalanaadeenyanukramaat 
Jvalanti tejasaa yasya tvam JVALANTAM namaamyaham  4

He after whose luster the luminary bodies, the Sun, the Moon, the Stars and Fire are effulgent and are shining, to that resplendent One I offer my salutations. (4)


Sarvendriyairapi vinaa sarvam sarvatra sarvadaa 
yojaanaati namaamyaadyam tamaham SARVATOMUKHAM 5

He who knows everything, all the time, and at all places, without the help of the senses, to such primal person who has faces in all directions, I offer my salutations.(5)


Naravath Simha vachaiva yasya roopam mahathmanaha:
Mahashatam MahaDhamshtram Tham NRUSIMHAM Namamyaham 6

To that Form of the Lord, which is half man and half lion, complete with the mane, the canine teeth, to such a divine Lord Nrsimha, I offer my salutations. (6)


Yannaama-smaranad bheetaa bhootha bhetaala raakshasaah 
Rogaadyaascha pranaschhanti BHEESHANAM tam namaamyaham 7

By the mere thought of whose name, devils, demons, asuras get frightened, acute diseases get cured, to such a frightening One, I offer my salutations. (7)


Sarvopi yam samaasritya sakalam bhadramasnute 
Sriyaa cha bhadrayaa jushto yastam BHADRAM namaamyaham 8

I offer my salutations to the Lord, the repository of good things, worshipping whom all the people are able to obtain auspicious things. (8)


Saakshaat svakaale sampraaptam Mrityum satrugananvitham, 
Bhaktaanaam naasayed yastu MRITYU MRITYUM NAMAAMYAHAM 9

He who is "Death to Death" and He who destroys death and hosts of enemies of the devotees by arriving at the right moment, to Him I offer my salutations. (9)

Namaskaaraatmakam yasmai vidhaaya atma nivedanam 
Tyaktaduhkho’khilaan kaamaan asnute tam namaamyaham 10

I bow down to the One by offering obeisance to whom in the form of One’s own self, people get rid of all miseries and obtain their desired objects.  (10)

Daasabhootassvatah sarve hyaatmaanah paramaatmanah 
Atoham api te daasah iti matvaa namaamyaham 11

All the living beings are, by nature, servants of the Supreme Being, I am prostrating to You, with the awareness that I am also for the same reason, Your servant. (11)

Sankarenaadaraat proktam padaanaam tatva Nirnayam 
Trisandhyam yah pathet tasya shree vidya ayyshya vardhate 12

The meaning of the words had been explained by Lord Siva out of affection. 
Whosoever reads this hymn with faith, thrice a day (at Sunrise, mid-day and evening) would have a great increase in prosperity (shree) knowledge (vidya) longevity (Ayush) (12)

Ithi ShreeMandraRajaPatha Stotram Sampoornam.

    1. Hi Priya,

      Sorry for the delay, I visit this site once in a new moon, 'cos I keep track of my new blog 'Singapore Chettinad Recipes', as I've mentioned.

      You can recite the entire Sloka, all the 12 verses together at once, then move on to repeat 12 times. I can guarantee it's very effective, my friend personally experienced this, she was trying for a new job for quite some time, she recited and got the new job. Better than the previous one, she happily told me about this. Do whole-heatedly, you yourself will experience. God bless you!

  2. namaste priya ji

    First do we have to recite the whole stotram 12 times and then recite all the 12 verses individually 12 times or only the whole stotram 12 times?

    Thanks
    Vidisha
